    Prices in plain sight

    Every funeral director now publishes the same standardised price list so families can compare like with like. Ours is one tap from every page, along with the local crematorium fees.

    Three generations of one family

    Walter H. Squires, a Tiverton wheelwright, founded the firm in 1933. It is run today by the third generation, Ryan and Melanie Squires, with 145 years of experience between the generations.

    We are independent and our staff are full time, trained through the Independent Funeral Directors College. The person who answers the phone at three in the morning is one of us.

    From tradition and integrity comes peace of mind.
