Someone you love has died. You are now faced with the difficult, but important, need to mourn. Mourning is the open expression of your thoughts and feelings regarding the death and the person who died. It is an essential part of healing. The following articles provide many practical suggestions to help you move toward healing in your unique grief journey.
Most of us are not prepared to plan and carry out a funeral ceremony for someone we love. And so much of the information available on this critically important subject fails to focus on what is most important: having a personalized, meaningful funeral that helps families and friends begin the healing process of mourning after the death of someone we love.
Most of us plan ahead in life. We plan for our wedding, our children's education, family vacations, and other significant expected life events. We also plan for the unexpected events of life by purchasing home, auto and medical insurance. Understanding the benefits of pre-planning has prompted many to take the step to plan their own arrangements.

You never want to have to recommended a funeral home to someone as that means that a family is hurting. However when I do need too without a doubt I say Brookside. At Brookside they treat you like family as soon as you walk through that door and will help you during the most difficult time in your life as if you were family. Jamin and Kara are about treating you and your family member with the utmost respect and care and are not about dollar or the fancy corporate name on the door. Both of them and all their staff truly wants what is best for your family. We used them when my dad passed away and

The workers here don't know how to use basic programs provided by Microsoft. (which ruined my personal experience nobody else's) They did not know the difference between the mini player and full screen button. Then, when the video was playing, they did not know how to turn up the volume. Once someone complained about the video having no sound, they decided to blast the speakers almost blowing them. The video lost a lot of pathos when we had to watch it a second time. The inability to use simple technology insults the dead and the living. That being said, this wasn't a horrid service it just wasn

Jamin Is exceptional and goes above and beyond in his work. In a time when one doesn’t really know what direction to take, Jamin and his team were there to help us with the process and even travelled to bring my brother back home.
Jamin made sure we were always up to date on everything and always made sure we were ok with the whole funeral process before proceeding with something.
Brookside is also a wonderful facility and I appreciate Jamin taking the time to take care of our loved one.
He will always be in my family’s prayers, and if you ever need someone to take care of your loved one

The customer service they provide is unparalleled. They truly understand that you are overwhelmed and don't know what to do when a loved one passes away. They literally can handle everything and are so friendly and professional at the same time. There's no pressure to buy additional services, everything is fair, they are just purely about service and making things as easy as possible on the family. Highly recommend.
