  • 4 James Stuckey 12th May 2024

    All ran very well, only comment would be that when they came to the house to take details, he was very stern and serious, felt a little uncomfortable 

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Thank you for taking the time to leave this generally positive feedback on the service provided by our team at West Bridgford. I am however sorry to hear that you found the arranger stern and serious. On each occasion the funeral arranger needs to make an assessment on how best to interact with a family, and I am sorry that on this occasion his behaviour did not make you feel at ease during this difficult time. Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. Chloe Lymn Rose
