I can not explain the exceptional, compassionate and caring of the entire Dangler organization. Losing a loved one is always difficult but one is hit especially hard when it is your spouse. Their knowledge of Jewish tradition and laws with respect to the care of, preparation and guarding of the body was exceptional and left me with a comfortable feeling. While most of us avoid pre-planning for ones final exit from earth, and rely solely on reputation, in the case of Dangler Funeral Home, their reputation is well deserved and I would not hesitate to use them at this time of sorrow

Christine provided kind, and compassionate care to our family when our mom passed away. We can't say enough about the Dangler team and their handling of the arrangements in a professional manner. Christine went above and beyond delivering 2 special Irish poems at the private graveyard service.

Dangler Funeral Home was extremely thorough and handled every detail, highlighting items we would have missed to suggesting how best to handle more obvious items. Their compassion, professionalism and candid input on needs versus nice to haves, pricing and suggestions on current practices was invaluable. The process was seamless and we couldnt have been happier with their services!
