Mr Nathan H.

The service was grand, however, to be fair I think any reputable funeral director would have done the same.

That said, the daily phone calls from Neil to let me updated and to check how the family was and to see if he could help in any way at such an extremely emotional time for our family was fantastic. They meant so much. Thank you to the team and Neil in particular.
