  "Opinion: My mother recently passed in Arizona, and her cremains arrived in the mail on Tuesday. The AZ mortuary told me they would be shipping them in a $0027temporary urn$0027--I didn$0027t realize that meant $0027in a plastic bag inside a cardboard box$0027 (Laurie at Lighthouse confirmed this is not up to standard). After trying several times to reach Lindquist in Yarmouth and never receiving a call back, I decided to try Lighthouse and Laurie told us to come on by. When my father and I arrived there she spent a good half hour explaining urn options to us and all the important things you don$0027t know when you haven$0027t been through this before. I was deeply impressed with her empathy and courtesy. We haven$0027t actually done business with her yet, but when we do I doubt my opinion will change. That personal touch is SO important in this business, and it is a relief to work with professionals who take it seriously. When I told Laurie about my experience with Lindquist, she told me they are no longer family-owned...when you$0027re dealing with the loss of a loved one, the last thing you need is to deal with an impersonal corporation. Lighthouse is obviously not a full-service funeral home, but if they can meet your needs, I highly recommend them."
