Over 100 years of experience means that we are able to offer professional funeral services that complement the wishes of the deceased and the requirements of those arranging the service.

Testimonials
On behalf of Edward’s family I wish to thank you for the care and attention you gave us.
Everything was carried out perfectly and with great dignity, and we were even touched by the care given to our young pall bearers. You looked after us very well!
Thank you so much for all the support you gave the family – much appreciated. A lovely funeral – well done!
I just wanted to pass on my sincere thanks to you and your team for the kind and compassionate service you gave to me and Mandi’s family.
Dear Shaun
I’m sure you will never forget Henry’s day. I’m sorry you never met him in life. Everyone liked Henry and I know he’d have thought you were sound.
Feel free to talk about Henry’s funeral and show photos of his coffin to other families. We are proud of what we created for Henry
