Caring and Reliable Family Run Funeral Service Established in 1888 A. Waite & Son is still run by the Waite family and is one of the few Independent Funeral Directors still in existence in Leeds. Alison Turnbull, nee Waite, joined A. Waite & Son in 2000 and is the fifth generation of the Waite family to work in the business. Since her Father, Andrew Waite's, death in 2008 she has been running the business and had sole responsibility for the arranging and conducting of all funerals since this time. In June 2013 A. Waite & Son have welcomed her husband, Scott Turnbull, to the business. “I am pleased my husband, Scott, has agreed to work with us as it strengthens our business and gives us the opportunity to help more families in their time of need". Once you have made contact with us it is our priority to ensure that your instructions and needs are fully arranged and carried out with care and dignity.
