The service from Chris & the team at Graham Ward's was of the highest quality from start to finish. We felt reassured & safe in their care. There really are not enough words in the world to convey how we felt for their help during this sad time. Their care the shower for my father was comforting & knowing he was in great hands & being cared for by such a compassionate team was heartwarming. Thank you to all at Graham Wards.

    Without a doubt the service my father received from Graham Ward was outstanding.
    Right from our first contact, communication was excellent and Chris talked us through what we needed to do and our options.
    The day of the funeral was run to perfection and my dad had a very dignified send off.
    I would highly recommend Graham Ward for your dignified funeral.
