- Rating 5.09 July 2019The staff at D&W went out of their way to provide a friendly and approachable service for my fathers funeral. It was my first time organising something like this and Natalie put my mind at rest by organising all the details whilst involving us in every decision throughout the process. On the day Gerald and his staff made sure he was there to support the family whilst not being intrusive at this sensitive time. The Celebrant that was provided gave an uplifting and full description of my father and his life.
