My daughter was going on a cruise and didn't know she needed her birth certificate. She was in Florida and they told her her mother could get it for her in Foster. Carol and Jane were so great that got it printed and sent otherwise she wouldn't be able to go on her trip to the Carribian. They were so very helpful.
