I used Walton and Taylor for my mother's funeral 21 years ago and didn't hesitate to use them again for my father recently. Professional but with a personal touch. Thank you.

    From first contact, we experienced compassion, patience, understanding and first class customer service. Every detail was attended to, every question answered quickly. Nothing was too much trouble. On Dad's funeral day, everything went perfectly smoothly due to the professionalism shown by the team at Walton & Taylor. The gentlemen looked so smart and were quietly respectful, unintrusive, but there when we needed them. As a whole family, we can't thank James and the team enough for their support. Knowing Dad was in safe hands was a comfort to us all.
