FDs complete 25 years’ service with CPJ Field & Co

Chris Stringer, principal funeral director at CPJ Field & Co’s Sussex Coast offices, and Sid Toop, funeral director at Constable and Toop, have completed 25 years of committed service with the company.

Chris Stringer (pictured left) started working for the Field family 25 years ago, as part of the Great Southern Group. In 1995, he moved with the family to CPJ Field & Co, setting up Christopher Stringer Funeral Service on the High Street in Rottingdean. He has been a funeral director in Rottingdean for 30 years, working with branches including Christopher Stringer, Attree & Kent, Cooper & Son and SE Skinner & Sons.

Sid Toop started working with the Field family business in 1974, and in 1995 he established Toop Brothers Funeral Directors in Grove Park and Lewisham. In 2002, the business combined with the well respected firm of J Constable in Honor Oak and Penge to create Constable & Toop Funeral Directors. There are now three branches in Bromley, Belvedere and Forest Hill.

Colin Field (pictured right), chairman of CPJ Field & Co, said: “Supporting our colleagues through their career is something we are 100 per cent committed to and we would like to congratulate both Chris and Sid on this significant long-standing service achievement. They are both valued members of the CPJ Field & Co team and show unwavering passion and commitment to the business.”
