About Us


We do understand that you may well be choosing a funeral director at a difficult and emotional time. We feel it’s crucial that you are confident in knowing who we are, and what we charge for our services. It’s equally important that we are approachable and can create a friendly yet professional rapport to help you bring about genuinely individual and meaningful funerals.​
