Richard and his team have been brilliant from start to finish. The day ran very smoothly.
Julie Cooper 6th Sep 2023
Farriers were amazing! They made the whole traumatic experience easier with their caring, compassionate attitude. Nothing was too much trouble for them, even down to finding the music I wanted. Sarah was amazing and a great support through the whole process
Michele Davison 2nd Sep 2023
This is the third funeral using Farriers. I wouldn't want to use the services of anyone else. Caring, professional, supportive and helpful from beginning to end. I honestly can't praise them enough.
