I was so lucky to have Nikki Stevens as my go to person with regards to my mum's funeral. Nikki was so supportive and helpful in making all the arrangements with me, Nikki even recognised the relationship between my mum and her dogs to offer me that the dogs could attend the funeral and she would look after them for me. I truly believe that Nikki went above and beyond what was expected from her, she is an asset to your company and I would highly recommend your services.

They have been kind, compassionate and thoughtful in making suggestions, explaining every step of the procedure clearly and communicating throughout. I am very grateful to them.
