Jim Kiley was very knowledgeable and informative during our visit. We prepaid our cremation expenses and felt a huge sense of relief that it was one more item ticked off our "final arrangements list". We also appreciate the fact that this is a local family owned business that carefully considers each of their clients needs/wants and does the best they can to fulfill each request.

Jim Kiley was very professional and personal. He explained everything very well. My husband and I both feel a lot better having a plan in place before something happens. It's comforting to know that either one of us, when something happens, all we have to do is pick up the phone and call them they will take over during such an emotional stressful time.

Our family has had Davis Seawinds services for several family members through the years. We had excellent attention given to our personal needs, staff was professional & respectful.

We give Davis-Seawinds our HIGHEST recommendation and rating. 5 stars. Great price for the beautiful facility and professional staff. Justin went out of his way to help us play a DVD of My moms pictures on a TV, kudos to him.. I wish they were in my hometown, but for Florida, this hits the mark. We were the "demanding & very particular family, some might say difficult", but Davis-Seawinds far exceeded our expectations in every way..

Tips on Writing a Message of Condolence

You may not know exactly what you want to say in your Book of Memories™ condolence message. In fact, this may be the first time you've ever been faced with sharing your feelings or offering comforting words to someone who is grieving a loss. Whether it's the first time, or the fifth, we're here to offer some assistance. We've compiled some tips, and brought together a list of expressive words you can use in your condolences.

Tip #1: Be sincere. It's important to mean what you say, on the deepest emotional level. Yes, we know, "saying what you mean" can be harder - that's why we're here.

Tip #2: Keep it simple. You don't need to say much more than "I'm sorry for you loss," yet it's always wonderful to share a personal memory of their loved one, if you have one.

Tip #3: Don't tell them you know how they feel. Because you can't really know; even if you've endured the loss of a loved one in the past - your grief was yours, and this is theirs.

Tip #4: Share how you felt when you heard the news. Perhaps you were shocked, disbelieving, or deeply saddened. Let them know how the passing affected you personally.

Tip #5: Share Remind them that you will always hold the memory of their loved one close to you. It will be a comfort to them to know that their loved one will be remembered.
