Seasons Greetings to you and your family. It has been an honor to be of service to you. We extend a heartfelt thank you for allowing us to serve you and your families during times like these. We know that during holiday seasons and special events, i.e. birthdays, anniversaries and etc. Our hearts mourn when we lose a loved one. And it helps when we have a point of contact that we can go to. That is why we put up monuments and flowers in cemeteries. Today, we light this green candle which represent life and peace (He makes me to lie down in green grass). As we light this candle, we invite you, your family and friends to light a red candle to commemorate the love and the remembrance of your loved ones. This “Memorial Page” will remain indefinitely on our website. You can post photos, comments or light a candle anytime.
Sincerely,
Kelly Smith GKFH
