Thank you all so much for your excellent communication and service. I am overwhelmed by how well the bears have turned out and reflect each aspect of my fathers life.
I appreciate the extra mile in which you have taken to ensure the bears arrived in time for his funeral and the ‘hat’ was a wonderful surprise and finished off dancing bear perfectly.
I will be gifting the bears to my 3 daughters the morning of the funeral and they will carry them for the service giving them comfort of their beloved Grandad.

Dear All
I have just received the memory bear we have had made for our daughter who is moving to Canada. I cannot thank you enough. It is beautiful and so much more fantastic than I could ever have imagined. The chicken head from the dog toy on the back of the bear’s head is nothing short of a stroke of genius 😁😁. I have shed a tear or two over it and I know Beth will adore it. Your service, thoughtfulness and attention to detail in addressing my requests are beyond my expectations. Thank you so much.
Kind regards

Hello,
I have just received my delivery. What can I say but you are just incredible. I just knew from your website that you were caring and empathetic people and you have so proved me right. The bears are absolutely wonderful and far better than I could have imagined or hoped for.
It is quite poignant that they arrived today. Completion on my parents’ house is today. Our family home of 60+ years starts a new chapter but so many happy memories will live on through the bears. Please thank your staff for the compassion they have shown and thank you for fulfilling my dreams.
Thank you so much

Hi there, I am just writing to let you know how very happy I am with the bears you made for my mum and grandma.
I’m astounded by the quality and detail in them.
And so thoughtful that you did a bow tie in the other shirt for each bear so they have a bit of both items.
I am going to have one very happy mum and grandma on Christmas Day.
Thank you so so much.

Hi
The bear for my mum arrived this morning. Words can’t express how grateful I am! I had a couple done last year and they were wonderful but this surpasses any hopes and expectations! It was my dad’s fleece from a cruise and was all my mum had left of his 🙂 I can’t wait to see her face when she opens it!
Please pass on my heartfelt thanks to whoever designed/ made the bear 🐻 They are super talented!

I can not express how amazing and special my two Tiller bears are! After my grandad passed away I decided to purchase a Tiller bear for myself and my nan as a way to keep my grandad close. I was nearly in tears when the bears arrived! The quality is amazing, the design is amazing and the whole idea is so special and I now feel I have my grandad with me always. I recommend Tiller and Co 100% the products are worth every penny and more. The customer service is excellent as well! Thank you so much

A beautiful cherished memory of our parents. Had to wait almost a year to all get together to have our bears. It was so lovely to see everyone cuddle their bears and chat about the memories of the clothes their bears were made from. Each of the 7 bears were just perfect , individual and beautifully
made. Thank you

Good Evening,
I just wanted to say a massive thank you to the team who created my beautiful bears from my Dad’s clothing. The bears arrived today.
I was overwhelmed at both bears, I was very emotional to see my dads clothing on the bears and how it had been put together, the quality, standard of workmanship and how you had taken into consideration my wishes, incorporating everything into my bear and the bear I ordered for my mum.
It really is unbelievable, I can’t thank you enough. I will treasure my bear and I know when my mum gets her bear she will be very emotional but she’ll love it.
I will definitely be ordering another bear made from my little boys baby clothes.
Thank you so much, I absolutely love them!!
