Today I went to see my grandma. The first time in a year and a half. I use to see her once a week and clean her plot but life happened and it took me a bit to get back. I couldn’t find her stone. I thought I remembered but I was not finding it. A site worker came to ask if I was ok. I began to cry and said I couldn’t find my grandma. He said “well let me help you”. Before I knew it, I had 3 of their yard workers assisting in the search for my grandma. Once she was found, they raised her stone and my Aunts stone whose laid to rest one plot over. They gave me flowers for her before we left and said they’d be sure to take care of her. I don’t remember all of their names. Rest Haven, you have some great men working for you. Please ask the one who goes by “big foot” who those other 2 men were because they deserve the recognition!

I met with Dignity Memorial representative Tiffany and she was absolutely amazing to work with! Pre planning for your own funeral is not something comfortable or easy to do but Tiffany was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful to me and my family. She answered all of our questions and concerns regarding details for my funeral arrangements as well as how my family would be taken care of and the things that they would need to do as well as the things that Dignity Memorial would take care of. I’m so glad that Tiffany was so helpful, knowledgeable and understanding about my last wishes and how I wanted my funeral to be as well as how my family would not need to worry about last minute decisions. I would definitely recommend Tiffany with Dignity Memorial and McLarens Resthaven Chapel and Mortuary staff.

I am writing to express my gratitude and provide overwhelming positive feedback regarding the wonderful experience my wife and I had attending your veterans day ceremony on November 11, 2025. From the moment we arrived, we were met with warmth and professionalism. Cheryl was the first staff member we encountered, and her cheerful and pleasant demeanor set a welcoming tone for the entire event. The ceremony itself was excellent, and specifically commend Keith for his outstanding work as the master of ceremonies. We had a nice conversation with him, and his command of the event was engaging and respectful. The hospitality extended to us afterward was truly exceptional. The coffee and donut reception was a thoughtful addition, and the staff members facilitating the gathering were simply superb. We were amazed by the genuine interest shown by every person we spoke with, including Alice and Joyce when we first walked into the reception area,and Kim and Rhonda, who were attentive in offering refills. My wife and I were particularly touched that every individual mentioned took the time to speak with us and generally interested with my time in the service. They are, truly, a great bunch of people and a credit to your organization. Thank you again for hosting a meaningful and memorable event for the veterans and their families. Sincerely, Jerry and Terrie Toms. U.S. .Navy veteran and wife

I worked closely with Andrew Wegener to prepare for my mom's celebration of life. Andrew could not have been kinder or more helpful. Andrew helped me create a perfectly unique celebration for my mom. Everyone at McLarens Restgaven was professional and gracious. The team at McLaren's Resthaven Chapel did everything they said they would do for us and provided everything they promised. The price was better than I expected; the costs were reasonable and manageable. Thank you to everyone at McLaren's chapel for making a sad event a beautiful and memorable afternoon for us to say goodbye to our loved one.

I was visiting the burial sites of my brother, grandparents, and great grandparents. The crew of David, Luke, and Gabe went way above in the help of locating and assisting in making the vase accessible. They made my trip worth everything! Kudos
