People say:

The memorial service for my grandmother was excellent. It reflected her personality, interests and the things she loved. It felt personal, was original and classy. She would have absolutely loved it and that's what really mattered. I felt as though we had honoured her in a really special and warm way. My family and I will remember it for a really long time.
