I would like to express my sincere thanks to everyone at Biffens for providing an amazing service for both my fathers funeral, and 8 months earlier my mothers funeral. They showed ... so much compassion and care at such a difficult time for us, losing both parents so close together. Nothing was too much trouble and their handling of arrangements to transport my parents back to Bridgwater from Gloucestershire was exemplary, dealing with all the bureaucracy to do this so professionally and taking the stress away from us. Then the organisation and effort that went into making both their services so personal was perfect. A special thanks to John, Sarah and Emily, I couldn't have got through such a sad and difficult time without your care and thoughtfulness. Thank-you so much. more
