This has been such a heartbreaking time for our family. Losing our mother has been a hard process…read moreas I'm sure it is for everyone, but it unfortunately was not made any easier with this funeral home. We chose this funeral home while actively grieving, and unfortunately have grown to regret our choice. The issues began almost immediately with our second appointment being late and then cancelled entirely. From the beginning, things have not been done when or as stated. After the scheduling issues, we still signed a contract. I can only blame the fog of grief. On day two, my mother was not picked up when Henry stated she would be, and that took days longer than he stated. My sister and I made it very clear that we were out of state, so unfortunately time was a commodity we had in very short supply. We know things take time, but a week later, she still had not been cremated as requested and couldn't be picked up by the time we left the state, so we'll have to travel back down there to receive her, just adding to the complexity of a process that should have been easy and straight forward. Knowing she cannot be laid to rest in accordance with her wishes bothers me greatly. I just want to give her peace and the respect she deserves. Now we've been waiting over a month for a death certificate to allow us to settle things for her. Henry said he would send them with tracking information the day after we followed up with him yet again, and it has been a week with zero contact. I just want to make anyone aware who is making this choice; that if you are looking for a funeral home that seems to honor the process with the respect it deserves, and not just a business deal, this may not be the funeral home for you. I don't mean to drag the reputation of what seems like a one man operation, but I truly expected more organization, clear communication & most of all for my mother to be honored appropriately in this process.

Cannot say "Thank you" enough to the amazing owner- Henry Middleton. He took care of us from the…read moremoment I made the call, which he answered himself till we laid mom to rest. Henry is a compassionate, gentle, understanding and phenomenal human being. He has a vast experience in the field. He is able to navigate through many obstacles with ease, while still staying composed. Answered all our questions and brought calm. We had an issue with a casket delivery we had initiated on our own. It wasn't going to arrive in time due to snow and bad weather. Henry found a similar casket and had it delivered in time for mom's funeral. His recommendations were spot on and not overpriced. One of them was a police escort from the church to the burial site. Mom had her final journey procession that was made for a Queen! We also had a wonderful heartfelt experience with Nas. He worked closely with us on a program for our mom and was so patient and understanding. The program is beautiful, elegant, represented mom well. I cannot say enough about how Paradise Mortuary turned our profoundly sad experience of loosing our mother into a positive experience of making sure mom's final journey was a wonderful one. She looked peaceful and beautiful as if she was asleep in an elegant silver casket. Henry and Nas always answered our calls personally and took great care of mom and the family, while making sure everything was executed with perfection from beginning to end. Thank you, Henry! Thank you, Nas! You are both angels of God.

I want to give all my thanks to the team at Divine Mortuary & Cremation Services. While going…read morethrough a very difficult time and planning for a very sudden and unexpected death of my mom, Donnie and his team made the stress of planning for a funeral almost none. We had a very difficult request that we asked of the team- which was to have my mom prepared and transported back to our home country (Mexico) as soon as possible. Being that her death was sudden our entire family was in deep pain and mourning and we wanted to get her down to our hometown fast to have her service and burial. We knew this was something that was going to be very expensive and timely. I did some research of several funeral homes for price comparisons and Divine was by far the best option. Not only were they the most affordable, their customer service was impeccable and they worked fast and efficiently. In approximately a week my mom was back in Mexico with her family and her service and burial were exceptional. The team also did an amazing job with her hair, makeup, and dress. Her viewing was exactly what we wanted- something simple yet nice. Her friends and family located here were able to say their goodbye's comfortably. No one wants to go through the stress and pain of planning the death of a loved- especially a mother. However, I couldn't be happier with the Divine team. Definitely recommend for the transportation of a loved one to a different location.

I really don't want to write this review because of the circumstances, but they're a business that…read moreprovided wonderful service to me and my family. The staff at Meadows went above and beyond after I was referred to them. We had a disappointing experience with another funeral home and Meadows stepped in and saw to it that the services were impeccable. We were able to use their beautiful chapel and they handled getting us a musician. They're staff worked with my out-of-town relatives on the funeral program and it was beautiful. Korey, Mrs. Nelson and the rest of the staff were always available if we had any questions and they made sure all the i's were dotted and t's were crossed. You don't really know the cost of a funeral until you have to plan one and it can be really expensive. Meadows offered very reasonable pricing and I know it's probably taboo to discuss, but when you need the services you want to know that you aren't being taken advantage of during such a stressful time. Along with the other reviewer, I'd also highly recommend Meadows Morturary.
