    From the first difficult meeting to discuss arrangements for my father, Stu Mason was both calm and professional and put us at ease, we knew our father's final journey was going to be in good hands.
    Throughout the following weeks the support extended to us was excellent, nothing was too much trouble. The funeral day went without any hiccups, all timed to perfection, we were looked after like royalty.
    We cannot thank them enough for their help and support and we are extremely grateful for making a heart-breaking day into a special memory.
