I could do what Patterson does.

If I could give this funeral home zero stars, I would. The main person we ve talked to, Kathy, is…read moreone of the most uncaring people we have ever dealt with. You would think since this is a funeral home and they are dealing with customers who have lost loved ones, they would be helpful and understanding...but they are not. It has been over a year since my grandfather has died in May 2011 and we have not received a grave marker. The grave marker is supposed to be for both of my grandparents. When my grandpa passed away, we put my grandmother's ashes with him so they could be buried together, the way they wanted. We paid for it in full back in September of 2011, and now it s June of 2012 and we have nothing. When we call to find out when it will be done, they have no answers and are extremely unhelpful. She yelled at my aunt on the phone, so I called to speak to her calmly, Kathy was getting very hot on the phone with me as well. They said there is a company that does the grave markers for them, but they will not provide us with the company's name so we can contact them directly. I would not recommend this funeral home to anyone. We are on the verge of contacting our bank or an attorney about fraud since we ve paid for something we haven t received. No one wants to be out a few thousand dollars and not have any idea when they will receive what they paid for. This is a horrible funeral home!!!

Carey Richardson was really helpful, communicating well via both phone (promptly calling me back) and by email (sending me services, prices, maps of the cemetery with the locations of various options). Then, when we met, she was well prepared and efficient. We finished all the paperwork in under an hour, including looking together at the site. I was thrilled (and could hop in my car and head out). Later, when I arrived home, she emailed a scanned version of the documents at my request. Many thanks to Carey and Clarendon Hills Cemetery!

I had visited the location a couple days before my mom passed and they were very respectful and took down all of our information so that after my mom passed they were able to just come in take her body to the home. They also were able to get all of our official documentation information filled out at that moment as well. We had the basic cremation package which allowed us a 30 minute viewing. The space was clean and allowed us some private time with my mom before she was cremated. Receiving her remains and death certificate was also very efficient. We received both a couple business days after the viewing. Thank you for making a difficult life event pain free and simple. That was very important for us as we grieved.

Even when they arrived to pickup my mom from my home they were caring, careful explained the process, walked the best path for exit and did not rush even though it was pouring rain outside. I was immediately impressed even through my grief. They followed up with me as stated, scheduled a meeting time to discuss plans. They were upfront about pricing, no gimmicks or salesman pitch. All of my questions were answered, no request is too weird because they've heard it all. I actually learned a lot about the cremation process and county requirements. I'm so happy they were recommended to me and I tell everyone about them and my family will definitely utilize their services in the future if/when needed.
