Heart to Heart
In our gathering space at the funeral home is a tree adorned with hearts made of paper, wood, and yarn. Paper hearts to write a note to a loved one. Wood and Yarn hearts for keepsakes. Anyone is welcome to a heart from our tree!

Help for Coping With Grief
Holidays, anniversaires, and the "first times " without a loved one happen throughout the year. You may come to feel excited, lonely, anxious, moody, restless, apprehensive, angry, happy, tense, nervous, anticipatory, sad or depressed.

You may experience some or all of these emotions at different times.

This is okay.   This is normal.   This is grief.

Wherever you are on your grief journey, please know you remain in our thoughts. We hope you find the guides on this page helpful. 

There is no right way or wrong to grieve. As long as we grieve; allow our mind and body to take the journey. It is a process which everyone travels at their own pace and in their own way - even within the same family. Be aware of that and support each other.

Traveling Through Grief
May you find a hand to hold when the path
seems unsteady;
May you find a shoulder which allows tears to be shed;
May you find arms that will embrace with comfort;
May you find an ear to listen - just listen;
May you find someone with to sit in solitude when needed;
May you know you need not travel this journey alone.

Expression of Thanks

Family of Mac Boldon
Jeff and Kelly, 
Thank you for all you did to make Dad's Celebration of Life the beautiful tribute it was. The flowers, photos, items he cherished were so thoughtfully displayed. It truly depicted who our Dad was and his life as we knew it. 
It seems to me that you both were born to do this work, this ministry. It's hard, as a family member, trying to explain the vision you have in honoring your dad's life amid the emotions of loss, grief, and sorrow. Your ability to actively listen, respond with compassion and professional clarity in the midst of our turbulent emotions was stellar and resulted in much needed closure for myself and our family. 
Thank you for your kindness, your professionalism, your patience, your hard work, and compassion. Its memory remains long after the day ends. 
Sincerely, Sue Meska 

Family of Michael Mans
Jeff and Kelly,
Please accept my heartfelt gratitude for your incredible support you've shown my brother, Barb, and our entire family. You were truly exceptional friends.
You are without a doubt the finest kind of people. You were our unwavering strength during a time of immense need.
Love Lynne Mans-Peterson and Mark 

Family of Constance Pheifer
Dear Jeff and Kelly,
I just wanted to let you know that we appreciated everthing (even the things we don't know about) that you did to make mom's memorial service perfect! I know how difficult it was to coordinate services long distance, but you did it flawlessley. Thank you.

Thank you Evergreen Funeal Home (Jeff & Kelly) for everything you did to make things easier for us during this difficult time. Your kindness and expertise are very much appreciated. You helped us in ways that we didn't even know we needed help with. With heartfelt thanks, the family of Lois Wittwer
