The services rendered to our late father Mr Ang Soon Huat was through and through perfect. We were glad to have been referred to Zick. My family and I am sure that our late father would have loved it too.
When my mum had cancer, she made her own funeral arrangement in advance. I was shocked when she tried giving me 30k to pay for her funeral expenses. Hence I went to source different quotation and found SFCS. They were affordable, transparent, and precise on whatever we communicated. I am thankful they were able to help save much cost so my mum is able to treat herself well when she is still alive.
After comparing between few providers, I ultimately chose SFCS because of their sincerity in providing information without me asking. I felt they are very sincere and will be able to guide me and my family through this difficult period.
