    I can’t thank Stephen McCosh funeral directors enough. From the first day we went into their office we were made to feel so welcome. Lindsay was amazing, and so caring. They helped us with everything. They also kept in contact right on up until the day of my Mum’s funeral. On the day of the funeral, the care and respect these guy’s had was overwhelming. We certainly Will highly recommend Stephen to everyone. Thanks again

  • 5 Alan Garbutt 16th May 2023

    Our 13 year old daughter died suddenly and I’ve spent a few days trying to come up with the right words for this review . There simply are not enough superlatives to describe the professionalism and dedication of this funeral director’s. They went way beyond our expectations and took control of everything in a time when we were lost and grieving. 
    We will forever be in their debt and would definitely recommend them to everyone in the future.
