So Courtney asked, question for Chris, do you have refrigeration yet? Technically I do because I have refrigeration in Red Lion.
I don't want to say I've ever turned down a family because a family, they have that choice to use us or to not use us.
But we have determined in certain situations that maybe we're not the best fit for that family.
And so I did see this question pop up a couple times on social media.
You know, what if you get someone here to the funeral home and the family doesn't have the funds to pay for the funeral service? We'll work with that family to get the individual to a another funeral home of that family's choice.
But no, I've never I've never had a family call in and I say, I can't help you.
Now you did have a situation, Chris, a couple of weeks or no, it was a couple of months ago where you got a first call.
And so we didn't, yeah, we didn't have permission to bring that person back into our care.
