My entire (Gallison) family among others have always used Crosby & Neal since I was a small child and maybe before that. They are very respected, knowledgeable and extremely understanding and I would recommend ALL of their services to anyone.

I am absolutely disgusted with the way this company is run!! my boyfriends father passed away in our home tonight at about 9:30pm and it is now midnight and several calls later and we still have not heard from them!! 2 1/2 hours after his passing and we are now trying to find someone to take him. no family should have to have this happen to them! its hard enough to lose a loved one and then to add insult to injury to have to go through the process of setting up services while he is laying here , which was supposed to have already been taken care of . I will never allow a loved one to be cared for

It was extremely helpful, as no one in the family was familiar with the process. Mike understands that death services are expensive. He itemized every service for us to compare against the funeral home's standard package in order to determine which approach was the most economical. They even took care of ordering the number of death certificates the family would
