Their thieves, I was suppose to get some of my brothers ashes, was told to bring a Urn which I did what I got was a tiny Urn with just a portion of my brother's ashes for my Mom, I paid 100. For a package that only cost 8. 54 to send to me everything I called I got the run around ,then I thought it was settled and that 75. Would be returned to me I have not seen a check thats supposed to be mailed to me. So yea their thieves. They don't deserve a star.

My son was cremated last year they gave me the run-round over and over regarding his cremation. It took almost 2 months for me to receive my son. My ex-husband had to go up there he was very angry they didn't want him to return back so they called me, I was to hurt to even be upset i just wanted my son i started to open the box just to make sure but my family told me not to so i really don't even know if anything is even in the case. :-( Sometimes i just sit an look at the case wondering.

My mother died 2-16-21. We paid for a cremation on 2-18-21. A month later, my mother still has not been cremated. All they can offer are excuses. My cousins body wasn't ready for the wake. They have terrible service and show no empathy or compassion. They keep giving us the run around about why it hasn't been done. The person in charge of cremations told us they were cremating her on 3-13-21 so we got our minds together to prepare for it, but we never got the call that it had been done, nor did we get an apology for it not being done. It's been an emotional rollercoaster dealing with this company

This place has completely traumatized me. I can’t even grieve the loss of my father because of them. Never have I ever experienced the amount disrespect and lack of empathy this company has displayed. Every single thing that could have gone wrong went wrong. There was no director on the day of my fathers service, the pastor had to use his phone to play music, they messed up the programs even after numerous emails, texts and phone calls. They had the wrong date that my father passed on listed on the programs and dvd, I never received plants that were sent to our family nor were they put out at

I am very disappointed with this funeral home. We recently had my grandfathers service here and they made our farewells harder than what they already were. From everything being done completely wrong and unprofessionally to zero communication. Please stay away from this place if you want to be able to properly grieve your loved one
