Joe Edwards Jr. - I want to thank you for the exceptional and professional way you handled every detail of my mother's services. Preparations for the funeral and prayer service could not have been more perfect! My mother looked beautiful, and I am sure she was very pleased, as we all were.
A huge thank you to your hairdresser and your staff, but most of all thank you Joe! Susan A.
