My mom was his…read morepartner for 9 years, spent everyday together and he passed in front of her the day before their anniversary. His "former former" ex wife that hasn't been in his life for 25 years told them that she was in charge and wouldn't let my mom in the family viewing and threaten to have her removed for being there in general. The funeral home did nothing when this was explained to them. They had the names above the doors wrong, one of his best friends pointed it out to the funeral home to make sure they cremate the right person but they didn't do anything about it. To make it even worse, a disorderly man went on a rant bashing my step father and it went on for far too long and no one stepped in or stopped him or asked him to leave until one of my step dads childhood friends stepped in. This happened in front of children that looked at him like a grandfather. This place was honestly disgusting, unprofessional, disrespectful and they had no empathy or sympathy. My step dad deserved better!!! From the moment you walked in the energy wasn't right but this service was cringe and unacceptable all around.

Robert & Rocco were phenomenal during such a difficult time for our family, providing great compassion and detail to every aspect of the service. With a whirlwind around us and essential family members missing from the wake and funeral, the staff was even kind enough to record moments for us to look back on so the loved ones missing could see what took place. We can't thank everyone at Ryan-Parke enough, and if you happen to be in search of a funeral home that goes above and beyond, this one is it.

My mother unexpectedly passed away and our family had no idea where to start and did not know much about our options, processes, cost, etc. We did not want to get too overwhelmed, so we picked two area homes to visit and would make our decision afterwards. Jackie @ Smith-Corcoran was so wonderful and explained everything to us - answered all of our questions, explained every option available, etc. We felt completely at ease and knew that this would be the funeral home that we would choose. Every last detail was covered; her visitation was just how she would have wanted it and her funeral mass was lovely. All of the staff that we met were just as professional, compassionate and helpful. I would highly recommend Smith-Corcoran

But, NH Scott & Hanekamp truly went above and beyond to help my family say a proper goodbye to our loved one who passed unexpectedly. Prior to picking NH Scott, my family called and visited several other funeral homes in the area. From our very first interaction, it was clear that NH Scott was superior. During our initial meeting with Justyne, it was evident she was focused on making us comfortable and making sure we knew what to expect during each step of the process (as opposed to being more focused on the business or contractual aspects of the arrangements). This is why we chose NH Scott initially, and we couldn't be happier that we did. Our initial impression proved to be very accurate. Justyne and the other owners and employees, including Jon, continued to provide a high-level of customer service and emotional support throughout the entire process. They were always incredibly easy to reach any time we had a question or request, and continued to always respond with kindness and understanding. I truly cannot say enough good things about this funeral home. I am so grateful for their help during this difficult time.

This is one of those businesses you hope you never have to use. But that said, every service I have attended here has been handled with respect, decorum and professionalism.

I thought that was a nice touch as sometimes people do not have the ability to travel to locations or get time off of work. There is a nice size parking lot and the physical space and rooms are well maintained and clean.

I have always believed in "people first money second" especially in a time like this. Jamie Greenbaum was born for this position, her sensitivity, compassion and understanding of people who have lost a loved one was impeccable.

The night before we needed to get photos in so they can make a montage. One of our family members gave me the wrong email and all emails came back with our pics.

I'm so very pleased that we picked Nelson Family Mortuary for the funeral service and graveside…read moreservice of my 17-year-old granddaughter. We had the funeral service in their Provo funeral home and the graveside service in Heber City. Lance Nelson and his staff, Isabelle, Claire and Colin, were very patient and compassionate as I shed many tears each time I called the funeral home prior to my granddaughter's expected death and after. They listened each time I called and were very helpful. I called them every day during the two weeks of planning with questions I had about things, and it was great that someone was always available to help me; and if I had a question after hours, the answering service took a message, and I was contacted shortly thereafter. The rooms for the service in Provo were beautiful and had mountain views. Everything went smoothly. They provided tables with tablecloths, easels and stands for the flowers, two slideshows (for the viewing and a separate one for the funeral service), and livestreams for both services. Lance and Allison attended the funeral service and graveside service to make certain everything went smoothly. The planning meeting with them was easy. They had caskets onsite which was a surprise, and we picked the one we liked best. We expressed to them how we wanted the services to go, and they did every single thing the way we wanted. They also made my granddaughter look very beautiful in her casket for the viewing. She wore a single braid and they inserted tiny silk flowers we provided them plus matching nail polish. We received many compliments about how beautiful the funeral services were. I suggest you have the butterfly release, as it was extraordinary. If you're looking for a mortuary for a loved one, pick this place! I'm certain your experiences will be like ours: easy planning, and the most beautiful send off for your loved one. My family, friends and I will have these memories forever! I was even able to watch the service again on their website so that I remember each and every detail of it forever. Also, my sister who couldn't attend on the day of the service was able to watch it at a later date.

After witnessing an absolutely horrible funeral home before this, we found Colonial Wojciechowski. Their friendly demeanor and compassion were the first things we noticed. The space is beautiful, a lot lighter and open than most Chicago funeral homes. The dining area is modern and beautiful. The staff on the day of our visitation were incredibly helpful including helping with all the food prep in the dining area. All our guests said how welcoming the staff was when they entered as well. Al also helped us separating ashes for us and family after the service. Thank you so much for all you did for our family.

Let me preface this with the fact that my Great Uncle had made pre-arrangements with another funeral home... which closed a few years back (he was 94 at the time and living in a nursing home). As his Power of Attorney, I was put in the position to have to redo everything. Colonial was fantastic with helping me through all of the details. They were able to review what the previous funeral home had arranged and were able to match everything working within the costs that were preset. When I left after that initial meeting, I felt that everything was in good hands. Fast forward, a few years later when I received the call that my Great Uncle had passed, Colonial really stepped up. Al and his staff are extremely professional and I can't thank them enough for all they did.

When we got to the cemetary it was extremely huge . The sections make no sense we drove around the cemetery for over 3 hours we even went to the office and they gave us a map of the cemetery and even marked on the map where it was. We finally found the section 40 but nothing is marked indicating what area in section 40 the grave is just a bunch of plots. The plots were not taken care of the headstones were sunken in and nothing saying what number grave he is buried at or what is location 76 grave 3 just a bunch of head stones. The bathrooms in the office the sinks did not work, hardly no toilet paper really disgusting. I'm calling them to complain. Really sad the place is not being taken care of

It was established as a Polish cemetery in 1872. There are multiple former congressmen buried here, including Dan Rostenkowski, whose fall from grace was legendary in this area. Also found here in Section Two of the cemetery (in the east section, to the south of the entrance) is the tomb of George Halas, the founder of the Chicago Bears. I'm not from Chicago and not a football fan, least of all a Bears fan, but I found it interesting for the very large impact he had in the Chicago region. One thing I found really interesting at St. Adalbert is the number of really well-kept mausoleums. There were dozens that were built in the early 20th century that had windows that were recently cleaned, and you could see the art glass in the back wall of the structure clearly through the door. It was really interesting to see these ones that seem so carefully maintained after all these years.

They section it off if they have several wakes that day/night and label it so each group knows what food to take. They have a very large parking lot and are very reasonably priced. Especially when young kids are mourning the loss of a loved one this is a nice place with people who work there who do not seem to have their nose up in the air or to be curt with children.
