Sure enough 6 weeks later my 90 y/o mother in law died. She was on home hospice so the procedure…read morewas a little different. After the pronouncing of her death I had to call the funeral home to pick her up. I was told they were busy, and they came in a timely manner. Even it's a loved one, a dead body in the bedroom is damned creepy. We were able to make arrangements the next day. I like how during the visitation they're so available and on top of things. Turns out we shared the day with a much younger man who was very popular and had almost 200 guests. We were in the smaller room across the way, yet as people came in they were drawn to our side to sign in. This basically led to me directing traffic, rather than visiting with our guests. So right away the director moved our sign in to inside our room, problem solved. They are very good at helping you keep costs down. At stressful times like this you want friendly, co-operative people at your service.

Hello, I have some serious comments and questions about the quality of the obituary "recording" you provided for my family at your stillwater location. I can barely hear any of the footage on any devices and, the first eulogy is completely muted although, all inaudible. It seems your "videographer attempted to correct the the sound quality without results- once. ALong with. the grainy quality of the video, clearly reminiscent of worse than an 80' VHS Video camera, their lack of attempt at staying on cue of the service was blatant. The inability for simple tasks such as, focusing on each family member eulogy and then switching to the the following featured music. The absence of giving a panorama or any other angles of the beautiful memorial table and environment I worked so hard to make Even just acknowledging the guests, eulogist, memorial table, so carefully arranged flowers,or slideshow- even the main pedestal will never be something we can refer too. I trusted you with what you promised and we paid for. And, now it is too late to have have any accurate preservation of my Mother's ceremony. I Would've happily had my friend use their iPhone and provide a record for our family. With visual and audible quality that can be cherished, shared, and experienced not only each other but those unable to attend our family-friends-grand kids, etc Especially during COVid where ceremony sizes were limited you had an even larger obligation to divulge the quality of the Camera, technology. and operator. That we could give what we promised them and they would not be able to, even remotely, experience the memorial and say goodbye to someone they loved. But, we trusted you, as promised to provide us with a technology adept record. So, we could worry about the intense weight of simply experiencing her funeral. You failed us to the highest extent I will now never be able to relive my mom's memorial in. Making a promise of things you couldn't provide and charge us highly for, especially, to grieving loved ones is unacceptable. It is something we have to live with the consequences for the rest of our lives. Other families have to experience this is what I want to prevent because, I know how it feels. Look forward to hearing from you.
