    Selecting a funeral home is something we never like to think about until the time is facing us…read more Should that happen and you are put in the path of selecting a funeral home for your loved one, I'd recommend Conkle on 16th Street. They also offer Pre-Planning packages to avoid putting your loved ones through this experience. They are compassionate, kind, respectful of your loved ones, and they gently walk you through the selection process. They realize you're numb from grief and no one is ever ready for this process in our lives. Conkle's interior remains as it has been for years but is clean, well maintained and cared for even though the drapes are certainly out of style. I know! Who's looking at the drapes at a time like this? The chapels are large and can be increased or decreased as necessary. They try to accommodate every person's budget and are helpful even after the service when you need death certificates or have questions. One additional thought is many restaurants are located within walking distance of Conkles in Speedway for those who spend hours supporting the family. This was brought to my attention and much appreciated for those assisting the family and friends.

    We have had the need to funeralize both parents, most recently in November. Both services were at…read morethe location in Speedway. Conkle has been gracious, patient, informative and professional without pushing additional services or options. They allowed us space and time while guiding us through the necessary steps. Their staff was prompt and respectful when they came for Dad's body and they worked swiftly without rushing to provide that service. Les helped us through each step of planning the services and has continued to assist us with things like applying for a DD-214 to verify military service and securing additional death certificates. We have felt listened to, respected and valued. Recommendations are suggestions, highly personal, and I highly recommend Conkle.

    Families deserve dignity -- not trauma…read more I personally paid almost $8,000 to GH Herrmann Funeral Home to handle my father's remains. After they took custody of him, they failed to properly preserve him. He was left unrefrigerated for days, and his body visibly decomposed. The smell will never leave my memory. Under Indiana law (IC § 23-14-31-37), if immediate cremation is not possible, funeral homes must place remains in a proper holding facility that preserves health and safety. That did not happen here. Although my siblings & I declined embalming, we were never informed that this funeral home had no refrigeration, & that our father's body would be left unrefrigerated to decompose. Had we been given that information, we most certainly would have made different arrangements. When I raised concerns, I received an extremely unprofessional and abusive call from Jeff Herrmann, the co-owner of the funeral home. During the call -- which I lawfully recorded -- he said to me, "the fucking motorcycle accident turned him into a slushie, not us." Additionally, although my family arranged for my father -- a veteran -- to receive full military honors, at the funeral GH Herrmann Funeral Home told us they "didn't have time" to allow the full Honor Guard ceremony to take place. This final disrespect toward my father, who served his country, was devastating to our family. The full audio recording of my conversation with Jeff Herrmann is available upon request.

    Very disappointed by the ground level plaques they are using. The gold lettering is coming off…read more This is not just our family plot but also all those around the area. In the next few years you will find it difficult to read. This needs to be addressed. The mowing is maintained but not any weed cutting around the plaque. Trash was overflowing.

    My father chose this cemetery for his final resting place. My initial thoughts upon my first visit…read moreto Oaklawn were that much of it looked unkempt, but I have given them leeway on that for now considering it was Winter. Hopefully, the grounds will appear better once the weather improves. I do have to say that while some areas looked a mess, the Orthodox section was well-maintained for the most part. It is a beautiful spot complete with painted icons near the woods and a creek. I can see why my dad wanted to be placed here. The staff seemed to be kind and professional during the selection of the plot. I was disappointed that the downpours of rain on the morning of my father's funeral kept us from gathering at the burial site, but we were given use of the chapel indoors for the final rites said over him. The men working the grounds that day were polite and let us keep watch as they placed my father into his vault and then into the ground. It was quite muddy so I am sure it was not an easy task. Oddly, as we entered the cemetery in our funeral procession, there was a vault right in the middle of one of the lanes headed toward the chapel. It was a strange sight none of us had witnessed before. Again, slack is being given on that considering the elements that day as well as being told by a friend that once worked at a cemetery that it happens once in a while. I am a bit nervous because of some of my observations combined with the other reviews and photos here. I will be making more treks to the cemetery for sure so I will be back to update my review as necessary.
