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.
