If I could I would give 6 stars. The service given by Angela was above and beyond what was expected. She smoothed out the whole process and got things done. It destressed the whole process and gave a friendly contact to use.
This continued with Rebecca who ensured the funeral went seamlessly as planned.
These two ladies are exceptional and when put together an unbeatable team.
My heart felt thanks for the help given.

From the moment we contacted Angela at Staplefords in Portchester the service and care we received was second to none from beginning to end. We could not fault any aspect at all and should the need arise again in the future we will not hesitate to return to Staplefords.

From start to finish the wonderful team at A G Stapleford & Sons provided an amazing experience in what is a difficult and challenging time for my family. They worked with compassion and care and always went above and beyond in their effort to take the pressure off and manage everything for you. Special mention must go to Katie at the Porchester office. She made my life so much easier and I would recommend her and the company to be trusted with any arrangements and will certainly be my first call next time.
