Stephen is also Chairman for the British Institute of Funeral Directors (Northern Ireland) again the only local funeral director to be part of this Institute. Acceptance into the BIFD is based upon Professional qualifications and is reserved exclusively for those who meet and maintain the highest standards of training and professionalism.

The BIFD also has recently presented Stephen with a licence to practice as a professionally qualified funeral Director, again the only local Funeral Director to hold this Licence.

He himself is proud to be from a working class family. Stephen offers his unique services to those who find themselves at that most difficult time in all our lives – the death of a loved one. with his extensive experience in the funeral industry managing two of Belfast’s leading funeral homes Stephen has never lost sight of the importance of treating families who have been bereaved with the utmost care and respect.

We know only too well how difficult it can be to make ends meet and how simple it is for a grieving family to be burdened with costs of a funeral. I cannot take away the families heartache and sorrow but we can help lessen the financial burden of significant funeral costs. We can offer a service that is up to and often over 30% cheaper than some local funeral homes.

We are a trusted part of the community, with a desire to help people in their time of need.
