I work with Moores in a professional capacity, so I knew they would be the first people I would call when my lovely mum passed away. From the moment I picked up the phone at 3am, my family and I were met with compassion, kindness and genuine care. Lee and Carlos came to collect Mum, and we immediately knew she was in safe hands. Angela looked after Mum throughout her stay and went above and beyond for our family, even coming in on a Sunday so we could all spend time with Mum together. She guided us through every step of the planning process, contacted the vicar and crematorium, organised the order of service and slideshow, and made everything so much easier. All we had to do was share our wishes, and Angela took care of the rest. When the day of the funeral arrived, Rowan took charge and ensured everything ran seamlessly. The service was everything we had hoped for and more. It was a beautiful celebration of Mum's life, and she would have loved it. On behalf of myself and my family, thank you to Angela, Rowan, Lee, Carlos and the entire team for everything you have done for us. Saying goodbye is never easy, but you helped us give our mum and wife the most beautiful send-off we could have imagined. We will always be grateful for your kindness, professionalism and unwavering support
