OM Update

July - 2013 Here is John the entire month before

Here is John when he is on vacation. He is calm,

Memorial Day. Frantic, crazed and

relaxed and ready for anything.

ready to explode!

I am sure that we can all relate to this. The stress of getting everything done before Memorial Day can really take its toll; even in the months following, we stay busy and stress can be a factor. To avoid this kind of chaos, here’s what we suggest……Stay Calm, make sure to take breaks, stay calm and focused, stay calm, don’t forget to ask for help when you need it, and finally—stay calm. We hope that as the summer progresses, we all remember we are a team and our goal is to provide the best service we can for your families. Please never hesitate to give us a call for help. Our Fabulous Customer Service Folks are here to be frantic and crazed for you so you can relax while serving your family. We will find your order and make sure it is taken care of even if it means tearing apart the computer! So remember, in the words of one of our most Fabulous Customer Service Folks “don’t you worry your pretty little head”, we’ll take care of you and your families!

My daughter, Jessica (aka Boots) has been on an All Star Cheer team for the past three years. Her last performance of the season was on April 6 & 7 at the Anaheim Convention Center in California and I had the privilege of being able to travel with her team and watch her perform. The name of her cheer club is Wolfpack Athletics in Gresham, OR and her team name is Kenai. They were in the Small Gym Large Junior Level 2 category and their team placed third. CONGRATULATIONS for a job well done and a lot of hard work, drama, tears, sore muscles (and did I say drama) over the past season. Her team consisted of 9-15 year old girls (she is 15). We are now gearing up for a new season in which she has been placed on a Level 2 and a Level 3 team. We are looking forward to many more hours of gym time and lots of competitions. Their big end of the year competition will be in Dallas, TX this coming season. I have been dragged kicking and screaming into being a “Cheer Mom” but have loved every minute of it, and the waiting in hard metal chairs with lots of screaming boys & girls along with parents for that very special 2 ½ minutes to see her perform is so worth it. On a side note Boots was able to meet up with her birth mother and birth father along with three half siblings in Anaheim which was the highlight of her trip. She had never met two of her half siblings and had only met one of her half-sisters about 10 years ago. They were all at her performance which made the trip even more special.

OM Memory Tile

What do you do when families take the ashes home? Since most of your revenue sources are being usurped by cremation here’s an idea. We have developed over the years and continue to produce 6”x6” black tiles that are lasered with name dates portrait and life elements for families to take home and place with the ashes. We call them the OM Memory Tile. Even if families choose to scatter it’s an opportunity for the family to memorialize at home and a way for you to capture a few extra dollars in the ever shrinking cremation revenue market. We can do these quickly and inexpensively and as you can see (insert photo) they look great. Families that recognize the value and affordability have ordered 10-15 of them for all members of the remaining family. With special quantity discounts ($79 for one, $250 for 5 and $350 for 10), these are an
