They provided a excellent service and I couldn't have asked for more, so caring and reassuring. Elaine and Gill going above and beyond to make sure the family were kept up to date and comfortable with the whole process. Would highly recommend to anyone needing this service.

    I can’t thank Elaine, Craig & all of the people involved on the day of the funeral for the support, kindness & empathy they showed me & my family. Elaine was so kind & thoughtful from the first interaction I had with her & continued after the funeral.
