Recently had the unfortunate opportunity to make use of the Powers Funeral Home services. I was very pleased with the staff, facilities and services offered by them. They provided above and beyond what I had expected, even going also far as to utilize the owner's personnel laptop to conduct the online streaming when the regular equipment was on the fritz. A full 5 stars from me.

From the very first time I called to advise of the upcoming loss and throughout the process they dealt with me in a calm and supportive, and positive way. On the evening I called to inform them of the loss, the two members of Power's staff came to the house within an hour of the call and were quick but very respectful in their handling of things and treated both the family and the deceased with care and respect. All of the staff at Powers that myself and family interacted with were kind, understanding, and helpful. After I had picked up the Urn I had a follow up question and called them once
