Ann Whitfield 15th Aug 2022

The staff were fantastic throughout and made our saddest time bearable.  Sandra and Catherine were who we dealt with in the office but on the funeral day the whole team were very professional and so lovely.

    The professional way in which Sandra and her team conduct a funeral is exemplary, not only do they go out of their way to make the process run smoothly and tailor the needs of you and your loved ones they are caring and understanding from the beginning to the end of the funeral. Sandra and her team should be amazingly proud of their service as I know my family and I felt completely at ease throughout both my mum and now my dads funeral they helped us give them both the send of they deserved 
    Thank you 
    Deborah and family
