Tommy, thank you and your family and staff for being so GRACIOUS, MERCIFUL AND KIND, in every way. From making the removal, to arranging the funeral (UNDER CHARGING), to providing a good cemetery for my Mother’s body to rest, I am deeply, deeply grateful. Her remains were so well prepared for viewing that I experienced the presence of GOD. You are truly blessed! GOD allowed me to see his GREAT, AWESOME POWER through you. Thank you.” – Alan K. Faulks
