I lost two family members this past year. One of them died unexpectedly at a very young age while the other battled cancer for 2.5 years before leaving us. When my nephew passed away, my family turned to Jeff and the services and support he provided were second to none. Losing someone without any warning who was so young in life, was shocking and beyond tragic. In that moment of chaos, Jeff provided comfort and stability for our family as he orchestrated the most amazing funeral service I have ever seen. He met with us that day and took care of every single detail. When I look back on those few days in Jeff's care, I remember his attention to detail, utmost professionalism, and feeling like he became part of our family in the process. He helped us honor our fallen one and from my perspective, the funeral services he provided helped me and continues to help me deal with the loss. Most recently, we lost a member of our family to cancer and I was tasked with making the funeral arrangements. I turned to Jeff who carried out our loved ones small, intimate, funeral wishes to perfection. Throughout the process, Jeff kept our budget in mind, was in constant contact with me, and provided a beautiful service. On both occasions, my family and friends kept saying how wonderful the funeral service was while our family walked away knowing that we remembered and honored our loved ones lives to the utmost level. It is never easy to lose someone you love and I can't imagine anyone being able to remember and honor the life of a loved one more professionally and elegantly than Jeff Monreal Funeral Home. read more
