Rachel and Margaret helped to make a terrible situation manageable, nothing was too much trouble, their compassion and empathy was admirable. I visited Gary several times before the funeral and my requests were always carried out with no rush to leave. Thank you so much for everything you did, Gary’s funeral was a wonderful celebration of his life
