Deighans Funeral Parlour gave my mum the most perfect funeral.  From taking mum into their care she was treated with the upmost professionalism.  We were allowed to visit mum each day prior to the actual funeral.  Each step was explained in detail allowing us to absorb what the process was.  From arranging the order of service attaching forget me not seeds with a forget me not pin badge no detail was overlooked.  Ken, Shirley, Rebecca along with their colleagues give 100 % care in such a harrowing time thank you.

As a family we cannot thank the team at Deighans for their care, professionalism and service. From start to finish, Steve, Ryan, Ken and Shirley were at our side. They are an absolute credit to the business and the community they serve. We will be forever grateful to you all.
