We were so impressed with how Holmes and Family handled Mams funeral a couple of years back we used them again for Dads. Everyone is professional yet easy to talk to during such a difficult time for families, and nothing was too much for them, they really did put the family first. I couldn’t recommend the more highly.

So kind and caring throughout the whole very sad experience, we could not have asked for anymore. Every single member of Michelle’s team were fantastic especially Lee and Lisa who came out to take care of my wife when she passed. Thank you for everything.
