  • 5 John Arms 3rd Aug 2022

    Shayne and his team provided such a loving and personal service. It was a great mix of respect and lightness that made a difficult job much easier.

    Shayne had previously supported us with my dad's funeral in 2019. I remember making appointments with two funeral directors but, once we had met Shayne, we immediately cancelled the other appointment as we knew we were in the right place. Our experiences from that point continued to reassure us that we made the right decision.

    Shayne and his family supporting us and our family. Perfect - thank you.

    SHAYNE STORK replied
    Dear John, thank you very much for taking the time to leave such a lovely review of our services. We always strive to give 100% to every family we have the privilege of looking after. Thank you for entrusting us as your funeral director. Our best wishes to you and your family, Regards Shayne.
