I needed to have my parents ashes separated so me and my siblings could each have some. I called…read morethem on my way out of town and ask if they could separate them (and I asked them ship them to me). The very pleasant woman on the other side said "come on by." On the way to the airport, I stopped at the funeral home. She asked if they had done my parents' funerals. I was a bit embarrassed and said "no, but they lived around the corner." After explaining what I wanted, she quickly separated the ashes into three containers and brought them back to me. I asked her what was the charge. She said "No charge. Happy to do it." I was blown away. I'm not exactly sure what I was expecting (a few $100 dollars maybe) but I wasn't expecting it for free. And that was it. I am so grateful to the kind people at Kish and if I sadly had another service to plan in the area, I would absolutely use them.

My loved one has been entombed and her memorial plaque installed on her crypt, I can tell you with…read moreall my heart, I would never recommend Kish Funeral Home to anyone ever again. I waited until every detail was complete to safely speak my mind. I strongly felt my trust was violated. Comments were made to me during the meeting that were unwarranted and left me confused as to why they were even said to me while making funeral arrangements. My one brief encounter with the owner of the funeral home was when he came in the room as we were placing flowers around the casket and I said everything looks good. The owner of Kish Funeral Home exclaimed "this isn't our first time at the rodeo." I found this to be a very insensitive and crass comment to make in light of the loss and grief we were feeling. No signs of empathy or a genuine handshake from a business man who owns a prominent funeral home in town. I was told that our funeral was the worst they have had in the 10 years they were in business. I was shocked that this was stated to me because I did not encounter any incident or cause any problems for the funeral home or their representatives, but when I questioned the remark 3 times, they refused to answer or apologize. During this very sensitive time, I found this comment insulting and injurious to my good character. Funeral homes should never advocate for familial unity when there was none prior to the passing of the decedent. Funeral homes shouldn't pass judgement, exhibit favoritism or discriminate based on status or title even though the deceased resided in the Cobblestones. Mourners certainly will take note of bossy and rude representatives of Kish Funeral Home during the wake and tell me later how they felt. Once your funeral is a sure thing, their next goal is securing the next wake. You can get everything right but if you violate a family's trust by overstepping your place and bounds, you lose everything. Trust is everything to a family when selecting a funeral home. Unfortunately, it is not easy to grab your deceased loved one and walk out the front door once arrangements have been made. Kish Funeral Home lost on all counts.

Rev. Jenkins is amazing. Spencer is very communicative. We were told the day before our father's…read moreservice that insurance was not covering the cost so we needed to pay out of pocket. That last-minute communication was unfortunate. The woman working with us to collect payment kept referring to "the machine" that was telling her the amount due. The numbers were not adding up. There was a small amount of a difference, less than $5, between what we were told and what she was asking for. It wasn't a big deal, but it was disheartening that there was not an explanation for this difference regardless of the amount. Their facilities are beautiful and they are professional in their approach. I would like to see the business move to update their payment system to avoid the challenges we experienced.

I traveled from out of state to Illinois to plan my father's memorial service with this funeral…read morehome. During the planning process, I worked with Josh, who was professional, compassionate, and extremely helpful. I am grateful for his care. Unfortunately, the conduct of the owner, John Maher, during the service was highly inappropriate and unprofessional. While I was delivering the eulogy, Mr. Maher--who appeared intoxicated and smelled strongly of alcohol--interrupted multiple times, shouting phrases such as "Charleston Chews." He continued to disrupt when Pastor Jaime led the prayer. Afterward, Mr. Maher took the floor, spoke incoherently, left, and then returned to speak again. At one point, he came within a foot of my 8-year-old daughter, slapped his own arm, and yelled, "He is in your blood." Many guests later approached me in shock, asking who he was and why he was present. After the service, Pastor Jaime asked me to extend grace, explaining that Mr. Maher suffered from PTSD but was generally considered reliable. Several staff members also privately expressed concern, stating they had never seen him in such a condition, and later contacted me to ask if I had been able to reach him, as they could not. They voiced worry that his behavior might recur at another upcoming service. I spoke directly with Mr. Maher, who was initially defensive but assured me my satisfaction was "paramount" and that he would review my bill for reimbursement. After numerous follow-ups, I received communication from his business partner and attorney, who sent me a non-disclosure agreement (with my father's name incorrectly listed) requiring my silence in exchange for a refund. In an email, Kevin stated that upon signing, the refund would be processed within 24 hours. Against my better judgment, and because I wished to give the funeral home the opportunity to improve, I signed the agreement. It has now been more than 80 days since the service, and no refund has been provided. Instead, I received an email from Mr. Maher, containing multiple typographical errors, stating that there would be no refund and implying suspicion of my intentions. I need to be clear: I only signed their agreement because I genuinely wanted to give this funeral home the opportunity to take responsibility and improve. But their failure to follow through, combined with the behavior we experienced at my father's memorial, shows a lack of accountability and respect for grieving families. A loss is already difficult enough without the last memory of a loved one's service being overshadowed by an intoxicated, disruptive funeral home owner. Families deserve compassion, professionalism, and dignity during such a painful time--not this

Out of the many places we contacted, they were one of the few who offered condolences right away. It may seem like a small gesture, yet it spoke volumes to us during a painful and vulnerable time. Emanuel walked with my sister and me through every step of the process with warmth and patience. He took the time to sit with us, answer our questions, and make sure our concerns were fully resolved. We were able to review the setup for the service a day ahead, which gave us peace of mind and the opportunity to adjust anything that did not feel quite right. My mother looked absolutely beautiful for her memorial. Her makeup was natural and soft, and she appeared radiant, almost as if she were resting peacefully. Seeing her honored with such dignity meant more than we can put into words. Because of Emanuel and the staff at Emanuel's Chapel Funeral Home, my sister and I were able to give our mother a truly beautiful service. We are deeply grateful for their kindness and professionalism during one of the hardest moments of our lives. God used their compassion to help carry us through, and for that we are thankful.
