It may seem odd to review a funeral home but I can't say enough about TJ,Korinne and the entire staff. Korinne was exceptionally kind and attentive. She made herself available for any questions and always followed up quickly. TJ made sure everything was to our satisfaction during the entire process. He treated our family with so much respect. This is a difficult time for any family but by the end it felt like it they were a part of our family.

T.J, Korinne, and the rest of the staff are outstanding. They are very straight forward with the process and sensitive to your needs through out your hardship. I have dealt with them on 2 occasions and their services did not disappoint. Their communication, flexibility, and empathy are top notch.
