Marcia was so kind, and genuinely concerned for what my family was going through. She explained everything and wrote it down so we could refer to it later. She spent a lot of time listening to my concerns and comforted me while i cried. She treated us like family.

Mother wanted pink roses, a pink dress, and a pink liner in her casket so her hair would look white, and she
