"My husband died recently. I would like to tell you why I highly recommend the services of Marilaurice Hemlock to assist you with the enormous events surrounding the death and remembrance of a loved one. Our family’s experience of her professional assistance at the time of my husband’s death was extremely profound, meaningful and valuable ... During the funeral celebration of his life, I remember sitting there and just letting the whole experience wash over me. I felt a bit overwhelmed and remember thinking that Marilaurice and the others would take care of the funeral ritual beautifully. I could just sit and be present to all that was unfolding."
Family, friends and some folks I don’t know well, spoke to me or wrote to me about what a powerful and tender experience it had been to be present at his funeral. I am so grateful I had the professional, experienced and personal leadership of Marilaurice Hemlock for this precious and powerful event in our lives."

We so appreciate your help in guiding our family and circle of friends through the planning and execution of the Celebration of Life
for my daughter and her husband. Your organization skills, creativity, sensitivity, and compassion were a perfect blend.

thank you
The most helpful things were the space that you held for the different and complicated responses that each family member offered during the most difficult time; both in e-mail and during the zoom call. You made everyone feel heard.
It was also helpful that you gave us time to respond to correspondence where you had questions that needed answering,
as we needed time to discuss and decide. You went above and beyond in your presence,
and also in creating the beautiful life story in written form. L 2022
You both took the time to learn who Mike was in life and hear our wishes for his service. I couldn’t have asked for a better service for him.
