    When unforeseen occurrence befalls us and the enemy death strikes our grief is great. It’s at times like this that we need comfort and support whether we are acquainted or not. May you find comfort in God’s promise of resurrection. Acts 24:15 John 5:28,29. and when death will be no more Rev 21:4

I just can’t get over how beautiful everything was for my mom’s funeral. She had a rough last four weeks but your amazing team totally did her justice! I was pretty confused during that hard time, but Brian, you made sure that all the “I”s were dotted and all the “T”s crossed. For that, I thank you. I also would like to thank the amazing team of makeup artists. My mom looked beautiful.
