    We cannot rate Nigel Guilder's highly enough.  Sarah handled the proceedings skilfully, tactfully and very compassionately.  Lucy organised a very nice online tribute, which was lovely to share with family and friends. We felt the organisation was first rate from everyone we dealt with,  we were given all the information and support we needed at such a difficult time. Sarah recommended Hannah as a celebrant. Hannah was a very warm hearted and understanding person who expertly gave a very fitting eulogy.  We felt that the whole day went as we wished it to with the help of all the team at Nigel Guilder.
