    Excellent service from start to finish, I felt I was in very safe, competent hands - which was vital during this time. Great advice given, arrangements made promptly, all my wishes carried out with care and sympathy - for the church service, the Crematorium and everything in between. I wholeheartedly recommend James Summers Funeralcare.

    From start to finish, Julia listened and was more than supportive in a  horrible situation. Nothing was too much and I would have struggled a lot more over the last few weeks if I had to worry about the funeral but she made it bearable. Thank you all!!
