"I lost my mum on 15th April 2025. Was utterly distraught. As an only child, I did not know where to even begin. I changed my mind half-way through from a hearse to a horse-drawn carriage — Rosie checked the same day if that change could be made. Everything I asked for which represented mum's personality was provided. An orange theme. Mum's favourite colour. Even the horses bore orange. The staff even knocked on mum's door to let her know I was there before entering. Amazing service and fantastic aftercare."
— Davina Beverley Kenning (about Jamie & Rosie)
