IN LOVING MEMORY OF FRANCIS “FRANK” GRISWOLD

Now we, as friends of Frank, grieve the loss of such a faithful friend. Frank will be missed by all who knew him.
Our Canine Staff Associate
Laney Kae Hughey
Passed away on August 17, 2013.
Our Office Is Extremely Empty Without Her To Play With During The Day. She Was The center Of Attention At Work Everyday. We Miss Her Tremendously.
Laney is our residence house pet and has been a member of the Hughey family since December 2001. She is involved daily with the administration operations of Jacksonville Pet Funeral Home and Pet Crematory and keeps the office staff very busy throwing her favorite toy, her tennis ball. She likes to keep our staff members distracted by suckering them in to throwing the ball.
