I was feeling very overwhelmed when my Dad died but the professional and sensitive service that our Funeral Director provided was exactly what I needed to help me and our family through this really difficult time. Our Funeral Director took us through the process, providing us the options in a sensible way and which enabled us to meet our's and Dad's wishes, and I was grateful for the gentle reminders for the things that I needed to do.
