    Excellent and professional service. Every detail and request fulfilled. All involved were courteous, understanding, patient and pleasant whilst still remaining professional. The funeral director ensured all went exactly as planned. Funeral route and requirements, horse drawn carriage, music and timings were precise with nothing left to chance. Would certainly recommend without hesitation. Excellent.
