Edward Towner said: “I’m really proud to see the next generation come on board.

“Both of them are having to learn fast but they are doing very well and seem to be enjoying the challenge – our line of work is not everyone’s cup of tea but it is very rewarding to be able to help bereaved people in what can be their darkest hour.”
