God truly moved at Legacy Launch! Looking back on the event, I’m overwhelmed by gratitude for every person he placed to pray, intercede, and stand with us. Thank you to everyone who brought their heart and presence into that space—it wouldn’t have been the same without you.

It’s a hard conversation, but a necessary one.
Last week, Agape Waters Funeral and Cremation Services partnered with Westside Health Authority and The Good Neighbor Campaign to bring the community an essential resource on estate and end-of-life planning.

The truth is, most families are caught completely unprepared when tragedy strikes. Getting your affairs in order is the greatest gift of love you can give your family. Thank you to everyone involved for bringing this vital information to the neighborhood!♥️

On behalf of Agape Funeral Service and our family, we want to offer our deepest condolences to the Leak Family. 🕊️

I feel so honored to have worked with The Leaks Funeral Home for many years before starting our own, and I will always appreciate the trust you had in me.

Thank you for always supporting my scholars in the Mortuary Science Program at Malcolm X College, providing endless training and internship opportunities, and coming to speak to my classes.

Our industry has truly lost a pillar of the community. We will continue to support your incredible legacy however we can. I am so grateful for our friendship, our collaborations, and the tenacity you always showed. Forever in our hearts.
