I would like to say that, all the people who where involved with my mum's funeral were of the highest integrity and professionalism. Thank you so much.

My Father passed away in 1987 and Walton and Taylor were the funeral directors who were charged with his arrangements. So impressed with the care and dignity shown for my Dad, my Mother stipulated to us that she wanted Walton and Taylor's to care for her when her time came. Sadly that time came this year. From start to finish they were fantastic and showed the same care and dignity as they had 31 years earlier. We were never pressured into anything we didn't feel comfortable with and allowed to instruct them without any "sales chat" Thank you James and Sue for all the care and guidance you showed us when arranging my Mothers funeral. Not a criticism but maybe tell family when the deposit is due. I am aware that it is stated on the back of the invoice, but I failed to read it at the time and I was mortified when you had to remind me. God bless and hope to see you when my time comes
