As this was my first experience of trying to arrange a funeral i was full of trepidation at the thought of making mistakes and letting my late husband down. Mr Barry Whalen walked me through every stage of the process with great consideration and patience. He was genuinely thoughtful and caring allowing me to phone him at any time day or night to share my concerns with him and to listen to me. I have never met a kinder more professional man who treated both my late husband and myself with such respect and dignity and i would certainly recommend him most highly to anyone looking for a sympathetic caring professional funeral director. Thank you for your kindness and all the time you gave unto myself at this most difficult of times.
