    Stephen McCosh Funeral Directors treated us with compassion, kindness and care from the very first meeting. They explained everything so well and kept us informed at every point, from organising the obituary, the order of service, the music for the crematorium and guiding us through what would happen on the day of the funeral as well. The staff were professional, respectful and compassionate towards us and very well organised, nothing was too much trouble for them.
