In some cases, the family member was almost indigent. It was always passed down that this was the place to help our loved ones make the final journey. There were three in the last 12 years including both parents. The professionalism, compassion and advice were irreplaceable. Friends along the years have also used them as well and were comforted with their services. This is one of the best businesses I have ever dealt with which in a way is sad because you don't want to need them for a long time. If it is apparent a loved one's end of journey is imminent, I give them a call for advice that has been helpful to prepare for the first steps after death. I see that someone had an unfavorable experience. It looks like that was during the height of COVID lockdown when a lot of things were challenging. I am confident that they learned from unique experiences during this time and adapted
