“Dear Alec and Vanessa, just wanted to say once again a very big heartfelt thank you for your caring and supportive
professional services looking after Dad. Everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Really appreciate you being there for us
and guiding you through our difficult and sad time, following the passing of Dad.”
Karen & family
“Dear Alec, I am writing to thank you on behalf of myself and all my family for everything you have done on behalf of our mum,
Anita. Thank you for being so thoughtful and kind and guiding me through every step of the way, in a situation that was very
new to me…Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.”
Julie & family
“Dear Alec, you really did Hamish proud on Friday. He would have absolutely loved the majestic send off. The whole biker
community has been amazingly respectful, supportive and warm-hearted. We can’t thank you enough. You made us all very
proud to be part of such a sensational and fitting send off.”

the help and kindness you showed us during this difficult time and making the day perfect.”
The family of DT
“I had got to know Alec over the last few years when he would call in at the office that I was then working in. I was struck by his
integrity, honesty and professionalism when talking with him about his work as a funeral director and about the background
effort that goes into making each funeral service a fitting and memorable individual experience for the bereaved family and
friends.
“I therefore had absolutely no hesitation in immediately contacting Alec after my 90 year-old mother died in hospital, to begin
the process of arranging her funeral.
“Sorting out a funeral is a really stressful time for anyone but having someone that you can trust and have confidence in
working alongside you doesn’t half make the situation feel a whole lot easier to deal with.”
Steve C
“Dear Alec and Vanessa, I’m sorry that I didn’t get to thank you yesterday, but from the bottom of my heart, I want to thank you
so much. The day could not have been more special, dignified or comforting, and rather than being a sad day I want to forget, it
will be a day that I will treasure in my memory. The service you provided, from the day I walked into your office to the day of
the funeral, exceeded all of my expectations. You made everything so easy and everything was so professionally executed, I
could not have wished for more to give my husband the send off he deserved.
“Rather than feeling at a loss after the funeral and the day after (today), I feel happy and so, so proud that Paul’s funeral could
not have been more fitting. Thank you for bringing him home, thank you for taking him on his last road trip and thank you for
your professionalism.
“You are an amazing team, fantastic at what you do and thanks to you, I will always have happy memories of Paul’s funeral day.
Thank you.”
Michele
“Would like to say "Thank You" to Vanessa and Alec who were both fantastic in making arrangements for my dad tailored to
our requirements. Couldn't have asked for more honest and delicate advice than what we received and I would highly
recommend them to anyone that is unsure on what to do or who to turn to.”
Darren
“Professional and caring service. Alec went out of his way to make us feel as comfortable as possible. Highly recommended.”
Bob
“From the moment I first called Alec, to the moment my Mum was laid to rest, nothing was ever too much to ask for, I would
highly recommend to anyone looking for a last ride as a send off for their loved one. I also just wanted to take this opportunity
to thank each & everyone of you for help with making Mum’s last ride special, considering we were limited due to Covid, your
professionalism alongside (Alec's) biker appearance helped ease a dreaded day into an exceptional last ride.
“David was incredibly patient and reassured me along the journey & even after. I am in no doubt that I left mum in the capable
hands of a wonderful team.”
