“Mr. Werthman helped us develop a theme and did a wonderful job of capturing the enormity of the Arlington burial service while explaining in pictures what my Dad did to earn the honor… Mr. Werthman was at all times professional in his handling of our account. We were all very pleased with the final product… My Dad’s Arlington burial service was an event that we will never forget.

“Hi Jerry, It has been 8 months since my Dad’s funeral at Arlington – hard to believe. I wanted to thank you again for your fantastic work. The final piece exceeded all of our expectations. I have watched it probably 100 times and it is timeless. I thought eventually I would watch it and not cry, but it happens every time. Probably always will. The video has touched many hearts and will do so for generations to come. As the anniversary of my father’s passing approaches, this tribute to him will help keep his memory fresh in our hearts. Thank you for your incredible effort. Thanks also for your service – I think your military career certainly brings a different perspective to your work. Bless you.”
