My Nan's funeral was arranged through the Co-op (she was buried) and everything was lovely and dignified.
My uncle was cremated about 18 years ago and his ashes were buried, they were handed to my auntie in a lovely wooden box. I don't know if that funeral was through the Co-op though.Striving to clear the mortgage before it finishes in Dec 2028 - amount currently owed - £24,616.090
