    Emma went above and beyond from day one. We had a long wait for the service but the team stayed in touch the whole time and nothing was too much trouble. I’ve never planned a funeral before and planning my mums was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do but they were with me every step of the way and made it as easy as they could. Thank you all so much, your help and support was appreciated and still is.
