Thornhill Funeral Services-Alex
We used Thornhill Funeral Services when my husband passed away. I cannot recommend Alex enough and know my family feel the same. He is so patient, calm and has everything thought of. His experience is very evident and he guided us so well to enable us to have the funeral we wanted.

Kind, professional and knowledgeable.
Alex is the kindest, most professional and knowledgeable funeral director we could have hoped for. He listened to all of our wishes, allayed all of our worries and put on a fabulous spectacle on the day of Dad's funeral - he would have loved it. We have no hesitation in recommending him to others.

Alexander Thornhill was extremely professional, courteous and knowledgeable. He was also friendly and approachable and was able to answer all the questions we had about the arrangements we had to make. He guided us with empathy and sympathy and made suggestions that helped us make the right decisions.
We would not hesitate to recommend Alexander to other bereaved families.
