Everyone was brilliant from start to finish. Big thank you to Alex for all her help arranging my dads funeral and a massive thank you to Martin for how he looked after our two small children during the funeral. Can’t thank them enough for making a difficult experience as easy as possible for us.

Alex was amazing from start to finish. She looked after my mum and even painted her nails for her. She made sure she updated me every step of the way. Nothing was too much trouble and she conducted the funeral with grace and respect. Even involved my 6 year old to lead in the coffin with my mum's photo and placing it on top. Would definitely recommend. Thank you so much Alex and Martin for looking after my mum.x
