Amazing funeral directors. Me and my brother lost my mum and didn't know what to do about a funeral so went in and spoke to Marc. Such a professional and caring person. Was so respectful throughout the 1st meeting. Recommended an amazing celebrant (Gillian). On the second finalisation meeting we spoke to Brett and also so courteous and respectful.

Fortunately we were referred to Brett from H L Hawes by the most beautiful, kind and thoughtful lady who, unbeknown to us (at the time) happened to be the wife of Brett. I spoke with Brett on the phone and I knew straight away that that was the company I was going to use for my brothers cremation.
