  • 5 David Savage 12th Jan 2026

    Very good communication and organisation, especially from Katie who arranged everything. The only issue was at the crematorium as there was another service talking place when we arrived, as I had double booked a double timeslot for my wife's service to ensure that wouldn't happen and the previous one appeared to overrun.

    Katie Rankin replied
    Thank you for your kind words David, and thank you for entrusting us to care for your beloved Karen. Best wishes Katie
