Dear Larry, Lori and the entire Pearson's Crew, Your beautiful scarlet Poinsettia is greeting everyone who comes to my front door. If you could see my "Snoopy's christmas tree" you would think I needed a bright, cheerful Christmas plant.! Any you all certainly brought a gorgeous one. My family and I will enjoy it all through the Christmas season and into the new year. My heart-felt appreciation for your lovely poinsettia, and my best wishes for a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Love B.S.

Larry, As when our father passed away, Pearson's was once again the place where we wanted to be for our mother's visitation. We were especially grateful that you had a "pine box", and in that way, we were able to grant her wishes. Even during such a busy time for Pearson's, we only had to ask for what we needed. There was someone available to ask, at all times. Though I am certainly hopeful that there is no need to be seeing you again in the near future, it is a comfort to know where we would want and need to be. Thanks so much, Larry Sincerely, C.F.

Dear Larry and Staff, Thank you so very much for including J. and me in the Christmas Remembrance Service. I have attended many services in various roles from officiant, participant, and congregant. The service you provided is absolutely in the very top. The spirituality of the service bonded and in attendance helping each through their grief and pain. Someone said "Joy shared is joy increased and, pain shared is pain divided." Our pain was divided! Thank you and all the staff. Blessing and Love D.S.

Please Know how grateful the H. Family is for all you did to help us carry out Mr. H's wishes for his funeral and burial. Everything was beautifully planned and executed, thanks to you. Thanks also for your infinite patience. I'm certain much of our conversation could have (should have) taken place our meeting with you...but I suspect that happens a lot in your business! I hope we don't need you anytime soon but, if we do, it's a relief to know you're there. Fondly, M.H.

In October of last year (2020) my mother passed away. When we learned the end was near, I called around and spoke to funeral directors who literally gave me the creeps. Then I spoke to Lori Warf. She was amazing at one of the saddest moments of my life. She made me feel better because she was super empathetic without being cloying, she answered my questions and made assurances that made me realize we truly needed her to get through the transition of our mother leaving the planet. When we met in person after Mother passed away on a Sunday afternoon she was very helpful and she took the extra step to expedite burial at Cave Hill. She was terrific. I cannot say enough how much of a difference she made for us. I would have hugged her as we left the cemetary but of course could not due to COVID. I just peaked at the Pearson's site and saw that she is still with Pearson's and it is comforting to me to know that she is there helping others with her amazing attitude that has just that right touch of compassion and just the right touch of a sense of humor dealing with us in our time of need. Thank you Lori and thank you Pearson's for having such a wonderful asset for your clients.

Thank you so very much for all the organization and kindness you provided in the care of my grandson. Everyone involved with the planning & visitation were so thoughtful and efficient. I now know on a "first hand basis" why Pearson's has the reputation they do! Thank you for making a devastating event as easy as possible. Sincerely, J.K.
