UNPROFESSIONAL. RUDE. IRRESPONSIBLE…read more The staff mishandled money given to family and refuse to apologize or take any responsibility. We discovered this when our bank check was cashed by someone other than who the check was written to. The family member didn't even know we had given her a check in the safety box on at the memorial station, because the funeral home never game them to her, but just sent them on to a charity without checking! We were shocked to know that we left the check in their locked box at the wake and trusted it would be given to the family as directed on the envelope, yet the only thing given to family were copies of envelopes, not the contents! We went on to fix this ourselves with the bank and the other party, and did get more money to the family as intended, however we wanted to let the Funeral Home staff know what had occurred. Our bank considered this incident as a form of check fraud, even if accidental, but it's significant, and we addressed it courteously and carefully to ensure all parties involved knew it took place and prevent a possible repeat. We politely contacted the funeral home to notify them this happened so that it didn't happen again to others when money was left similarly in their care, but we received nothing but rude and nasty comments from the funeral home staff, especially no apology, no ownership, but just blame on the other parties. We have emails to document and verify this uncalled for, unprofessional behavior and lack of acknowledgment over a significant mistake. We couldn't believe the response was so harsh and disrespectful from the owner himself! Despite his inappropriateness, we hope the message got across: Money needs to be handled more carefully in their establishment and business. Through this all, we are sadly left with more questions: How many other checks have been mishandled or given to the wrong individuals or organizations? How many cash envelopes haven't made their destinations either? When families are grieving loved ones, and paying large amounts of money for services, these should not be a question at all! Would never use their business as a result of our experience. Would never recommend them to any one else as well.

My mother passed recently after a long stay in a nursing home. The dreaded phone call to begin the…read morearrangements was no hardship. Each person I spoke with (I called multiple times with questions) was naturally welcoming and friendly. I had financial issues and was considering cremation which my mother made me promise I would not do. I had spoken with a funeral home in our hometown about the burial and costs. It was well above the amount of my fortune and was not inclusive of key items (like the casket). I went to discuss the plans at a scheduled meeting with Lindsey Funeral Home and Crematorium. I then met Brandon. He was genuinely interested in my story and recognized my hesitancy to commit to cremation. He made a call and before I knew it had everything figured out and arranged at a price thousands of dollars less than the original questionably high estimate. It was within my budget and included everything! Relief was upon me. I was very touched by his eagerness to help and his efficiency in doing so. His authentic compassion for getting this done affordably renewed my faith in the goodness of businesses who really care. He could see I needed guidance. And he guided. I never dreamed I would be delighted with a funeral home. How does one go through life pleasing and caring for her mom and then betray her wishes at the end. I was so torn already and it had not even been done. Brandon made it possible for my mom to live eternally next to her husband as she wished and I can be free of guilt. Oh, one more thing....the massive building is immaculate and fresh with the perfect amount of local and business memorabilia displayed tastefully and proudly. I never in my life expected to be delighted with a funeral home. Lindsey Funeral Home and Crematorium is whom you must call for legitimate peace following the tragic loss of a loved one.

My father in law passed away from cancer and had chosen cremation for himself as his wish for after…read moredeath. My husband, as next of kin, had to fill out and sign all the papers allowing this. We live in Northern Illinois and my husband was to receive a small amount of ashes in a tiny urn. We were told that being such a distance away, we could have the urn shipped to us. We were told it would HAVE to be sent one day, with insurance, and signature required; my husband paid the price of $125 that he was told it was to ship that way. Not only did the package NOT arrive with one day shipping (as I had waited at home for it to arrive), it wound up arriving in our mailbox; I understand these are issues we are taking up with USPS, but there was NO insurance paid for (shown on packing label), AND the actual shipping price was approximately $100 LESS than what we were charged. After calling to discuss with the manager how wrong it is to mark things up this much at a time when people are experiencing grief, he offered about half of the over billed back. I just find it disgusting practice to over inflate shipping that much, especially when you handled the cremation itself.

We buried my dad and then came back to the funeral home to pick up the flowers and other stuff. One of the funeral home workers came up to my mom and handed her dad's pillow. It was his mother's and wanted to be buried with it!! I stood next to her when she gave them the pillow and told them that he was to be buried with it. How can you screw up something as simple as this?!? I asked mom what she wanted me to do with it and she said, "Bury it with me and I'll give it to daddy when I get next to him." I won't be using Glenn's for mom's burial or my funeral arrangements.

I've had to go to Benton-Glunt funeral home three times in the last 20 years for the services of…read morethree very close family members, all passing away in different circumstances - one completely unexpected, unplanned and tragic in every way. Each time, our family was completely taken care of, from the moment that very sad phone call is made to well after the service when flowers and personal items are brought to the family. The staff ask the right questions, they listen to what you want, and you feel like every staff person is there because they truly want to be, not because they have to be, not because it's just a job. Every phone call is returned, every email is answered, often within seconds, and even on weekends and week nights. They are ready for whatever emotion you are going through at whatever time you experience it. If your loved one has pre-planned his or her funeral, there will be no nickel and diming of expenses - you will get straight answers about what's been paid for, what hasn't, what's been planned, what hasn't, what is included and what isn't - they don't dance around subjects. I will say that the more YOU can put plans for services in writing, the more you can say what it is you want, and the earlier you can get photos and videos to Benton-Glunt, the more they can be there for you for the things you might have forgotten or need last minute (and you WILL forget things). Another thing I've been really impressed with is how they change with the times - they have video and online options for remembrances that were unheard of 20 years ago. If you've seen my other Yelp reviews, you know I'm stingy with stars - but Benton-Glunt deserves the FULL five stars.
