The care & support given to myself & the whole family was excellent. Gillian could not have been more supportive, treating my father with dignity & helping us every step of the way, she is a credit to your company. The day of the funeral was without fault, David was extremely professional whilst keeping the personal touch that is so needed. I would not hesitate to recommend your services (although I hope I will not need them again personally!)
