Wow I am shocked that this company deal with people grieving. They appear to have no time for people going through a difficult time. Has taken so long to get hold of them only to be told that we was taking up his time on the phone and that he doesnt get payed for phone calls. I'll be coming to see you soon . Hopefully you have more compassion in person than over the phone.
