Why choose an independent Funeral Director?
Part of the communityA. & A. Walters has a long and proud history of personal service to the local community. As a fifth generation family business it is a way of life for our family and has been since 1850. Our values are your values and we are deeply committed to upholding the stringent professional standards as set out by the National Association of Allied and Independent Funeral Directors (SAIF).
Devoted to families not profits
Large corporations answer to shareholders, we answer to you. In our locally owned firm there is no pressure from head office to increase profits. We know that our business will do well when we serve you well.
Small business, high standards
Although our business is small by some standards, it does not limit us in the services we are able to offer you. With our significant experience in all aspects of the profession we are able to assist your family in dealing with any eventuality, regardless of wherever the death may have occurred. Rest assured, for us nothing is too much trouble.
When your family suffers the loss of a loved one, it can be comforting to know your funeral director. We make every effort to be involved in our local community and to create the kind of personal relationships which lead to individual, sensitive service. It is little wonder that in some areas larger national chains shy away from advertising under their corporate name but instead prefer to keep the pretence of a small independently owned firm.
It's nice to know who you are talking to
If you are like most people, you find it easier to deal with someone you know. How many large businesses can you think of where you have a direct line to the Managing Director? We believe that this increases the flexibility and personal service that we are able to offer you and your loved one.
