After the pain of losing my father to sudden death, Mark and all the staff at Robson&Stephens took care of me and my family from day one, i wanted to remember my dad`s service in the Navy and serving in the Falklands war, this was respected and honored by Mark and he went the extra mile to make this service about my father and the memories myself and my family have. An absolute honour to have met his team in this time i needed guidance and support. Thankyou for your patience and building a real friendship with my family. Liz x

Mark and Melissa were great to deal with. Very understanding, caring and supportive at a time of great sadness and confusion. Mum's funeral was perfect in every detail and just what we wanted. Knowing that matters were in safe hands eased the stress we felt at a time of great change. We would recommend them 100%. Michael Butcher and family
