Gavin and his colleagues were excellent, everything was explained clearly and all went according to plan. We were shown compassion and were given great support. The family are grateful to everyone involved. Many thanks

I could not commend Ian Brown Funeral Directors enough. From start to finish - totally professional. They dealt with my dads funeral arrangements, for my mum, when I was on business in Riga 17 years ago. On that basis, mum specified the same. Fraser, Anne and Pauline, drivers (Davie , sorry forgot other) dealt with mums funeral arrangements with dignity. From the start Fraser made my sis and I comfortable and took away any stress. From that point on we were taken through the whole process in a sensitive and professional way. I could not praise these guys enough. If you are looking for a professional, trust worthy set people to deal with matters at a sensitive time, look no further. Thanks again guys. Xx

June at Ian Brown Funeral Directors was very helpful in ensuring that all my Great Aunts funeral wishes were carried out. She was very compassionate and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble for her to arrange. On the day of the funeral she was very kind to us, making sure that we were ok and happy with everything. She's a credit to Ian Brown Funeral Directors.

We can’t praise Ian Brown Funeral Directors highly enough. We used their services on the death of a close family friend, and would have to say that we were impressed all round with every aspect of their work. They took time at every step, to make sure that our needs were fully met.We dealt mainly with Shannon, who guided us so professionally in all arrangements. Joe, too, was so helpful and supportive, every time we spoke to him. All in all, we would have no hesitation in recommending Ian Brown of Carstairs. Their help and support at a very difficult time was greatly appreciated. Thank you.
