Thank you so much to everyone at Peasgood & Skeates Shire Hill, Saffron Walden for their care, empathy and support while recently arranging my wonderful Mum's funeral. We dealt with Jazmine, John and Sarah in the office and Josh looked after us superbly on the day itself. You made a difficult day run very smoothly and we were able to say a lovely final goodbye to my Mum. Thank you again. Ray & Jane Wilson

Peasgood & Skeates have helped us through some difficult times in the last couple of years, the service they provided made a real difference . Kindness, understanding, professionalism and patience demonstrated on each occasion. I could not recommend David and his team more highly. So nice to see them to give back to the community by sponsoring local events too.
