Recently my family and I weathered the loss of my beloved brother Jeremiah. It was an overwhelmingly sad time for our Mother, Jeremiahs three sons, his siblings, and many loved ones and friends.

Al Thomas Funeral Home is exceptional. My family has used Al Thomas throughout the years, and they have always been extremely wonderful. Our mom recently passed, and they helped us throughout this intense emotional time. It was as if we were All Family. We could not be more appreciative for their devotion, sympathy and great work. Thank You to all of you at Al Thomas Funeral Home.
