When my stepfather died in December 2024, John Anderson Jr. (Funeral Director) told my mother she would have to pay an additional $800.00 for a variety of items she did not request (Including a new body bag he stated was legally mandated, which is false.) When I and other family members met with him to ask for an explanation as to why there were more charges on a prepaid plan, he was defensive, evasive, profoundly unsympathetic and unprofessional. He insisted that the business is his mother's, and that he knew nothing about the prepaid agreements. He was unable and/or unwilling to pull any files he should have had from the prepaid arrangement. He never answered any of our questions, claimed he was being attacked, and professed to hating his job. He told my mother he would drop the charges to $200, and asked if "that would make her happy?", as if we were negotiating a bar tab. Upon examination, we realized that the original documents for my parents were not even actual contracts, and that most likely none were ever created. The grief we were experiencing was compounded by the unfeeling and sarcastic attitude of Mr. Anderson, and the knowledge that the remains of our loved one was in the hands of someone who was untruthful and totally disgruntled about his occupation and having to perform it. Anderson Funeral Service failed to provide an actual contract and attempted to extract money for services that were included in the prepaid agreement. I am extremely concerned that the unethical, if not illegal, actions of Anderson Funeral Service will continue to be perpetrated on other vulnerable families.
