A little late in redinnspog but thanks for stating the truth about SCI. This profession is often vilified and it seems that the large corporations are particularly targeted.I worked for Alderwoods and when SCI acquired our combo location, I stayed on despite the fear that they would make unwelcome changes. The complete opposite is actually what happened and I have the priviledge to work with some of the best funeral professionals in the business and a top-notch company. BTW, I like your blog and have added it to my outgoing links.
