Nov 2024 Client Review "From the moment we walked in, we were made to feel comfortable and welcome"

"From the moment we walked into the Marston office and met with Dorian we were made to feel comfortable and welcome. Clare, our Funeral Director helped and advised us with all the finer details of the funeral planning. Clare was extremely organised and would email and/or call me to update me so I knew that I didn't have to worry about anything as it was all under control. I can't thank Clare enough for the care and compassion she gave to my aunt's funeral. I would highly recommend Sandra Homewood Funerals. I'm already spreading the word!"

We are conscious that Christmas can be a particularly difficult time for those who are grieving, so we would like to make you aware that St Andrew's Church will be holding a 'Christmas in the Darkness' service on Thursday 5th December at 7:30pm.

This reflective service is designed particularly for those who may find Christmas a time of mixed emotions and encompasses an understanding of that, whilst gently drawing on hope for the future.
