A G Butler & Son on Green Lane is part of West & Coe, Dagenham's oldest funeral business, founded in 1903 by John West and Harry Coe. Now run by the third and fourth generations of the West family, including Chairman Jeremy West and his son Jamie, the firm describes itself as independent, family-owned and rooted in community, with offices situated across Essex and East London.
The firm follows the SAIF Code of Practice and is regulated under Financial Conduct Authority standards through its funeral plan partnership with Golden Charter. Services span traditional funerals and repatriation to horse-drawn carriages and probate and wills support, alongside a wide choice of coffins and caskets - from traditional wood to eco-conscious and contemporary designs - vehicle options including alternative hearses and limousines, memorial keepsakes and urns, and pre-paid funeral plans.
Their H.O.P.E. bereavement programme, launched in 2006, provides ongoing support for grieving families, reflecting the firm's stated values of pride, compassion and respect, and its promise of unwavering support guiding families through every step of the process.
