First off I want to thank Gary, Kelli, Gabby and Carol for their outstanding compassion, planning, communication and assistance during this difficult time for me. They picked up my Dad from the hospital immediately after his passing and somehow I felt comfort in that.. They did an outstanding job sitting up all of the decorations and many memories that we dropped off for the visitation and funeral... They also went above and beyond planning the Full Military rights at the Cemetery to say the least I was brought to tears by this... my Dad so would have loved all of this! All in All I was greatly

Gary, Kelli and Gabby assisted us from the very beginning and helped make it as simple as possible, especially after my sister and I came in from out of state. Kelli worked with us streamlining our fathers pictures and videos and really came through nicely. This is the third time we used their services. We were very pleased with everything and would highly recommend them with your loved one.

We were so grateful for the respect that was shown to me, my husband and my Mom upon her passing. We were given all the time we needed to say our final good-byes and that meant the world to us.
When we met with Gary to finalize the arrangements, we were given time to make the decisions needed without feeling rushed, even though Gary had a full schedule that day.
Our family couldn't have asked for a nicer service and we are very thankful to Gary and his staff.

As a minister, I’ve personally conducted hundreds of funerals across the Midwest. I’ve worked with Gary and his team for family funerals, military funerals and church funerals. I’ve always found him to be caring, kind and absolutely professional!
Last week, it was my turn to be on the other side of the fence for a funeral. My mom passed away and we had her services at Gary Deiters Funeral Home. Everything that you’ve read in these previous reviews was our experience as well. We felt like we had a friend walk us through the process. Mom had been quite ill for 2+ years and so she had lost

Gary and Kelly are two amazing people. We had a miscarriage after 10 weeks of pregnancy and we were looking for cremation services for our baby. They gave us afforable prices compared to other funeral homes. And they really took care of us. They processed all the documents needed and called our doctors/hospital to get everything set for the cremation. We're very thankful for all their effort to make this happen and we recommend their services.

Gary and Ellen were beyond great and helpful when my mother passed. Their staff was quick to pick up her body, and extremely nice and compassionate when doing so. During the planning Gary was very thorough. When I asked about making a poster board of pictures, Gary gave me a poster board and stickers to use. Ellen did a wonderful job with the video tribute. She also was at the grave side, and was beyond helpful there. They both made sure Mom's funeral was everything we needed and wanted. I chose them because they did a wonderful job with my grandfather's funeral, and I am beyond grateful for the
