Obituaries act as quiet reminders of the finite nature of our lives. Yet, for those who have recently experienced the death of a family member or friend, an obituary means so much more. It is a bittersweet reminder of all we've lost, but it can also help us to remember all we enjoyed while they were alive.
G. K. Chesterton wrote, Courage is almost a contradiction in terms. It means a strong desire to live taking the form of readiness to die. The men and women who served in the armed forces, whether during a time of war, or one of peace, are living examples of that contradiction. Each should be honored and remembered, so that our gratitude never fades.

Mom died out of town and had to be shipped home for burial. The Scott D Conklin funeral home did a wonderful job and I can't say thank you enough! Everything was wonderful from the preparations to the funeral. Scout even found a bagpiper for the graveside service.
If you're faced with the sad occasion to need this sort of service, please consider this funeral home.
