FRIENDS TO REMEMBER PET SERVICES

 

 Helps pet owners pay proper respects to a beloved animal

 

The loss of a cherished family pet is a sad chapter in a family’s life, and often the first experience of loss for children. During this time, many pet owners in the Mid-Ohio Valley have contacted Leavitt Funeral Homes to ask about meaningful and caring ways to honor their pets close place within the family.

 

After receiving a number of similar phone calls, we decided to use our experience in helping people cope with the loss of a family member to support them during this special loss,” says Stephen Leavitt, co-owner of Leavitt Funeral Services and Friends to Remember Pet Services. “We handle all the details and arrangements after a pet’s passing, so families can concentrate on the memories of their pet.
