Aidan Gaunt Funerals organised my husband's direct cremation. The matter was handled personally by Aidan who explained and arranged everything and kept me informed at every stage. I would recommend due to the professionalism, efficiency, kindness and empathy demonstrated. I knew I had made the right decision and that my hubby was in safe hands.

We were first invited down to the funeral home to discuss how we would like the funeral to run e.g. was there a theme we wanted, music choices etc. and all the other bits that I hadn’t even began to think about such as order of service booklets! Aidan was patient and provided us with a wide choice of options to mull over which allowed me to tailor the service to how I think my mum would have liked.
