From the moment we walked through the doors of Forbes Funeral Home we were treated with the upmost respect and compassion in the death of our Father. They spent time with us making sure every detail of my Father’s viewing and Celebration of life represented him well. Death is a part of life we all will experience at some point. But having a genuine down to Earth Father/Son team like the Forbes take care of your love one and treat you like part of their family is a gift from God. If your looking for a family who will help navigate you and walk you through one of your darkest times in life, look

I would just like the take a moment to say how much I appreciated the experience that's had with Forbes Funeral Home. It is my prayer that no one has to experience a tragic or unexpected death such as myself but unfortunately some things in life we have no control over. With that being said from the moment I contacted Mr Hawk regarding my mom's passing I experienced a sense of peace that is hard to find when losing a parent unexpectedly. Everything was handled with such a grace that I can't even imagine the type of emotions they must have to deal with on any given occasion but if God made anyone

Both Hawke and Hank we're extremely professional, sympathetic, and extremely pleasant to deal with. I would highly recommend them to any family going through the loss of a loved one. Not knowing much about how the process worked they walked us through it and made it very easy thank you so much for your kind assistance
