They offered a very caring and extremely professional service which is supported at the pace you require. Always available when we required it for a high level of support and advice when requested. They helped plan my wife’s funeral which was a burial and took care of her requests to the letter and ensured there was no problems for ourselves. Their after care service is just as professional and are to be highly recommended Thank you to all at Gordon &Watson from the Brown family

My father passed away on 23 July 2019 and my two sisters and I really had no idea how to proceed with funeral arrangements etc. We called Gordon and Watson and they saw us that very day. Shane helped us and went through all that needed to be done slowly and clearly. He advised of things we would need to take care of ourselves and made suggestions without pushing us one way or another. The day itself went perfectly with Shane again leading the way. We would not hesitate to recommend Gordon and Watson.
