We were humbled this holiday season to gather in memory of those we honored during 2022 at our annual Christmas Memorial Gatherings in Ames and Boone in December.

The events offered our team an opportunity to reconnect with those we served, while offering families a chance to celebrate the life of their loved one during the holiday season.

We thank all who placed their trust in us during 2022. We look forward to continuing to serve this community with the same dignity and integrity we always have.
