Removing the Guesswork

The People Behind Check-Out

Check-Out is comprised of a tightly-knit group of professionals and supported by industry consultants, mentors, family and friends. We are passionate about helping people to build and share their wishes and memories. Like so many others, this team has lived through the loss of loved ones. We have all experienced the trauma of making tough decisions on behalf of departed loved ones, but without the benefit of their guidance. Check-Out is our response to a real problem, shared by everyone.
