Their offices feel like you're stepping into a 1950's time machine, but the kindness and caring ways of each person I dealt with left me feeling supported as I was laying my mother to rest.

Most of our family had moved from Ukiah but after careful consideration we decided Dale should return to Ukiah for his final resting place. From the moment we walked in Donna and Ed treated us very well. Ed took the time to fully understand what we were looking for and showed us a number of possibilities and price ranges. Donna placed Dale in his niche then helped with some pics of family. All and all it was a very celebratory day and Eversole helped to make that happen.

I have had about four experiences with funeral homes and services, and my recent experience with…read moreChapel of the Lakes was less than professional and careless. They were in such a hurry to file the death certificate with the state that they did not let me review it; I found a significant misspelling/typo on a simple name and they had to file a second page addendum and I have a botched certificate requiring two pages. In addition, when they contacted me to make arrangements to pick up my husband's remains, they referred to him as my "father" and when I corrected them they said "sorry, I didn't look at the file first." This was offensive and showed a lack of compassion.

The director was fresh out the proverbial womb. Spoke to my mom, brother and I in a very…read moreunprofessional manner. We requested Thumbies of my father, and I trusted that he would put it in the order. We've never done this before, we expected to have our hands held and absolutely babied throught the process because we are grieving. We are sad, angry, frustrated, and tired with just the fact my dad is dead, but to have THE Robert Bracewell tell my mom that the file for his thumbprint was corrupt and couldn't get the Thumbie for another couple weeks is downright abhorrent. It was the director first, but to have the owner double down on a blatant lie was too much. It was never on the receipt. The director did not put it on the order list, did not double or triple check DESPITE HEARING ALL THREE OF US SAY WE WANTED IT. I watched him write it down. Then he comes in with a fucking portable card reader and STANDS in front of my mom with it in her face, and said "your total will be XXX.XX today." That was my last lifeline to feel like my dad wasn't completely gone and I was lied to. Lies, liars, and cut corners. You should be fucking ashamed of yourselves for how you run this business. You will never EVER touch one of my family members again.
