    Marvin and Maurice
    I was so sorry to hear of Bernieces death. She was a wonderful
    person. We served together on the Cedar City Schoolboard for a while. My mother, Pearl Austeel thought so much of both Berniece and Manuel. They were good neighbors and good friends. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Funeral Pre-Planning

Today more than ever, people are choosing to pre-plan or prepay for their own funeral arrangements. Such planning helps prevent the surviving family members from having to make arrangements on short notice, reduces emotional strain and helps to ensure that the wishes of the deceased will be respected.
