We were truly honored to serve the Rogers family yesterday as they gathered to bid farewell to a cherished loved one. Our dedicated in-house planning and decor team, Elan Shari Events, provided thoughtful assistance in coordinating the arrangements and creating an inviting atmosphere for the repast. Following the heartfelt service at St. Andrew’s Church, the family seamlessly transitioned to The Great Hall for a time of fellowship and remembrance.

We understand that grieving the loss of a loved one is an incredibly challenging journey, and our mission is to alleviate the stress and concerns often associated with planning the repast. It is always a privilege to collaborate with our esteemed partners at Family First Funeral Services, ensuring that every detail is managed with the utmost care and compassion, allowing families to focus on what truly matters—supporting one another and cherishing the memories of those they have lost.
