Our family has a family history since Laurin funeral home started. Our resent service for our mother Diane Jeffrey. Scott had a meeting on all our wishes for our dear mother. Our family had a loss of our dear brother 5 years ago. I had to plan the service for him because that was his wish as well. All alone having to plan the first one myself. Scott got me through such a hard and difficult time. He handled everything and help put less stress for me. My mother also had her mother, father and brothers services there through the years. There has also have had aunts and uncles and other family members

My husband's family recently lost their father. They had never planned a funeral and were unsure of all that needed to be done. Scott was absolutely wonderful. He explained everything to the family with patience and understanding. He took care of every detail. Our family truly appreciates your kindness. Thank you.
