Testimonials

Mr. Bass 2 Nov 2020

Thank you for the generosity that you continue to pour on the Lazarus Project each year. Your kindness is appreciated. We do not want to take advantage of you so if it becomes too much please let us know.

It is a beautiful community service and we truly thank you.

Sincerely,

Carolyn Ketchel

Dear Mr. Bass,

I hardly know where to begin. From the moment I walked into your business I knew this is where I wanted the service for my husband to be conducted. Christine Gregory was empathetic, efficient and extremely knowledgeable and helpful. All questions were answered and I left knowing my wishes would be respected.

I never had to "check up" on any details as Christine kept me informed and every step.

As you are well aware, the death of a loved one, especially unexpectedly, places a huge emotional burden on the family. Your beautiful facility and especially Christine removed a huge task and allowed our family to grieve together knowing things were in good hands.

Thank You All

Sincerely,

Loretta Maurer
