Huge thanks to John and the team for the gentle and comprehensive way they guided us through the process of organising a funeral. They showed us great care and compassion in making the arrangements for us where they could and guiding us on the elements we needed to do. We appreciated the regular contact, be it in person, email or phone which ensured we gave my father in law the beautiful funeral he deserved.
