Jon Hassler-Hurst 23rd Jan 2018

Andrew and his team were so supportive and professional in their approach. Everything was clearly explained and the day went well despite poor weather to start with. Nothing was too much and we all worked well to achieve as the family wanted. Thank you.

Andrew and his staff were so caring and sympathetic at this most difficult time. A very professional service provided throughout. Available at all times for advice on any matter. Can't thank him enough for the way everything was dealt with in an appropriate and proper way. With many thanks from the family of Jane (Jean) Bryson
5 Linde Gulliford 1st Dec 2017

We could not have wished for a more efficient, yet gentle and compassionate team arranging mother's funeral. Everything was done for us and where necessary, were guided to people who could help. The day went incredibly smoothly and we were unobtrusively ushered through the proceedings at both the Crematorium and Church.

I would not hesitate to recommend Andrew Bingham: one could not wish for a more dedicated and professional team to help one through what is a very sad and traumatic time. Thank you all for making the day easier than it might have been x
