We had excellent service from Wakely & son in Yeovil. It was easy to make contact, and they were all easy to speak to. From start to finish, everything was completed in a professional manner, for which I was very grateful. I could not have asked for a better all round service. Elaine

A very professional service from start to finish. Our first point of contact was Matthew who dealt with all arrangements in a very respectful manner. Everything was explained in detail and all our wishes with regard to the funeral service were met, including downloading our choice of music and organising a webcast so that family members living abroad could view proceedings. Laura in the office kept us informed with regard to arrangements. Tracey the Celebrant who conducted the funeral service was excellent as was Frank who dealt with proceedings on the day. I would highly recommend A J Wakeley & Sons.
