Immediately upon arriving in Memphis, we went straight from the airport to the funeral home, where…read morearrangements were made for us to visit my mother in law. 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.

The establishment was serene and well-kept, managed,and organized. The services were well worth the value of what was asked of the staff. I'd recommend this business for anyone who may be of interest of a final resting place for their love ones.

After talking to manager, they refused to give street address and said i can find it online. Very easy to understand why a 2 star overall rating is what they have. My guess, it will probably go much lower.

There are three chapels available for services (livestream is at your request only), and a spacious well lit area for the repast. A funeral is expensive, and I like that Serenity offers several packages to choose caskets, urns, limo service, flowers, programs, meals for the repast, and other preferences for your service. **Note that programs and burial services are through a third party. The cemetery is your choice and there IS one less than 5 minutes (literally 3 right turns) from Serenity. The programs were well put together, and you review before the final print. You also preview the body before visitation, and the mortician did a BEAUTIFUL job! My significant hangup with Serenity is the lack of organization amongst the staff. The staff was friendly, but with every visit we had to speak with a different person. This made for significant slip ups on the numbers, missing our same day burial date (even though it worked out in the end), misinformation on updates, program reviews, and information with the cemetery that was thankfully caught by us before signing the final copy! I believe having ONE liaison would've been best to keep information timely, accurate and give us as clients more confidence in the employee. Despite the lack of organization with the staff, the service was amazing. It left a great impression with us, the family and other guests. The chapel was beautiful and she looked gorgeous. The repast was classy and food excellent. I consider the experience with the staff a lesson in how to plan for next time. I'll leave a few tips here: 1. Know what the person wants before their passing. Awkward, but the guiding light for planning and budgets. It's VERY easy to let your feelings write the checks. Remember, it IS a business. 2. Take a friend or family member(s), preferably with funeral planning experience and knew the deceased. Serenity also has sample obituaries so you can see sizes and how the colors look on print. 3. Stay on top of information, even if you have to go over it again and again and again before you sign a final ANYTHING!

In 2013, they charged $5,400 for a BASIC cremation of a family member of mine. That is…read moreastonishingly high and a complete scam. Total average cremation cost for basic services in 2017 (four years later) is $1,500 (or less). When I say basic, we did nothing with Memphis Funeral Home other than cremation and an obituary in the local newspaper. NO memorial service, no fancy urn, nothing. I flew in from out of state to deal with this matter, and obviously my family and I were grief-stricken and under emotional stress. We did not have a choice in using MFH, the body had already been delivered there. MFH gouged us on price and offered little choice, education, or care. They hurried us through and got their money. Hope you sleep well at night, Memphis Funeral Home! Thanks for ripping us off during our time of grief.

If you can find another funeral home it is in the best interest, that of your deceased love one,…read moreand al of the friends and family that would attend. NEVER, no matter what you do, ever think of ordering catering with these people. We paid $1600 for what turned out to be 50 airline food quality sandwiches, some cheese cubes, some carrot sticks, and some really crappy cookies. Really a disgusting accent to someone's funeral and of such a super low quality that it's an insult to the deceased. The people who work here should be ashamed that this passes as "catering." Likewise, the families of those that work here should be ashamed that their family member works at a place that has such low quality food with $1550 in profit. They also won't let you unbundle flowers from the catering, which is also a hustle. SO: avoid this place at all costs. They take advantage of people at their most vulnerable and have ZERO BUSINESS SUPPLYING FUNERAL FOOD.
