Services
Our company was founded in 1881 by Alfred Crawford Smith, a hatbox maker of Southwark, who, after losing one of his children, decided that he could better the services of other local undertakers.
He was as good as his word, for by the time of his death in 1933 at the age of seventy five, his company was certainly the most renowned funeral directors in South London and was especially noted for its Dutch bred, Friesian horses, which were completely black.

I must apologise for how late this review is, it inevitably had to be done.
While dealing with the realisation of my brothers death, both Maggie and Joan (hope that's spelt right) was nothing but professional, organised and compassionate throughout the whole process. Me and my mum were well looked after, even though Joan was going through an extremely difficult time she remained dedicated to finish her job. I sincerely hope both Maggie and Joan are alright and I want to express my very late but profound gratitude to these two great ladies. Based on their level of service I highly recommend Alfred
