Meet the Team

At the heart of our funeral home is a team of dedicated professionals who bring compassion, experience, and integrity to every service we provide.

I'm immensely grateful to Mears for the fantastic service they have provided at this very difficult moment for us. Everyone was respectful, patient, sensitive and considerate throughout the whole time and not once did they make us feel troubled or worried, or feel like we're dealing with a business. Special thanks to Samantha Gibson (Walthamstow Branch) for the smooth running of the funeral service, to Steve for making sure that everything went well on the day, and to Patrizia and Sharon for their guidance and support with the repatriation. I could not have asked for a better service, and I would highly recommend them to anyone.
