Thank you, Mr. John Fabry, from the deepest depts of my heart. Our family has used Blair-Lowther Funeral Home for years. Since the last passing of a family member, it has changed hands. It is now owned and operated by a Mr. John Fabry. We were a little worried about this. Not being sure of Mr. Fabrys work or pricing, was a concern. With the recent passing of our brother, the family decided to return to Blair-Lowther Funeral Home, to discuss arrangements with Mr. Fabry. Upon meeting him, he was truly sympathetic and warm. He was genuinely compassionate, caring, friendly and professional. He

As hard as it may be to write a review for something as such these are the reviews that are necessary. We had a very young passing in our family that no one quite knew how to grasp. Mr. Fabry remained professional by simply stating the facts of the what the next few days had in store for us. We knew step by step what to expect and he was with there with us ALL every step of the way. As awful as it is to say the cost of a funeral can sometimes be a very heavy burden. Not with John, he will work with you and help to ease you during this difficult time. With any passing the most difficult part is

Mr. Fabry was wonderful to us. We lost my daughter and when another funeral home told me they couldn't help bc I was out of work and had no money, Mr. Fabry stepped in. He did everything he could to make this hard time as easy as possible. He put together a beautiful service for us and was very understanding and patient. I will forever be grateful to him and his staff for helping me in the unbearably difficult time.

I recently had the pleasure of dealing with John Fabry at this funeral home. He was professional, kind, and open to financial options that other funeral were not. I highly recommend his services

Well, this is such a sad thing to have to be rating a funeral home. However, I would love to thank them, as well as the coroner's office for helping me with the situation. I was stuck, had no knowledge of where to turn. Mr Fabry has been very kind to me and my family and also willing to work with us. Been patient with me and all my questions as I am young and have no idea about what to do and how to do it. Sadly he is in a high demand business and it is becoming more high in demand. So all we can do is be patient with one another which I have had no problem getting from him. And he will get from

This funeral home is under new management and whatever respect and decency it had left with the old owner. The director is a price gouging bully. He tried to charge us nearly double the going rate for a cremation but we knew how much it should cost so we were able to say no and then he changed his price dramatically and acted like he was giving us a really good deal and told us not to tell anybody.
My mother told him she wanted to keep the death private. While she was in his office finalizing the death of her husband, he took a bunch of phone calls (rude) and then took one from a nosey real estate
