"I met Tim Carey many years ago when he came to play his bagpipes at a cemetery that I was working at. Having been in the cemetery industry since the early '80s, I have had heard other pipers before at many services, but when Tim began playing Amazing Grace I soon realized that there was a BIG difference in the quality of this type of musician. During this performance I was working and not mourning so I was able to focus on the music. It was so beautiful and Tim's passion was so evident that it literally brought a tear to my eye and goose bumps to my body. I knew at that time that we needed to connect with him and let other families know that he was available. Since that time, I have had Tim play at dozens of funerals at many of my cemeteries and he participates in all of our holiday services as well. He is truly a Master Piper and I am honored to be able to recommend him to anyone looking to have bagpipes be a part of their burial service."
