I really cannot thank Phil and Sheila enough for the care, compassion and yes, humour, they shared with my family at such a dreadful time. Nothing was too much trouble and options we didn't even dream of were offered by Phil that made my husband's funeral so relevant to him and such a comfort to all of us. I cannot recommend them highly enough, and I do so knowing just how important this is, because you really do need to be able to depend on your chosen funeral director.

From my very first contact, both Martin and Sheila were professional, sympathetic, and compassionate, they kept in regular touch, offering help, advice, support, and guidance.

At all times, I was treated with the utmost respect and nothing was ever too much trouble.

Everything was clearly explained and any question I had, fully answered. I always felt totally confident and relaxed with them from start to finish, they managed to provide everything as I would have wished, and the whole process ran like clockwork.

I cannot speak highly enough of them - I have no hesitation, in recommending them.
