Walter H Squires & Son was founded in Tiverton in 1933 by Walter H Squires, a local wheelwright, and remains a family-owned business now run by the third generation with 145 years of combined family experience. The Exwick Road branch in Exeter continues that tradition, offering direct cremation, attended funerals, and bespoke services to families across the city, built on the firm's motto: "From Tradition & Integrity Comes Peace of Mind."
Every member of staff is a full-time professional trained and certified by the Independent Funeral Directors College, and the firm prides itself on being one of the few local independents staffed entirely by qualified funeral professionals. With 24/7 availability, the Exeter team supports families through every stage of arranging a funeral with patience, integrity, and genuine local knowledge.
