Arranging a funeral is an extremely emotional and stressful time; at a time when the next of kin and their family feel less able to cope with such a daunting task. However at our first meeting with Lara Williams, the Funeral Director, at C C James she completed all the necessary forms and outlined the services that they provide, which largely put our minds at ease. On the day of the funeral everything went smoothly thanks to the meticulous planning of the team at C C James Ltd. I and my family are also very grateful to them for the sensitive and emotional support that they provided.

CC James showed the perfect mix of compassion and efficiency. They never kept us waiting for clarification of any of our questions, updated us and talked us through every step, and everything on the day of the funeral was exactly as planned. We felt that the whole experience was in safe hands, and the human touch of wanting to know about Mum before discussing the details of the funeral was a really lovely touch. The funeral itself was exactly what we wanted, not least because of CC James's ability to simplify, clarify, and carry out an excellent service.

Thank you so much for everything that you did for my Auntie Joyce (Eleanor) at such a difficult time. Living a hundred miles away and having to deal with arrangements on the telephone wasn’t easy but special thanks go to Lara who was always very helpful when I spoke to her. Such a lovely lady. Thanks again.
