"I recommend that individuals take the time to select and pre-pay for their funeral arrangements. I appreciate that this is not something a lot of people are comfortable doing, however, it takes a lot of stress off whomever is having to make your arrangements in what is already a very stressful time. Also, your family or friends may not even know what you want or, more importantly, what you do not want."

"My parents had pre-arranged their funeral package which made things a lot easier. Still, there are so many things that need to be tended to. It's a stressful process. Karen just made the whole process seamless. She took the time to explain everything carefully, gave really helpful suggestions, and provided encouragement and support at the service. Later, she went above and beyond the call of duty by helping with the obituary. I am so glad Mom and Dad chose First Memorial and most grateful to Karen and the team for the kind assistance."
