Heartfelt Feedback from Families

We have had the honour of hosting many families, and the feedback we receive speaks volumes about the care and compassion we strive to provide. One family recently shared, “You absolutely did do us justice; everything was perfect. There was so much love and warmth in the room. Everyone commented on how beautiful the venue was along with the setup, and Mel was an absolute dream. We felt how deeply you cared for what we wanted to do. In the end, it didn’t even feel like a wake, but more like a catch up with old friends and new – family and loved ones. You and your team created such a safe, beautiful place for us to celebrate Lorelei. We will always be grateful for that.” Moments like these remind us of the profound impact we can have in helping families celebrate their loved ones.
