I'm a strong believer that everything happens for a reason. I believe Neal and Shane were meant to…read morebe here for me with the very unexpected loss of my mom on 11/2. I've never met more caring people who would go out of their way and stay late at work for a complete stranger. I was able to get that one last goodbye with my mom. I wasn't going to ask to see her but something told me that I needed to and I'm so glad I did. A little weight was lifted from my heart after getting to see her; she looked so peaceful and finally at rest. I'm so glad Neal and Shane were able to give that to me. They both went above and beyond with their love and compassion for my mom, as well as being able to show me love and compassion in my darkest hours. It's a treasure to meet people like them and I'll forever cherish both of them! I cannot thank them enough!

In the days that followed, we returned to finalize the arrangements and had the privilege of being assisted by Charian, Matthew, and Alex. Each of them was kind, patient, supportive, and incredibly thoughtful throughout this painful process. I asked Charian if it would be possible for us to visit my mother in law one more time before returning to California, and she went above and beyond to make that happen. Most importantly, my mother in law was treated with respect, kindness, and dignity, which meant everything to our family. Honoring her wishes, she will be cremated, and Charian is coordinating the arrangements for her to be delivered to us in California. Matthew went out of his way to console my husband and offered him words of comfort and strength during an incredibly difficult time. Alex was also attentive and professional, ensuring that every detail was handled smoothly and respectfully. In addition to the exceptional care we received, the pricing was very reasonable and transparent, which brought us peace of mind during such an overwhelming time. Our experience was nothing short of excellent. I highly recommend Memorial Park Funeral to anyone facing a difficult situation, especially when your highest priority is ensuring your loved one is treated with the respect and care they deserve. Thank you, Memorial Park Funeral, for your compassion and support during this challenging time.

I had an inquiry I sent by letter and they replied right away. Very, very helpful.read more

It's taken me a year to write this review as I was too upset at the time to say anything. While my…read morepaternal family has used this home for many of our family services, I would STRONGLY advise against it. Two instances occurred that left me flabbergasted and disgusted: the utter disregard for my father's final wishes and the lack of attention the funeral home ushers placed on recognizing immediate family. Issue 1 occurred when meeting with the owner of the home and explaining that my father wished to be cremated. He went into gruesome detail on what cremation includes. He used the guise of "I have to tell you all this because it's the law" but I have yet to uncover such a regulation. He only apologized when I left the room and refused to continue the discussions until he changed the subject matter. Issue 2 actually happened at the funeral for my father. After everyone had left the chapel and were congregating outside, I went to the family room to grab some water and collect myself. One of the ushers had the nerve to push me into going to say my "final farewells" and informed me of the placement of MY OWN FATHER'S head in the casket. You know, the same casket I had been standing near for hours that day as families tend to great mourners. I was APPALLED that the usher didn't even bother to recognize the deceased daughter and felt the need to push someone to do something that they had actually politely declined. This was by far the WORST experience I've had with a funeral home. "Calloused" and "disrespectful" do Barlow's more justice then they actually deserve. If a caring and warm experience is what you anticipate when laying to rest your beloved family member or friend, then I strongly advise you take your business elsewhere.

I only gave 1, so they would be flagged. My Aunt purchased her policy years ago when this was a decent place, so they made no money for her service(ha), Tuesday, April 20, 2021. She passed away Monday, April 12th. Her body was taken to that horrible place, that night. I thought they would contact me, they had all my information. About 11am, Tuesday I started calling them, we left message after message, I did not talk to anyone until Thursday and we set a meeting for the next day. I thought we were set, I thought that's why we had a meeting to plan a service(ha). We got there early for viewing, to see her casket. SHE WAS NOT THERE. Her body was in Millington, TN at another home, about 30min away, they had to go get her!!! Family and friends were arriving before they returned with our Aunt. We had no pictures(couldn't get the video player to work), no sign in book, no program hand outs, the music we requested was not prepared and they asked me 11min before the service, what songs did we want, they were googling on their phones to find our list. We gave ALL our request at our meeting 5 days prior! At the end, I asked for a hand out, to put in remembrance book, they had not printed them!!! The 2 inexperienced employees, that conducted the service, worked as hard as they could with what they had. Helen Ponder, the director we met with, was NO WHERE TO BE FOUND! She was at the funeral home in Millington, meeting with a family. I'll bet all I've got, this family was paying $$ out of pocket. I respect that families must have meetings to plan for their loved ones, i believe theirs should have been at a different hour, Ms Ponder should have been at our service- she forgot. I asked for the director, Josh- somebody, to please call me with an explanation or perhaps an apology, today is May 19, a month later, no word to this day. The ONLY thing Helen Ponder did for her, was get the Military Honor service, she served in the Army. This was amazing, I'm very grateful to the Soldiers that honored her. No one deserves to be neglected and forgotten about, this place is horrible and should be shut down. Helen Ponder and Josh ?? the director should be held accountable. My Aunt deserved better.
