I am proud to have been in the funeral profession for the last eighteen
years. I am also proud and honoured to have helped so many people with
funeral arrangements (approximately 6000), who in return have always been
appreciative for my assistance.
For those who do not know me I have included this page as testament of my
years of local funeral service, from the people who really matter - the
people I have helped:-

McNaughton, River 2009) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "I have had a very positive reaction to the funeral you helped organize. Everyone I spoke to said how refreshing it was - not at all sombre and very appropriate for Peter. Quite a few of our friends said they would like to go that way too." (F. Campbell, St Margaret's-at-cliffe, 2009) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "I have, unfortunately, had the need to appreciate the services offered by Paul twice in the last few months. Firstly, at the funeral of a very dear friend. Secondly, on the sudden and unexpected death of my dear partner Alan. Obviously the whole experience of loosing a much loved partner is awful beyond description, but Paul helped make the processes bearable. Every request was met with the same calm, reassuring manner. He remembered every small detail, and was kind beyond the needs of his profession. My thanks to him." (C. Steel, Egerton, Kent, 2009) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "I found Paul's number and when I rang him, he had such a gentle voice, he put me at ease straight away and I knew then that I could trust his judgement for arranging my mum's funeral. Paul was very professional, understanding and I felt that his services were personal to me and my family at this very sad time. Paul can't do enough for you, whatever your wishes, he will accommodate them as best he can. I would highly recommend Sullivan & Son to take care of your loved ones funeral, you will not receive a better personal service. Thank you Paul for everything". (B. Miller, Deal, 2009) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Paul organised and carried out a thorough and efficient funeral. He was always caring and attentive. The flowers he provided from a local florist, were lovely and the butterfly was a beautiful touch. Paul even volunteerd to place some of the flowers, from my mum's cremation service, on the grave of my father and sent two photos showing them. We changed the venue for the cremation and this was no problem. I obtained 3 quotes and Paul's was easily the best value. I recommend Paul and would assure you that you will not find a better service". (R. Hurst, Maidstone, 2009) MORE TESTIMONIALS AND PICTURES AVAILABLE AT: www.thebestof.co.uk/dover AND ALSO:- www.maps.google.com |
