Testimonials
Mr A – Great Totham
Thank you for the way that A.G. Smith conducted the funeral of my wife. From the initial meeting that I had with Jack, through to the ceremony with Julian it was perfect. You supplied exactly what my wife wanted and all who attended agreed that it was superbly carried out. At our first meeting you explained all the options and supplied the funeral we wanted at a very reasonable cost, you saved me a lot of stress and worry.
