I can not fault the care and consideration given by all the members of the team during the sad time of laying my Father to rest. The Ladies in the office Annette and Larissa who dealt with the details, Andrew and the Gentlemen with the hearse and the Celebrant at the service. First class all the way. Also the lovely touches such as the framed picture and the attendance cards in a box that we were given afterwards.Thank you.
