Why an independent funeral director is better

Single minded devotion

At Thomas Marin & James Scott, all our attention is concentrated on satisfying the needs of our client families. We are not distracted or bound by corporate rules handed down from head office. We are flexible, and responsive to your needs.

Long term commitment

Not only do we want to meet your current needs, we also seek to build a relationship of trust, so that you will return to us in the future. We have a long term commitment to our community. This is where we live and work. It's where we plan to stay. When you need us, we'll be there.

Devoted to families, not profits

Large concerns answer to shareholders. At Thomas Marin & James Scott, we answer to you. In our locally owned firm there is no pressure from head office to increase profits. We know our business will do well when we serve you well.

Knowledge of local traditions

Funeral traditions vary greatly around the country. Thomas Marin & James Scott know and appreciate the local customs and expectations, because we have served in this community for years.
