    Where to start 
    Richard from your Herne Bay branch was absolutely amazing, from start to finish nothing was too much trouble for him, he continually kept us up to date and was that helping hand when we were all feeling at our lowest. On the day the attendants were very kind and assisted us with every request. I have used the Co-Op funeral services for our 4 parents and each time the service has been wonderful. I would highly recommend them. Kind regards Mrs Patricia Netts
