My family has used James Summers Funeralcare on numerous sad occasions for which I have attended four and I have no intention of using any other Funeral Service as they have provided an excellent service and always given a very professional aspect to any problems that may occur through the organisation and preparation to deliver the perfect send off. Very friendly staff providing an exceptional service.

This was an awful experience. Your communication is dreadful. Full of empty promises. I'm not happy at all
