The health and safety of the public and our employees is our top priority.
We assure you that we are taking proactive measures to help prevent the spread of any potential illness.

- Employees feeling sickness are staying home.
- We use strict “Universal Precautions” as outlined by health authorities, a practice that has been in place since our inception, in handling our deceased loved ones. We are vigilant in this practice.
