During one of the hardest periods of my life, Sam was exactly what I needed in a person. Someone to guide me and support me with the funeral arrangements and deal with so many little things. Every time I left, I felt better for having talked to her. Any interaction I had with other staff was great too.
They provided a lovely service for my Mother this year. Thank you very much. God bless 🙏🏻❤️

For my review, this is a copy of the letter of thanks that we sent to the team at Foster's. "On behalf of myself, my husband and the rest of the family I would just like to thank you all so much for your impeccable handling of the funeral yesterday of my late sister-in-law Liz. From start to finish everyone we met and spoke to conducted themselves in just exactly the manner that one so fervently hopes to find when choosing a funeral director. The empathy, kindness, understanding, courtesy, helpfulness, respect and sincerity directed towards ourselves and Liz - every step of the way - was outstanding. With all sincerity I can only say that I hope that all families can be so fortunate as to receive the care that we have received at your hands. Once again you have our utmost and heartfelt gratitude. We wish all your staff all the best in your lives. You truly deserve nothing less."
