Edd Frost and Daughters were just the best at organising the funeral plan required during our hard times. Barbara was just perfect in all she done. Nothing was too much trouble. Everyone at Edd Frost was so professional. We as a Lake family would like to say a massive thank you. Highly recommend for all your needs.

My mother had been poorly for 4 years, with terrible dementia and when she passed away suddenly in early January 2021 we were all shocked and upset but with a sense of relief, as we knew it was going to happen, we just didnt know when. Edd Frost and all of his team were so kind, helpful and caring from the first phone call and throughout. We had never experienced organising a funeral before and didnt know what to do. However this is where Edd was brilliant as he talked through everything with us, was available on the phone or email and always knew the answer to our questions. Thank you so

Edd Frost and his team supported our family with the loss of my grandmother which happened during lockdown. He guided us through the funeral process at a very difficult and sad time but we felt in safe hands from day one. My nieces had not experienced a funeral before and were anxious about it, so Ed kindly visited them to encourage and assure and even got them involved in the service. The planning and delivery of the service was superb, and the advice and care provided was both compassionate and comprehensive, we would highly recommend his company.
