I cannot recommend Hadrian and his team enough, they are quite simply marvelous. They were incredibly professional, but far, far more importantly they were very human too, it was easy to talk to them and they guided us throughout the whole thing. They anticipated our needs and questions. Thank you doesn't come close to how we feel, we are so very grateful.

I have to say that Hadrian and his team are absolutely fantastic. Hadrian genuinely cares for every family he meets. Nothing is ever too much and the pride he puts in to his work is phenomenal. No one ever sees what happens "backstage" of a funeral directors but i am astonished with the time, committment, effort, and compassion he puts in to every funeral. You can call at any time and you will be reassured that you will be given the red carpet treatment without any hesitation. Horsforth is extremely lucky to have Hadrian as a funeral Director. Geldarts have a fantastic reputation and we know why
