Ross and co were so helpful and guided us through the process of arranging Alex’s funeral. Compassionate, caring and a can-do attitude. Answered any questions that was asked and just so nice. Could not commend them enough. Highly recommended. Made a difficult time stress free. Thank you for everything.

Ross Anderson and the whole team at Andrew Anderson & Sons provided excellent service for Craig's funeral. Ross went above and beyond, caring for every aspect of the funeral, including arranging a new pianist the night before! He really looked after us all, checking on our emotional wellbeing and making sure that both the preparation and the day itself were as stress-free as possible.

We cannot thank the team enough for the outstanding care and compassion shown to our family during such a difficult time. From the very beginning, the service felt truly personal, and we were supported every step of the way with friendly, thoughtful advice and guidance. We especially appreciated the courtesy calls keeping us informed of each stage of the arrangements, which provided great reassurance when everything felt overwhelming. Every aspect of the funeral was planned meticulously, with incredible attention to detail — nothing was overlooked. Although our family is not local, this made absolutely no difference to the level of care we received. Ross had everything covered from start to finish, while continually checking in to see whether we needed anything further or if any additional support could be offered. That level of genuine care meant a great deal to us. On the day itself, the team were professional, empathetic, and exceptionally well organised, ensuring everything ran smoothly and with dignity. We are truly grateful for the kindness, respect, and professionalism shown throughout, and would wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone needing compassionate support at such an important time.
