I was very satisfied and happy with the service they provided for my moms cremation, service and burial. I was working with them from my hometown in Southern Illinois and felt like they were always available to answer my questions and help with with what I needed. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. Very professional and compassionate.

They were not very kind to me over my moms passing. When I got there they treated me as I was nothing. Just another person to make money off of. They were NOT very sympathetic for my loss. My own family and the funeral home they
talked about was Toys for Tots, what their plans were for Christmas and showing of pictures on their phone and FB. Laughing about what they show in the pictures. I never felt so alone. They never contacted when they were going to the process for her ashes. They never contacted me when my Mothers ashes was ready. I was in and out other there so fast. It was like

Trimble Funeral Home helped me through one of the most difficult events of my life. They were extremely professional, upfront, and courteous when it came to burying my mother. They worked with a funeral home out of state to have my mother transported for her final burial. They took care of the process and coordination with the VA and the National Cemetery. I couldn't be more grateful for the care and grace they exhibited during the whole thing. The amount of stress taken off my shoulders from their excellent services and guidance is immeasurable. I highly recommend them, 5/5

Everyone at Trimble was incredibly helpful in my family's time of mourning for our grandmother. Her passing came as a shock, and even during COVID, Trimble made all the arrangements so much easier for my family. Their establishment is absolutely beautiful, my family could not have wished for a nicer place for us to all say good bye and lay my grandmother to rest. Thank you Trimble for your guidance, and graciousness that you gave to my family.
