Yesterday we had the privilege for carrying out the funeral service of a gentleman who had a passion for classic vehicles. We would like to thank Mortons Funeral Hire for their elegant Rolls Royce Hearse ‘Bramwell’ and their driver Luke for providing excellent service and a fitting tribute for a much loved gentleman.
