Client Testimonials
I am honoured to have supported many families over the years. Here are a few words from those I have helped:
I contacted Stephen based entirely on his positive reviews and I’m so glad I did. Stephen has been superb in every aspect of arranging my mother’s funeral. He responded immediately and in depth to a series of questions that I had asked on an online contact form. I then spoke with Stephen and was impressed by his caring and professional manner. He came to collect my mother in the middle of the night, he sorted all the paperwork side of things and he kept me up to date with all stages of the proceedings. When he visited us at home, I knew he was the right person, a true gentleman running a small local business keen to have everything just as we would choose. I would have no hesitation in recommending Stephen for anyone looking for a personal and genuine service. Thankyou.
Great service provided at the most difficult time in your life, Stephen is very attentive and understanding, not the least pushy and always makes time to listen to your wishes, nothing is too much trouble, a credit to his profession
Can’t praise Stephen enough for his support on two occasions, nothing is too much trouble and he is there throughout the difficult time.
Compassionate and considerate there is nothing more we could ask for, a true professional and overall gent.
Highly recommended for his services.
