Dear Andrew, I would like to express my great appreciation for the manner in which you assisted me and my family in farewelling and celebrating my Grandmother. Your patience, kindness, gentleness and understanding was just what was needed. There is something sweet about coming across someone who is just right for their vocation. Many Thanks. P.S. I was touched to receive the grief booklet before receiving the invoice. Very thoughtful also.
