The thoughts of having to organise my late husband's funeral was daunting, I felt that I did not have the strength or ability to begin, what I thought to be a long emotional haul. All my fears were proved to be unfounded after my daughter contacted J & G Fielder. Jon Kirkman, took hold of the reins, allowing my daughter and I the space to deal with our loss. Jon, made the decision making, so easy, as he guided us through the format to be followed. He came to my home, talked to us, expertly and with empathy for the situation we were in. The way in which he talked to us, did not make me feel that I was having to make decisions. He is an expert in his craft of being a Funeral Director. The funeral itself was so much more relaxed thanks to Jon's influence and presence. Every aspect and stage of the funeral was conducted in a professional, efficient, respectful manner with utmost care and consideration shown to my daughter and I. I will be forever grateful to Jon and his team, who worked hard to make sure that all and everything that they did was for the benefit of all concerned. Thank you, to the team at J.G. Fielder, thank you especially, to Jon Kirkman, a very special caring man.
