Very lovely and efficient people 

Ann Hales 4th Oct 2022

There are not enough words to thank Susan and her wonderful team for everything they did for us. From start to finish we were made to feel included in everything and given as much time as we needed. Our most cherished family member was in the best possible hands and we are only sad that he ever had to leave them. They cannot be recommended highly enough for their professionalism, support and genuine care.

Mrs S Cable 21st Sep 2022

Mandy and colleagues were very empathic and professional guiding our family through the funeral process at this sad time.

    The services were caring and compassionate and made a difficult time much easier. I wouldnt hesitate in recommending Susan's services to anyone.

  • 5 Tessa Prior-Thompson 2nd Jul 2022

    Susan and her colleagues were absolutely wonderful. The organisation of a funeral comes at a bad time, when all you want to do is grieve, but they made it easy by suggesting choices, making sure everything happened as it should, chasing me up nicely when I forgot things. It all made an exceptional farewell for my darling sister.

    Susan Whymark replied
    Tessa, it was my privilege to help you with Sarah's arrangements. What an amazing lady. Always here. Susan

    Wonderful, caring and warm. At a time when my world had fallen apart they helped take some of the stress out of a very difficult time. Making arrangements without a fuss always very respectful, patient and understanding. The compassion and care has also continued after the funeral which means so much to me. Thank you.
