Recently had the chance to pre plan and pay for my final arrangements through Hardage-Giddens. I had been planning on doing this for some time, but a medical scare two weeks ago made me take action.
The lady I worked with, Elizabeth walked me through all the steps of pre planning with great compassion and a great attitude. This is not an easy topic to discuss, but Elizabeth made me feel as though I was talking with a friend.

Lynn helped a very unexpected and heartbreaking situation become manageable. She and all of the staff were helpful, sympathetic, and just overall supportive. It takes a special type of personal to find the balance of sympathetic and professional, and they were all of that. We didn’t once feel any pressure to choose upgraded packaging. Lynn listened, sympathized and made sure we covered everything to make sure we felt like my MIL was honored. Would highly recommend as a guide to help you through the hardest days of your life.
