    To the Family,

    I’m so sorry for your loss. My husband and I have lived two doors down from Sylvia for years. We talked about the weather alot. We didn’t get to know her well enought yet. But I knew that she was a good person. Again I’m sorry for you loss.

So many people commented that it was the best funeral they had ever attended! We can\’t say enough about Mark Langendorf\’s professionalism, his attention to detail, and ensuring that my father\’s funeral went smoothly from start to finish.
