I couldn’t be more pleased with the way A. V. Band handled my Mum’s funeral. From the beginning to the end of the funeral arrangements they were sympathetic, extremely helpful, always available to talk to when needed and all the arrangements came together perfectly on the day. Special thanks to Liz and Chantelle for everything. The order of service was beautiful and Clare, the celebrant, put together a wonderful service. My Mum would have been so very proud of everything. Thank you all so much!
