Frain Mortuary
When we had problems during construction, it was as easy as picking up the phone and calling Duncan Stuart Todd. We really appreciate their cooperation and assistance.

We opted for a small single station preparation room that is compact and state-of-the-art. It is equipped with the latest technology and meets our requirments perfectly. We are very happy.
One thing we particularly liked about working with Duncan was going through the process. There were situations where we thought we had a solution, but Duncan often helped us find a better way. We were able in our mind’s eye to follow the entire flow pattern from when the family entrusted us with their loved one through to the final trip to the chapel.
The level of care we have provided for our embalmers’ well being says ‘I support you because I respect you.’ Our preparation room is perfect for a perfectionist like me. There is a place for everything and it is so convenient. We protect it and keep it spotless.
[The new construction] is the best thing we ever did. The job was done professionally. We have peace of mind knowing that we have proper ventilation and that we meet compliance codes. Furthermore, our staff is happy working in an efficient and comfortable environment.
It starts with an understanding of the needs of the organization and the ability to communicate with the owner. Duncan Stuart Todd did this very well with the North Sacramento Funeral Home in the designing of our embalming room. We are extremely happy with the outcome.
It is a pleasure to work in a state of the art embalming room. It is with ease that I can move around and be at hand’s reach for most anything needed in the prep room. The air system is a wonderful addition to today’s embalming room with less fumes, strong chemicals and unpleasant odors that I once had to deal with.
In designing my new funeral home, I was very concerned with the planning of the preparation room. I decided it was best to go to the experts who knew OSHA regulations and other requirements for this space. I contacted Duncan Stuart Todd, Ltd. They designed a state-of-the-art preparation suite and dressing suite.
We spent weeks trying to find plumbers, HVAC and construction personnel who could construct our new prep room to meet our needs and all OSHA regulations. The cost soared and there was no assurance that the room would actually meet required specifications. One call to Duncan Stuart Todd led us to a perfect prep room that we knew was built right from the start.
We recently remodeled our preparation room. The DST Morgue Table Receptors have been one of the best investments we have made. They are compact, clean and easy to maintain. We also installed the DST Water Control Units. The design takes up a minimal amount of space on our countertops and provides a clean and professional appearance, while allowing us to operate very efficiently.
