Report
Leverington Funeral Home of the Northern Hills has been absolutely phenomenal. Mark has been extremely professional and has eased a lot of the burden that is associated with the loss of a loved one. Our familys first experienced this wonderful, caring person and business was with the passing of my Mother Peggy Kidd in 2007. From the first moment that we sat down with Mark Leverington, he made it so very easy on our family at our worst possible time. Nothing has changed with the passing of my Father Lauren Kidd. Thank you to Leverington Funeral Home and Mark Leverington for their continued professionalism
