5 Malcolm Harrison 15th Jan 2024

We are so glad we used W T Dunbar as our funeral directors.
They took us through the whole process, options and lots of things we hadn’t even considered. At the time we needed as much support with this as possible.
At the Queensferry Road branch, Jackie was so supportive and helpful with the organisational side of everything. Both Paul, who took us through the service, and Amanda the celebrant they recommended were first class.
I thoroughly recommend using W T Dunbar.

From the moment we walked through the door , Jackie put us at ease. She was very professional and kind, nothing was too much trouble for her and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is most definitely an asset to the company.
Everything went smoothly and to plan on the day, which really helped under the circumstances .
On the day of the funeral the staff were great, particularly Paul. They were immaculately turned out . I’d been at another funeral where the staff looked really scruffy with ill fitting suits.They were respectful and friendly, again nothing was too much trouble for them. All true professionals .
I would certainly highly recommend WT Dunbar Blackhall.
