We are sorry that you felt the issue with your daughter and the misunderstanding of the date of the funeral, coupled with the experience while working with our trainee funeral arranger left you feeling that issues were encountered. I am however pleased that you could feel the professionalism of the rest of the team, and that the day of the funeral went well. Thank you.
