  • 5 Angela Whitehouse 1st Aug 2024

    From the moment we stepped into the office of Farmer's we knew we were in good hands. Chris dealt with our requests with compassion, friendliness, sensitivity and respect. The gentlemen who accompanied our loved one in the hearse to Gornal Wood were equally professional and respectful and took time afterwards to ensure we were feeling okay before they left us to greet other mourners. We can't fault any aspect of Farmer's funeral services, vital at such an emotional time. Thank you, you have helped us so much in coming to terms with our loss. God bless you all.
