Barnard & Horlock Funeral Directors
Fore Street, Edmonton.
We had occasion to use the services of the above when our lovely Mum & Mum-in-law, Sheila, passed away in October. From the very first contact with Paul in their offices, we were looked after and made feel the most important ‘customers’ they’d ever had. Cups of tea, coffee & biscuits appeared on the table and we were instantly put at ease. Paul went through all the details patiently taking us through the various choices and we had. No question was left unanswered and we were very happy that Mum’s funeral was going to be just the way we (and she) would have wanted.
A very special word about the flowers. All we can say is WOW!! They far exceeded our expectations. We chose the 5’ double ended mixed floral arrangement. It’s one thing looking at a brochure but when we saw the actual flowers on the coffin, it blew our minds. Massive congratulations to the florist.
A special Thank You to Caroline & the drivers who collected us on the day, brought us to the Church, the cemetery & back to our reception venue. We would have no hesitation recommending Barnard & Horlock for your loved one’s funeral.
