Barbara Lee
Barb helps with all aspects of the family business. She enjoys answering the phone and helping to arrange services and gatherings.
Barb is honored to be working with families to make pre-arrangements. She is passionate and believes in a “no pressure” approach and will never oversell you.
Barb believes you should make your own decisions on your own timeline. There will never be any follow up or reminder calls unless you request one. Aspen truly believes that if you want to do business, you will call us.
Barb has been given natural empathy and years of training and experience that includes best practices for communication. She tries to learn each loved one’s story — their likes, their interests, & their values — and use that knowledge to customize memorial folders and books.
Her warm gift of hospitality helps to create the perfect gathering or service. These skills also make meaningful connections with the families she touches.
Dani & Tori Lee
Dani and Tori are the friendly voices behind the phone here at Aspen. They love to serve our families by greeting and welcoming them into our business. They also help families plan their services through prearrangements. They use their gifts of hospitality to help everyone feel welcome.
