From Roger taking the first call, to Jeff who managed the funeral and wake, to Margaret who beautifully personalized the celebration of life, my loved one was indeed Honored. I have attended a great many funeral services, but none could compare with Macken in Island Park. As devastating as the loss, the celebration of a wonderful person was emphasized more than the loss. From the first meeting to the exit from church, my loved one was truly celebrated. Tears yes but tears of joy for the care, concern and honor with which Macken staff conducted this Celebration of Life. I am forever grateful. Mary Arnold
