We would like to express our heartfelt thanks to Saffron, Shaun and the whole team at R Davies for the care, dignity, compassion and kindness you showed to Mum and to us as a family during such a difficult time.
You were all incredibly supportive and helpful, guiding us through every step with such warmth and understanding. We are truly grateful for everything you did to help us give Mum the special and beautiful goodbye she deserved.
Your kindness and care meant more to us than words can say, and we cannot thank you enough for making such a difficult time a little easier for us all.
With our heartfelt thanks and deepest gratitude,
Kim Perry and family
