From the moment we first met Gemma, we knew we had made the right choice. Losing our son Tyler was the hardest thing we have ever faced, but Gemma’s kindness, compassion, and genuine care helped us through every step of the process. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and she treated both our son and our family with such dignity and respect. Her support, understanding, and attention to every detail gave us great comfort during an incredibly difficult time. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better service. We will always be grateful to Gemma and the whole team for giving our son such a beautiful and fitting farewell. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Lee & Collette Elliott ❤️

Gemma and her team organised a very respectful and dignified funeral for my dear wife Maggie. They liaised and coordinated with a funeral director in Wadebridge to receive and return my wife’s coffin to Cornwall where she was finally buried. All went very smoothly.

The whole process of arranging Mums funeral was so easy especially at a time when you need things to be. The whole team were professional and empathetic, even sharing their own stories of grief which was all very comforting. Nothing will bring my wonderful mum back but Gilberts made sure her send off was beautiful. Thank you all!
