Pat really went above and beyond when our mom passed away last September and he explained everything in great detail and gave my sisters and I a shoulder to lean on and ears to listen to each of us especially my youngest sister Carla Volner. Thank you Pat for taking care of our Mom and doing a wonderful job with her as well when these times aren't the easiest on anyone. There aren't enough stars to give you a higher rating, but I would give you and your staff a 10+ a perfect 10!!

They have done a wonderful job with my mother. Pat really listened when we talked about her, and included things in the obituary that we had said and not written down. I got the sense from talking with him that he is actually interested in memorializing the deceased, it's not just a "job". They were very professional and compassionate. The obituary was beautiful, and the cremation was hassle free and very well handled. There were some wonderful personal touches, such as leaving a rose when they came for her body, and saving a lock of her hair for us. My best friend also used them for her mother

Great people that work there that also makes you feel like family. They also working around the clock to do their jobs and does everything thing they can to bring families comfort after a loved one passes away. They remember your name no matter how long it has been since a person's loved one passed. That is why I would recommend them.
