The Role of Your Funeral Director
We will advise you each step of the way, discussing with you all the options and ensuring you are clear as to the costs involved. We are there to support you and guide you on what you need to do and how to go about it.
We will take care of the deceased, discuss the funeral arrangements and options available to you, deal with all the logistics and paperwork involved, and act as the ‘master of ceremonies’ on the day of the funeral.
When bringing your loved one into my care, I would like to point out that I do not use 'Box Vans' like other companies. I prefer to use a Ford Galaxy vehicle that carries an ambulance style stretcher and has darkened privacy glass to afford your loved one every dignity and privacy. Regardless of how busy i may be, as a business I will ONLY ever convey one person at a time to my premises.
Also, please be assured that your loved one will ALWAYS be brought directly to my premises here at 17, Sun Street, Waltham Abbey and will remain in my care here until the day of the funeral and each and every loved one who comes into my care is looked after as if they were my own.
