I would give a negative rating if possible. Perhaps one of the most incompetent "professional…read moreservices " companies I've ever dealt with. Arrived at cemetery for a graveside service and grave was full of water from overnight rain and vault sitting along drive. No effort to pump grave out and place vault prior to family arriving. That's just a start. Every aspect of dealing with them was frustrating and fraught with errors. Do yourself and family a favor and use a service that understands professional standards and the emotions a family faces at this time of grief and try's to ease the grief not add to it.

My family and I have dealt with Lewis funeral home since they opened. Joel Lewis has always been…read moreprofessional and caring. He has always been willing to listen and accommodate any way he could to help our family in planning the funerals for our loved ones. From my grandmother and several uncles to my dad, who incidentally he shut down his chapel for a week to use that room as my dad's viewing room because of the overwhelming number of people that would be coming to pay their respects, and most recently to my wife's funeral where we had picked out the casket we wanted but they did not have it in the colors we wanted that would represent our children's School colors. We did not ask but Joel called the casket company and had one rushed over in those exact colors and it was actually an upgraded casket and did not charge us extra and surprised us with it upon our first viewing. He is always been willing to go over and above and beyond in our time of need and pain. I honestly cannot say enough nice things about how I admire and respect Lewis funeral home. My family has used Lewis funeral home over the past 30 years with several family members and I, nor any of my family members, have ever had anything negative to say about Joel Lewis and his funeral home.
