We called Newcomer and we were able to get an appointment with funeral director, Abigail, the next day. The meeting was straightforward and thankfully free of a hard sales pitch. We explained to Abigail what we wanted and she helpfully directed us. Our son's visitation and funeral service were exactly what we wanted. The funeral home staff were very kind and attentive. They frequently approached our immediate family and asked if there was anything they could do to help and repeatedly offered us water. Their kindness and care touched all of us.

Unethical and Unprofessional conduct…read more They know how to LIE to customers. The Funeral Director, Jerica Pernell, of Newcomer Funeral Services turned over information to the St Charles County Medical Examiner office about my wife's condition before burial even though the Funeral Director told me a week earlier that the Death Certificate would be signed by her doctors.  A week later the Funeral Director told me that the Death Certificate would be signed by the St Charles County Medical Examiner which struck me as very strange. Why would she lie to me?  I ask how long it would take and was told that it would take 10 to 12 weeks. Evidently the funeral service saw that my wife had fallen and had a broken hip 4 to 5 months before her death.  The Funeral Director thinks that something might be amiss about my wife's death so she turned over the case to the St Charles County Medical Examiner Office AND NEVER TOLD ME. You cannot trust this business. Be very careful.

Baue has been the funeral home of choice for my family for decades. They have always done a great…read morejob from start to finish. Most recently as soon as we learned of my great- aunt's passing, I went up to the home to get boards to make her memorial photo boards and they were ready immediately. This Cave Springs location is beautiful and is fully staffed to direct visitors to the correct room. There is also ample space for refreshments in a place where family can go to decompress and children can feel more comfortable away from the main viewing room. Today we were there to attend the wake of a neighbor. Not only does my family trust Baue, but most of my friends and acquaintances also choose them as well. Sadly, I have been here more times than I can count in addition to their location on Kings Highway in Saint Charles. Can it be expensive? Yes, but you get what you pay for. I highly recommend.

From the beginning of my dad dying in his living room unexpectedly to the end Baue was a nightmare…read more They couldn't come for 3 hours to get my dad. And my dad was a normal size man. 6'3 and 200 lbs, they come 3 hours later while we have to see my dad just lie there dead and sent two ladies under 5'5 who weight nothing. They had to get the police to help, who were grown me . Then their EV van breaks down in my driveway, where my dead father sits. They call us later and arrange times for us to meet and tell me we will meet with Jennifer. We come and it's a man named Andrew who did everything he could to make us spend a ton of money even though I told him what my dad told us he wanted. Andrew had us sit there for hours waiting on him to make all these statements of different ways to get more money from us. We never met Jennifer. We ordered two death certificates, we had to pay for them and we were told we would get them when the doctor signed off. They sent one to the I srua ne company without telling us, asking us or even allowing us to make a copy and send it. The life insurance paperwork stated a copy would suffice but Baue took it upon their selves to sent it. When they finally cremated my dad 3 weeks later because they claimed the doctor didn't sign off, they refuse to tell me when we could get their ashes. They had me driving from one building to another ad. Gave us an assistant. This little assistant lady kept telling us she was not comfortable telling us when we could get their ashes and they will call me when they can. I had to give my name 43 times and number because they couldn't tell me anything ever. That's all I was ever told. And they gave me emails that were wrong when I was sick as hell, they made this whole process horrid. And after I got my father's ashes they sent me a coupon for 600 off for someone in my family if we plan in 6 months how disgusting is this place. And the coupon only works if we choose to have the ceremony there.
