David was really helpful throughout and nothing was too much trouble. He made you feel relaxed and at ease during a very difficult time and helped make the arrangements easier by taking you through things one step at a time. A big thank you once again.

We are very grateful to the whole team at George Steele for helping us organise a lovely tribute to my mum. The service and day as a whole passed as well as we could have hoped for. David, who helped organise the funeral, was professional, friendly and clearly explained the different options and prices to us. Every attempt was made to cater for for our requirements. Communication was good without being overbearing. The day itself ran very smoothly. All the staff were polite and respectful and although they must do hundreds of such events, we felt valued and cared for. We would have no hesitation in recommending George Steele and Son for their services.
