    Susan is calm and re-assuring. But she also has humour and a lightness of touch to add to a role which is big on organisational skills, empathy and experience. We knew we were in the right hands from the first moment.

  • 5 Jennifer Hewes 7th Oct 2017

    I can't speak too highly of your company your service was excellent in every way,paying attention to every detail and saving me the hassle of going to your office,by meeting me at home ,any time at my convenience. Then there were flowers to sort out ,yet again, the stress was taken off my shoulders, you kindly came to the church with a catalogue of flower arrangements so we could decide in situe,where the flowers would look best and you helped me select the flowers and instructed the florist on my behalf. The shock of bereavement can make small decisions into enormous hurdles, the pain is impossible to describe, I shall never forget your patience and understanding and will certainly recommend your funeral service to all my friends. 
    Yours sincerely 
                    Jennifer Hewes.

  • 5 C Constable 13th Sep 2017

    Susan and her team turned round the requirements for my father's funeral and burial in a very short time-frame. Throughout the process Susan was personally supportive, extremely engaged with what we wanted to celebrate my fathers life and wonderfully caring to both me and my extended family.


    We totally recognise now why she is so highly recommended by others in dealing with such sad circumstances and why she is so well regarded in the surrounding area.
