"Reporting the death of my father was relatively straightforward, I was afforded a swift appointment with the registrar, who was gracious, and sympathetic, while advising of the legalities.
You can only be guided, in these times by those who deal with it, objectively.
I found this difficult task eased by a very smooth, effective system. Not all government offices are so good! Bury metropolitan council, take a bow!👍"
