Thank you to everyone at A Seaward & Sons especially Helen, for your kindness support and guidance through a very difficult time. You made this time so much more bearable and alot less stressful with all your help with the funeral arrangements. We cant thank you enough of your care and understanding which meant alot to our family.

Excellent service from the initial friendly contact until the completion of the cremation ceremony. Including help with the order of service, liaison with the priest, and the service itself a fitting way to say goodbye to my sister.
