Memorial Service

Olive Chase August 18, 2012

Sarah –

Thank you so much for your assistance in making my dad’s memorial service at Highfield Hall the wonderful event that it was. Despite the circumstances, it was wonderful to see so many family friends in such a lovely setting. The preparation of the two rooms was very well done, the food wonderful, and the service superb – please pass on our thanks to Kelly as well. We received many compliments regarding every aspect of the event. We certainly couldn’t have carried it off from the west coast without your assistance. When given the opportunity we will definitely speak very highly of The Casual Gourmet.

Thank you so much again for all your and your staff’s efforts to make the memorial service wonderful! you carried if off beautifully.

With its Mediterranean design and sprawling green lawns, […]
