We wanted to have her cremated and then have a celebration of her life and a mass on her birthday which was several weeks later. This was the most affordable option and we were treated with such kindness and respect. They answered all of our questions and helped guide us along the way. I was able to take care of everything online. After speaking with a friend who went through a funeral home to arrange the cremation we realized that we spent thousands less for the same service. Her celebration on her birthday was amazing and beautiful.

Thank you for your professionalism and compassion you had during this difficult time. I was able to speak with Erin prior to my husband's passing. When he finally passed it took one phone call and they were there at hospice to pick him up. They arranged everything including the military honor guard at the Baltimore National Cemetery. After my husband 's cremation they had everything ready for me to take him to the cemetery for internment. Celia, our funeral director, made decisions easy has she took her time and didn't rush me. If I am in The Baltimore area when I pass I am going to have them handle my final arrangements. Thanks to Craig Witzke for everything.

Craig Witzke, his family, and the staff of Candle Light Funeral Home are truly incredible. From the…read morebeginning of our contact with Craig, he really went above and beyond for our family after the sudden passing of my dad. They were able to make my dad really look like himself and at peace as our family and dad's friends said their goodbyes at his viewing. This was our family's first time needing to plan arrangements for a loved one so close to us and Craig facilitated this process with ease. He was available 24/7 by phone even during the holiday to answer all of our questions (as well as friends calling the funeral home) and make sure that dad's viewings and arrangements for transport to California (for burial) were settled. He was extremely accommodating to all of our requests. He consistently checked up on us during each 3 viewings to make sure that things were going smoothly and to see if we were okay. Craig really showed his excellence for me when he stepped away from his own family and arranged a short time for my mom, sisters, and I to see my dad on Christmas Eve before my dad was flown to California. It meant the world to us, especially my mom. Furthermore, after the burial was completed, Craig called us to make sure everything went smoothly with the transportation. Thank you to Craig and his staff for your wonderful services during this difficult time in our lives.

I am surprised to see five star reviews on this location. I guess it's just solidifying with me…read morethat the person we had really was inexperienced. We were recommended this establishment by the hospital as a privately owned funeral home. We have never put a funeral together so we're looking for direction. The highlights were they were available 24 seven and tried to answer our questions although the answers were not always correct.However when there was an issue they did try to resolve it immediately. The issues we had were: answers being "whatever you want "which doesn't help when we don't know what we're doing. I've never seen a viewing where they left the room empty with no chairs whatsoever we had to ask and then they put out about 15 chairs. There was only one person at the funeral home during the wake no one greeted the guests at the door or directed them. The day of the funeral our limo driver was a giggly young lady who did not know where she was going. She needed directions to the church and she got lost on the way back from the cemetery. These are things we do not need to think about during a funeral. I hope the young lady who was our "funeral director". understands that she's not directing much when people do not respond to what she is saying everybody stood at the cemetery looking at each other waiting for the next step. It was extremely awkward. I hope with some staff experience and some positive changes that this place will go back to the five star ratings that it's gotten before. Reading the other of reviews I agree that Sherri is extremely professional she is the one we communicated with through email. Our funeral directors name was Samantha. I cannot comment on the price as funerals in general seem extremely expensive I believe that these concerns will be addressed
