I received absolutely outstanding service. This was the first funeral I have had to organise and the help provided by the Galashiels office was most appreciated. To be honest I didn't really have to organise anything as they took care of everything for me and kept me informed at all times. Special mention to Trish at the Gala office and Stewart Allan who performed the Humanist service for my brother.
