Francis Collins Funeral Home handled my husband's funeral. All the staff, especially Terry, were professional, kind, and understanding. We did a quick funeral, actually 2 days after he passed and they had everything together. The web site was up almost immediately. All questions we had were also handled immediately. I have absolutely nothing negative to say about them and I would highly recommend them.

Extremely professional and most importantly, empathetic and attentive to my family's needs. We worked with Rick, who had the best customer service. He seemed to actually care about the loss of our father and made the planning process very simple--exactly what we needed during this difficult time. He was very attentive to our family's needs and was extremely supportive during the entire process. Definitely recommend.
