Our staff is courteous and understanding. Our facilities are comfortable and immaculate. Our services are handled with dignity and respect. If you are not completely satisfied with any of our services or facility offerings, we will reduce or eliminate the charge. We are the only funeral home in the area to offer this guarantee.
Funeral and Cremation costs can be very confusing. Often times other funeral & cremation providers will quote what seems like a low price, but actually they do not give you the complete costs and there will be hidden add on charges after you have chosen to utilize their services. We have made it easier ...
Just found out that Vivian passed.
She was our good friend and a great neighbor.
We had long talks in the street and she always came to our parties.
We shared a love of music and the beach.
Still would like to hear her singing recordings.
She loved her family.

I just saw this – wondering about dear Vivian. She was a delight – sparkling and caring. She had a great relationship with Clara. I SO enjoyed seeing her. Her family is so blessed to have had her as mother and grandmother – and many wonderful memories. I loved her dearly.
