  • 5 Ian Cochrane 28th Jul 2024

    We have used Terry Allen since their firm was founded in 1995, all of our family funerals have been handled by them and the personal touch of a family firm cannot be matched by large chains.
    We run a floristry business and deal with all the local funeral directors, so we see a bigger picture than most clients, the other local firms provide a professional service but lack the warmth and also the flexibility of dealing with people who are personally involved in their company.
