★★★★★ All the staff were excellent respectful and professional but especially the young lady Lauryn was extremely helpful
★★★★★ My mum passed away recently she had organised her funeral and cremation through Sandy Close funeral services Shankill road. We couldn't have asked for better, they were very sympathetic and professional from the start. All the staff were so courteous and really friendly and helpful. They did everything they could for us when the minister advised he would be unable to attend. They tried hard to get another then we settled for a humanist after they advised us about this. We were so glad we did.
