    From the first contact I found them to be really professional. Special thanks to Stu who dealt with everything and Adam who drove us to the cemetery. Adam was talking to my son after the funeral whilst we were waiting to be transferred to the wake, it was great to have some interaction between him and my son it was much appreciated.

  • 4 Pamela Worwood 11th Nov 2024

    All the arrangements were made including order of service etc; everything ran like clockwork on the day. The only thing that could have been improved was the lead up to the day ... In that one day a deposit was required then another day clothing was required etc; rather than a list of requirements being sent so you only needed 1 more visit
