It’s not always easy to be a Funeral Celebrant. But receiving cards/notes like these always make it worth it.

Today we lay to rest Richard ‘Rick’ Martell. A man who served our country in the Army at the age of 17. A dairy farmer, and a drywaller/framer. Rick was kind, honest, and hardworking. He loved to laugh and tell stories about the crazy things he did as a young man. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
