Happy Hanukkah to all our Jewish friends. And our prayers and thoughts are with the Jewish families in Australia that were slaughtered by two crazed gunmen.

Good morning, I realize that social media is probably not the appropriate place. However, social media has become the mainstay. People don't make phone calls. People don't visit and people don't send cards. Everything is done by social media. That being said, my mom passed away a week ago Monday, I need to thank the following people for their hard efforts and long hours and dedication to our profession. First and foremost to my funeral intern/ office manager Leslie Pina. If it was not for her, I don't know how Iwould have made it through is very difficult time. She took up the role as secretary ,maintenance, funeral director, digital Creator. There's not enough Thank yous to say to her. To Don and Christy at Casket Sales, for helping me select an appropriate casket color scheme and Christy for your digital work and creating a custom head panel that was fitting for our mother. For Julie & staff Midwood Florist your creative work was unbelievable. Thank you and people are still talking today about the floral arrangements that you made. Zack Yates, Joy and Casey and the staff at Yates Wilbert vault. Again, thank you and to Robert Murphy at Forest Lawn East Cemetery. Robert, I owe you a martini, end to Summer and the staff at Red Rocks for making our funeral repass a very comfortable family dinner. To my other staff members. Stuart Thompson. Ben Cline and Danny Lanier. You guys performed extremely professional as you do on every service. From me and my family. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you. Special warm hugs to Elizabeth a home aide, from Aldersgate at Home, to the nurses and support staff Via Hospice. Even though we only had you for 24 hours, your care and compassion was unbelievable, Father Kramer from St. Matthews running out on Sunday afternoon in the rain to administer last rights, and to Deacon Michael Goad, Deacon at St. Gabriel Catholic Church, for your countless visits and your comforting words at the grave. Again, just saying thank you is not enough. God bless all of you and thank you very much
