From the very first phone call we made to Albert Parr & Sons, Sarah was amazing . She looked after and guided us throughout the process with just the right combination of kindness and efficiency. She was a safe pair of hands at a very difficult time. The funeral day itself went exactly as we’d hoped, with the lovely Alan taking the reins. Thank you all.

I would highly recommend Albert Parr. This is sadly the second time I’ve used them in 2 yrs and the service is excellent. Sarah is understanding and compassionate, all our requests were dealt with without any questions. The service was exceptional which makes a big difference when grieving.

Sarah was really helpful in every way and managed to sort an excellent last minute celebrant for me. Alan also excellent on the day of the funeral.
