Stoneham, 
Massachusetts,

An elderly man, visiting parent from Punjab state, had several lung infections and died. His grieving family began the difficult task of planning a funeral but were disheartened to find that the lowest quote they received from local funeral homes was $6,000. Thankfully, they contacted us for assistance, and we were able to arrange a dignified funeral service for their loved one at a cost of only $2,000. We are working closely with the family through the planning process to ensure that everything goes smoothly and according to their wishes. It was an honor to help them during this difficult time.
