A fantastic service from beginning to end which felt was very personal and heartfelt. Very professional but above all empathetic which put everyone at ease through the most emotional of occasions. We would thoroughly recommend Andrew Grey to anyone as nothing was too much trouble and we were kept informed from beginning to end.

    Words cannot express my gratitude.  From the outset Andrew and his team demonstrated a level of understanding,  caring and helpfulness, that meant we could be confident we were in safe hands.

    Throughout the process Andrew communicated considerately and with compassion  to ensure all the many tasks came together on the day to deliver a memorable ceremony.

    I can’t recommend Andrew and his team enough,  and would thoroughly recommend them.

  • 5 Wendy Collingwood 11th Jul 2021

    We cannot thank Andrew, Kay and the team enough for caring for Mam so well , for guiding us so efficiently and supporting us so sensitively, through the arrangements and on the day itself.  We would not hesitate in recommending your company. From the first emotional phone call, we felt we were in expert hands and could focus on our loss. Kay, in particular, was exceptional and we couldn’t have faced the day without her. She looked after every member of the family and made last minute arrangements swiftly. calmly and respectfully. The funeral was perfect, included all of Mam’s wishes and went without a hitch-because of Kay’s attention to detail and expert planning. I thank you for being there for me, 24-7 and all the caring phone calls after the funeral. We are forever grateful. From the entire family of Mrs Sandra Taylor.
