"Everyone, Pam, Beth, John & Steven went above and beyond to make Daddy's services personal and meaningful. They worked exceptionally hard to ensure family from literally all over the country, including Hawaii, have an opportunity to speak at our virtual funeral. It was an intimate and loving memorial for all involved. We received many positive comments from spectator guests as well"
