What our clients say:

Feeling the responsibility of having to honour the passing of a loved one was hard to bear during such a grieving process.
I called Dalen for help with taking some of this burden off my shoulders. Dalen was extremely understanding and accommodating to any ideas or visions presented to him. Dalen and David went above and beyond in helping me with my fathers celebration of life.
It was very important for me to tell his story and David really cared about that, talking in lengths with his loved ones and doing everything he could to paint his picture. His level of understanding and effort was surpassing and appreciated!
Thanks guys
