Dear Friend:

As you know, funeral arrangements are a deeply personal choice. We at Crowell Brothers Funeral Home continue to experience the increasing demand for cremation funeral services, which we now have to conduct offsite because we need a Special Use Permit from the City of Peachtree Corners to install a crematory retort in our existing funeral home and chapel. Currently, we have to relyon other funeral homes in other locations to provide cremation services, usually in Lawrenceville or Loganville.

There is clearly a need for an on-site crematory at Crowell Brothers. We would appreciate your support in favor of granting this Special Use Permit.

Sincerely yours

Jeff Crowell
Alan Crowell

And the Staff of Crowell Brothers Funeral Home

Ridiculous that they have to outsource such a basic service. Let them install it already.

This makes so much sense. Why drive all the way to Lawrenceville just for this? Keep it local.

Less time moving people around means more focus on the families. Good move.

I trust Crowell Brothers completely. They have handled my family with such grace and they deserve to have their own equipment onsite.
