Really lovely service arranged for our family by Natalie. Everything was taken care of and done with a really caring and sensitive touch. Despite being something that you never want to have to deal with, Natalie made everything really easy and provided a really good send off that we are really thankful for. Thank you for everything you have done for us.

    I have never had to organise a funeral before and the first time I do it was for my beloved mum.  I am so very grateful for the help, support and care I received by John and from his colleagues too.  John kindly and respectfully helped me to plan my mums funeral, kept in touch and went out of his way to contact me every couple of days. His help and guidance was second to none and his friendly and honest approach to all areas of my mums funeral was outstanding. Thank you so much for making an incredibly upsetting and hard time in my life so much easier.
