Our late Mother's funeral went like clockwork because of the efficiency, good communication, and very personal touch from Chris Legg, which gave us confidence, nothing was too much trouble.

Outstanding service from everyone particularly Tim who provided so much extra help and assistance. For example on the day of the funeral a family member had forgotten to confirm the flowers. Tim amd the florist worked tirelessly to do the bouquet in the morning. It did look stunning. Everything ran smoothly. Thanks to everyone again for making our late Mother's day a special one.

Chris Legg handled my dad’s funeral with care, warmth and incredible attention to detail.  I can’t thank him enough for making such a sad and difficult time so much more bearable.  He is a true gentleman and a huge, amazing asset to A J Wakelys.  Thank you Chris for all that you did to make dad’s funeral so wonderfully personal and unique.

Helping to find the right celebrant to refining the order of service and finding the right florist, even scouring the right music from rough descriptions of do you know this tune by I think so and so.
