About Roy Quinton Funeral Directors
Roy Quinton founded Roy Quinton Funeral Directors in 1992, where Roy’s son Scott later joined him, after gaining local experience in the profession at Wednesfield.
Over the years Roy Quinton’s has flourished, gaining recognition across the Walsall area and expanding to branches at Bushbury and Tettenhall Wood, Wolverhampton.
The teams at our Tettenhall Wood, Bushbury and Leamore funeral homes will provide advice at every stage of the funeral planning process, and will arrange an individual and unique funeral to help you celebrate the life of your loved one. We have our own on-site service venue.
Here at Roy Quinton Funeral Directors we also offer an affordable prepaid funeral plan, Choice, so that you can arrange and pay for a funeral in advance. This will protect your family from rising costs and remove uncertainty about your wishes.
If you would like to talk to us about planning a funeral, or our Choice plan, please come and see us in any of our funeral homes, or if you’d rather we can arrange a home visit. We’re also available 24 hours a day on the phone so if you need anything please don’t hesitate to call your local funeral home.

Katie Freeman
Funeral Director
Katie says “I feel highly honoured to be included in a family’s bereavement; therefore each day is a proud moment for me.”
“The loss of a loved one is something we will all face in our lives; it is a very difficult time. I take great pride in providing a service to help ensure arrangements are as stress free as possible. I feel I build a unique bond with each and every one of our families. Many of our clients become friends and regularly pop in for a chat and cup of tea well after the funeral date.

Scott Quinton
Funeral Director and Embalmer
Scott started working in the funeral industry in his school holidays at the age of 13.
After leaving school, he joined one of the larger funeral groups and gained a wide range of experience whilst working all over the Midlands. He then left to work at the Royal Newcross Hospitals and Wednesfield Mortuaries.
His father started Roy Quinton Funeral Directors and during this time he worked for him in his holidays and out of hours. Scott then returned to the family business to help his father Roy full-time. He is a qualified embalmer and has experience in almost all aspects of the funeral industry.
He says “Nothing in this job surprises me anymore and the change over the years from when I first started is vast with the way people celebrate the life of a loved one.
Over the years I have made many good friends in my job, from the people I work with and the people that I have helped through this time in need.
I would like to think that I look after people’s family as if they were one of my own.”
In Scott’s spare time he enjoys being with family in the country side and riding his motorbike.
