You were 4 years old and seeing the ocean for the first time. One big wave rolled in and knocked you off your feet and into the surf. Fearing the worst, your dad scooped you up from the water and wiped away the tears. You spent some time walking the beach from the safety of his shoulders until you were brave enough to face the waves again, together.
And while you have idolized your dad throughout life, you’ll want to celebrate times like these after his death. A meaningful funeral allows you to grieve and say goodbye with family and friends.
We know the value of creating a meaningful funeral. Call us for more information.

casino, hotel and conference fa-cility and be built for between$60 million and $100 million.
That would be similar towhat’s offered across the SiouxFalls border in Larchwood, Iowa.The Grand Falls Casino, whichcelebrated its first anniversaryon Saturday, includes an eventscenter, hotel and golf course anddraws gamblers from Sioux Falls.
“It’s a nice neighbor, but itbenefits Iowa, which is great forIowa,” Assam said.
When the proposal came upduring the 2010 gubernatorialcampaign between then Lt. Gov.Daugaard and Democratic candi-date Scott Heidepreim, Daugaardsaid he was skeptical.
Tony Venhuizen, the gover-nor’s spokesman, said Daugaardremains skeptical but is willing toconsider whatever informationproponents would like to share.
A proposal to build a casinoalso requires a long and detailedprocess that includes economicanalysis, citizen input and
consultation with local govern-ments, Venhuizen said. And be-cause it’s tribal run, it wouldneed approval by the U.S. Secre-tary of the Interior.
“The governor does not be-lieve that he should state a defi-nite opinion until he can reviewthat material,” Venhuizen said byemail. “Flandreau has not begunthis process yet, so it wouldquite some time until that infor-mation would be available.”
The tribe would first need toacquire property and put thatproperty into trust, which couldtake as long as a year, he added.
When tribal officials last yearmet with Darrin Smith, the city’sdirector of community develop-ment, Assam said Smith toldthem they first needed to get thegovernor on board.
Smith did not respond to mes-sages left by The AssociatedPress.
Assam said the tribe would belooking at locations on the out-skirts of town which could beused to facilitate tourism andeconomic development inside acorridor
“It would not be somethingwe’d be looking to put in any-body’s back yard,” Assam said.
