Are you thinking about pre-planning your funeral? Pre-planning is the best way to choose how you're remembered, to ease the emotional and financial burden on your loved ones, to protect yourself from rising funeral costs, and to let your family know your final wishes.

Ordering flowers from our site ensures that your order will reach us or the family in a timely manner, and your gesture of support will remain acknowledged in the Book of Memories™ for future generations. We only work with local florists so we can maintain the sense of urgency and quality of your selections. We thank you for helping to support the family during their time of need, and will fondly remember your kind gesture.
We respect the sensitivity and dignity that comes with ordering tribute gifts from the funeral home. It is for this reason that we have attempted to design our online Sympathy Store with the utmost respect to the family and the deceased.

Condolence: I send you my deepest condolences for you and for your family. I can’t even begin to imagine how painful this is for you all. May Jehovah God provide you the strength you need to cope with this difficult situation. The Bible provides hope that you will be reunited with your loved one at Acts 24:15, which states, "there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous." I hope this message provides some comfort to friends and family, and I again offer my sincere condolences.
Condolence: Hello, I am truly sorry for your loss. I can't imagine the unbearable pain that you are feeling and going through. I just want to let you know that Jehovah God is there for you and your family members. Notice what says in 2 Corinthians 1:3,4 "Praised the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our trials so that we may be able to comfort others in any sort of trial with the comfort that we receive from God." Jehovah also gives us a comforting future that is just around the corner. Once Job asked Jehovah: "If a man dies, can he live again?" and Jehovah said: "You will call, and I will answer you. You will long for the work of your hands."( Job 14:13-15) Jehovah promises that there will be resurrection, John 5:28,29 says: "Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, and those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment." This is indeed a great hope for all of us. But there is one last important thing, Isaiah 55: 11 says: "So my word that goes out of my mouth will be. It will not return to me without results, But it will certainly accomplish whatever is my delight, And it will have sure success in what I send it to do."
Condolence: In the spring of 31 C.E., Jesus Christ boldly promised: “Just as the Father raises the dead up and makes them alive, so the Son also makes those alive whom he wants to. Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his [Jesus’] voice and come out.” (John 5:21, 28, 29) Yes, Jesus Christ promised that millions now dead will live again on this earth and have the prospect of remaining on it forever under peaceful, paradisaic conditions. (Luke 23:43; John 3:16; 17:3; compare Psalm 37:29 and Matthew 5:5.) Since Jesus made the promise, it is safe to assume that he is willing to fulfill it.
Condolence: Just in case you didn’t catch any of my voice, text messages, I thought it may be a good idea to post this on your obituary. I know in my heart that you will receive at least one of them. After all no one has shown me proof that you wouldn’t read them. Either way, what I had to say to you was far too important not to take that chance my friend. I must admit that when your son Ben text me on your phone I was taken back a bit. I believe it was perfect timing because the weight of not hearing your happy voice of encouragement any longer started too really sink in. Then not long after Ben’s text, your wonderful wife Victoria contacted me as well. That was a wonderful bonus. She is indeed the charming person I pictured in my mind when you mentioned her name. Hopefully someday I will be in contact your brother Ron. I just wanted to tell him what a great friend you were to so many people here and around the world. But I’m certain he already knows.
Here is a copy of my important message of gratitude that I sent to you earlier just in case you didn’t get my first text;
I just received the news Monday that you have passed away my dear friend. I hope with all my heart that you are now standing on the humanities roof top, where you belong! Lately it seems that its in dire need of repair. What better person than a Michael Gumm can fix it !
Thanks for helping us with our Solar Raceway product. That product is now selling like crazy. As a result, many people will prosper. What a successful life Michael ! I will certainly boast to many people about how you selflessly helped us to be a success.
Thank you my friend.
Regards "Your Pal Sal "

Bo Anselmo and all of us at Solar Raceway & New York Manufacturing are forever grateful to you Michael Gumm and your wonderful family.
