Excellent personal service from JJ Burgess, I would especsially like to thank Becky for her kind, considerate and sympathetic conduct, this was really helpful at such a difficult time. We have used JJ Burgess since 1966 and would not consider using any other funeral director, it feels like they are part of the family.
