Look no further, my auntie knew who she wanted to handle her funeral service before she passed away. I must say Leggett and Patterson did a beautiful job for her and our family. I love the fact that she added her personality within her casket. Our family was able to view her body before anyone elsesoon as we walked in the door there were memories filled with pictures of all of us together. I never seen soooo much work put in a funeral arrangements of all my years of going to funerals. This made it a little easier to not just cry but to laugh at all the memories we had together. Thanks for providing

Celebrations of Life was a God send. I do believe that Mrs. Sharon was called for this type of service. She went above and beyond for my brother William Floyd Jr. From those small details that we would overlook, she gave attention to it. Very professional and compassionate. From the time we walked through the doors of Celebrations of Life to the end at the grave site you could feel the spirit of Excellence and the spirit of love. Great job.
