Choosing a funeral director isn't one of those things you really ever think about until the time comes. Well our family is most grateful for the guidance and excellent service that M Sillifant & Sons provided. Everything from the first contact with Sarah who careful ran through the options with no pressure or attempts to upsell at all which was most welcome. On the day everything went like clockwork and the team couldn't have been more professional - thank you. I would highly recommend them.

The whole team were so, calm & professional, especially Mark. They made us feel special and that my wife's funeral was the most precious and important thing. Thank you so much for making what could be a stressful situation in the snow, into a beautiful experience.
