“Guidance you trust. Care you feel.”
Those words matter — because care should never feel rushed, transactional, or impersonal.
Care means feeling seen when the world feels overwhelming.
It means being heard, even when you don’t have the right words.
It means being valued as a person — not reduced to a number, a form, or a checklist.
Moments that require guidance are often some of the hardest moments people face.
And in those moments, trust isn’t built through speed or efficiency alone — it’s built through presence, patience, and listening.
That’s the standard I hold myself to.
If you ever sit across from me, my goal isn’t to rush you through decisions or treat you like the next appointment on a schedule.
My goal is to make sure you feel heard, respected, and genuinely cared for — every step of the way.
Because care you feel is the kind of care that lasts!
Always at your service,
Chris

Have you ever hesitated to mention someone’s name after they passed, afraid it might reopen old wounds?
Here’s the truth: hearing their loved one remembered often brings comfort, not pain. It tells them their person still matters.
Share this reminder, because someone out there needs permission to speak their loved one’s name today.

You know when the local church has a fundraiser that the neighborhood funeral director is going to be eating good for dinner tonight!
I had the chance to stop by Trinity AME Zion Church on Main Street in Delta today to snag a turkey dinner plate and my goodness it is delicious! I can’t wait for the next one!!!!!
