Many thanks to G H Dovener &Son for all their care and support. Particular thanks to Denise and Helen for their compassion and kindness at this sad time for Mum and I. They really helped us make decisions on the arrangements, Including the flowers, order of service and coffin choice (Yes we needed help with that too!). Really felt nothing was too much trouble.Found the guys who picked our family up in the limousine very professional, respectful and attentive.So many thanks to you all!Doreen and Lynne Green
