    Excellent and compassionate service. The office staff were excellent as well as the drivers/coffin handlers. The florist used was great as was the celebrant, both arranged via the service meaning no looking around to see what was available. Cost was much lower than I expected from news and advert reports by others. Being a co-op card holder wlloI hope never to need them again, but if I do then I will certainly do so.

    They took care of mam very well she was dressed lovely and looked very peaceful they took every care when they brought her home for her last couple of days which helped immensely as I had those days to say my goodbyes and voice my regrets that I didn’t say goodbye . I’m waiting for the final call off the coop to see how we are doing

    I was told I would get a call the day before the cremation, no call was received. I was also told I would receive a call the day after, to put my mind at ease that everything had gone as planned. Again no call was received and no contact has been received since.
