    It was a beautiful and welcomed experience in the handling all the details, in the sorrowful loss of my husband. At Scanlan’s, with Meghan Owens, being so kind, so professional, taking care of all our needs. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being a champion to us, as we grieved.

    Scanlan’s is top notch for beauty, light, and peace, along with accommodations for children’s room equipped with games on computers. We loved having coffee within your beautiful appointed room, with the fireplace going. I was so happy that your establishment made it uplifting and very nice, with our sadden hearts.
    Thank you Meghan for your help and kindness.
