“We decided on a service which reflected on Dad's time serving in the Royal Navy during WW2 on minesweepers, and his coffin was draped with the Union flag accompanied by his medals — which was very moving to see. Lisa kept us well informed with emails and phone calls but was never intrusive, and just gave us that extra feeling that everything was under control. The service from start to finish was faultless.” — Vince I.

“I'd especially like to mention Nikki. I honestly couldn't have been in better hands. She was caring, patient and clear in her communication, and I always felt listened to and supported. That meant a lot. Lisa also had a calm, reassuring presence and handled everything with dignity and care.” — Monika T.
