Sig and wife DO NOT wear masks in the office. They say THEY'VE already received both vaccines. SO....why was it that you and your wife were eating lunch in the office without masks? I came to pick up my moms remains and you both were without masks eating but scurried to put them on when I entered. Truth is the best way to deal with this. Now you're saying that you both had Covid. Hmmm???

I planned a funeral for my mom with Sig. I can't say enough good things about Sig. Sig is absolutely wonderful. I think there are some other funeral places in town who might be cheaper but it isn't worth going somewhere else with how great he is a family owned local business. They are completely on top of everything at his office and help in anyway they can. If you need somewhere PLEASE consider Sig first. You will not be disappointed.

I am so thankful for there wonderful help and service. They never attempted to up sell me any services I didn't need. These folks were there for me every step of the way making my sudden family tragedy much more bearable. Thank you Sigs!

There is no better funeral service than Sig's. Everything from preplanning through the final burial, paperwork & information on what I needed to do with veterans benefits, Social Security & beyond. I highly recommend them....the whole team.
