Paws Finding Peace needs your support – by Friday June 11
​
We have been in the process of purchasing a commercial property to call home for many long months. We have found a great building in Springfield to open our Pet Funeral Home. Not only will this be a place for families to honor their beloved pets and pick up ashes, it will also house a water-based cremation facility. Most people are only familiar with flame-based cremation (which is not very environmentally friendly). We are planning on opening up an aquamation (alkaline-hydrolysis) crematorium so that your beloved pets never have to leave our care. Aquamation is often referred to as a “green” option as it is uses very little natural resources and has little to no environmental impact.

Dear Springfield City Council,

I would like to offer my support to Paws Finding Peace and Dr. Lauren Atkins' plan to open a Pet Funeral Home on Hancock Street in Springfield.

I believe this service would be of benefit to our community and would offer pet parents additional support during a time of need and grief.
