Thank you for your professionalism, kindness and attention to detail during the emotional roller coaster of a time arranging a funeral for Bryan.

The Jones FamilyDear Emma,
Not something I ever wanted to do, but if there is such a thing as a perfect funeral, I believe that was it.
Thank you so much for your care, support and attention to detail. All went without a hitch and was very 'rock and roll' - I think Ralph would have like it, and all those lovely things people said.
I doubt if it is something one would 'recommend', but if an opportunity presents itself, I will certainly say how you and Helen made this thing happen in perfect harmony.
Thank you hardly seems a worthy word but it's all I have.
Very best regards,
Deb

Many thanks,

The family and I would like to thank you for the simply marvelous way that you handled our somewhat 'unconventional farewell' for my beloved husband Paul.
Not just superbly professional but your warmth, patience and understanding made a difficult time so much easier.
I know after listening to the anecdotes from friends that we may not have received such support had we used other Funeral Directors.
Many of our guests were amazed at how beautiful such a simple ceremony could be.
We cannot recommend you highly enough.
Thank you and kind regards.

We cannot thank you all enough for the kindness and care that you gave to my much loved Daughter and my lovely Sister Wend.
We both felt that she was in safe hands and we felt sure that Wend would have felt the same.
Nothing seemed too much trouble for you Emma, whatever time of day that we needed you, giving us advise and getting everything right for the day of the funeral. Arranging a lovely service, putting together the lovely photos and then even coming out to see us in the evening after the funeral and still keeping in touch with us now.
Thanks for making Wend's last journey perfect.
