When Oliver arranged my beloved Mother's funeral in August I could not have imagined that 2 months later I would need his help to arrange my beloved Father's funeral. As you can imagine this has been the most difficult time of my life but once again Oliver and his team have been with me every step of the way. Oliver arranged everything with the minimum of fuss and great sensitivity. To be able to have the same Vicar made the service so much more personal and the flowers were beautiful. On the day of the funeral Oliver and his team were there to help and support me and my family and I can't thank him enough for helping me through this most difficult time.
