  • 5 Rachel Cusick 14th Feb 2025

    Couldn’t have asked for a nicer send off for our dad. The professionalism from Stephen Mccosh was amazing. From the day we contacted them to the day of the funeral they have made everything so much easier. Nothing was too much for them, no question was to ‘silly’  10/10 service from them. 

  • 5 Julie Young 9th Feb 2025

    Sincere thanks for the professionalism and care shown to our family circle during the entire process. Communication was clear, continual, but unobtrusive. Everything is exactly as we requested. Mum was given a very dignified sending off. Special thanks to Gina.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything you all done for my father in law. We knew the whole time he was in good care when with yourselves. You all helped us and made us feel reassured when we as a family were at our lowest time. Thank you all so much
