Dear Ian,
Our family would like to express our sincere appreciation for everything you did to support and assist us in planning our mother’s funeral.
Losing a loved one is always a time of mourning but you and Wayne demonstrated exceptional care in helping us give our mother a lovely service and celebration of life. You made a difficult time more bearable with your reassuring attention to every detail. Our every request, large or small, was met by you with efficiency and genuine caring for our family. You handled everything flawlessly and exceeded our expectations.
Your professionalism, gentle guidance and compassion for our family were very reassuring and enabled us to focus on what was most important ~ honouring our mother.
Thank you to you and your staff, Ian, for going above and beyond in ensuring that our family was well taken care of during this difficult time. Your kindness will never be forgotten.
Family of Mylthie Gonsalves
While on a cruise last month, my father passed away. If it had not been for Ian's incredible help, planning and attention it could have been a nightmare. Before we left Ian had suggested we make a funeral plan just in case (my father was elderly). We made plans for ourselves, including death insurance in a foreign country, and planned ahead for my father as well. Luckily we did. Ian took care of EVERYTHING until we got back a couple of days later. I could not have gone through my dad's passing without Ian by our side. We felt so incredibly taken care of and had nothing to think about at all as Ian did everything, thought of everything, and went far beyond what we could ever ask for in service and compassion!! Ian, you are a Godsend and we are so happy to place ourselves in your care. I will recommend you to everyone I know! I have known many funeral directors in my profession but have never met anyone who could compare, even in the slightest, to your level of professionalism, compassion and general "gift" of service to those who grieve. Bless you and thank you from the bottom of my heart! Rev. Linda Varin
