I am so grateful to the staff at Jenkins-Soffe for the wonderful and comforting service they provided at my dads passing. It is obvious that they genuinely cared about us as we experienced this tender time. All the members of the staff are willing to do everything to make sure the needs of the family are met, and the quality of all they do is at the highest level. I would definitely recommend Jenkins-Soffe to anyone who needs their services.

If I could give a zero star rating I absolutely would. The experience my friend recently had to endure with this funeral home is appalling! She lost her husband due to Covid and when she asked for him to be transferred to another funeral home because of the way they handled him, they refused to release his body in order to be paid for a something she never authorized the home to do. Shame on Jenkins-Soffe for their despicable actions. I will tell everyone I come into contact with to never use this mortuary. And as a long time resident of Murray, I hope to have a long time to spread this unfortunate

During the stressful time when a loved one dies, it is so comforting to have a funeral home and directors to ease the burden and the pain. Jenkins-Soffe was incredible as they helped us work through all the myriad details involved with a funeral. It is because of their care and concern for us that the services were everything we hoped for and wanted. Their "after care" service is exceptional. It helped us sort through and process the necessary paperwork that is required. Thank you for all our help and your kindness as we worked through this challenge.

Jordan, Grant, and the whole staff was amazing to my family. They helped my mom and grandma more than I could imagine. The whole staff was professional, courteous, understanding, kind, and considerate. We cant thank them enough for all of their hard work.

We had an incredible experience (as much as you can considering the nature of why). Jordan was our funeral director and he was helpful, compassionate, and patient. We were treated so amazing from our very first meeting, to the after care specialist! They are so personal, and think of every little detail to make burying a loved one so special. We could not have been in better hands while pulling together a service for our mother. Thanks for making this painful time much easier on us. We appreciate the compassion you put into your services!
