  • 4 Alan Tarr 26th Jul 2023

    David Williams and his team were excellent.

    Deborah the Celebrant was top drawer / excellent.

    The disappointing thing was my late step Dad Gordon Lane was not in good condition when we viewed his body as was delayed at hospital by 8 days and then at Summers Funeral Home by 9 days due to no coffin.

  • 5 Ron Hill 18th Jul 2023

    We dealt with Peter Lake who we want to single out as being extremely helpful. He made dealing with a stressful, horrible situation a lot easier than it could have been. He was very available to us and never made us feel like anything was too much trouble but was also honest and didn’t promise things that couldn’t be delivered. Compared to people we had dealt with from other business - Peter was a breathe of fresh air and was very empathetic and efficient. He was also very personal with how he dealt with the deceased and us as a family. We can’t say enough nice things about him.
