From the 1sr time we called and arranged the appointment through to the funeral I can’t praise Baguley Brothers enough for their empathy and support. Lucy took us through all the steps and different options available to us and kept in regular contact. Our Dad and our family and friends where treated with the up most respect on the day and we were given the time we needed to say our goodbyes. We chose Baguleys to look after our Dad and would recommend them to others as nothing was too much trouble and the communicate and support was 1st class.

The whole process of arranging and organising my Mother's funeral service, even moving a prepaid plan from another funeral directors elsewhere in the country, was made very easy with Samantha and then Francis. They both dealt with the process very professionally and with sympathy, kindness and compassion. We will certainly be looking to arrange our own funeral plans with Baguley Bros at some point in the not too distant future!
