I called them in a panic, after the sudden loss of my mother in-law. I had searched many other funeral homes, and had become discouraged due to finances and most places being strictly about getting their money and sending you out the door. Distinctive Life staff was both professional and compassionate towards our family. Mr. Scott was available to speak with us any time we needed him, and answered any and every question we had. He went above and beyond in helping us plan a beautiful graveside ceremony to lay our mom to rest. It was a very difficult time for us, and he was respectful and sincere; offering words of encouragement and kind thoughts throughout the entire process. I truly believe finding Distinctive Life was a Godsend, and I don't know what we would have done without their help.

The pricing is affordable and the timeliness of my grandfathers cremation was exceptional. But what I really loved was experiencing the funeral director and his staff who came into pick up my grandfathers body from the bedroom, going to the van.

My family and I have used Williams Funeral Directors twice before, but after this most recent…read moreexperience, we will not be returning. The level of communication, professionalism, and care we received during one of the most difficult times of our lives was deeply disappointing. My loved one passed away on October 2nd, and his cremation did not take place until November 6th with little to no communication from the funeral home in between. It started the night he passed. Their partners took hours to arrive at the house, even though law enforcement had already informed them of his condition and approximate weight. They arrived completely unprepared, and a family member had to help them place his body onto the gurney. It was traumatic and unacceptable. The next day, October 3rd, we arrived on time for our scheduled appointment but were placed in Raul's office while he took a lengthy phone call. He later explained that he had been "looking for a casket large enough," despite not yet knowing our wishes and we did not need a casket at all. Throughout our meeting, he repeatedly joked and attempted to be overly friendly, which felt inappropriate given the situation. One of our requests was to view our loved one one last time, and Raul assured us it could be arranged for the following day. Instead, I received a call the next morning stating that viewing would not be possible "because of his size" and the need to involve a third party, which would result in additional fees. Only after several hours and my firm insistence were they suddenly able to make it happen the same day. Before the services (held eight days after his passing), I confirmed with Raul that a priest and someone to lead the rosary had been arranged. He later informed me that "Maria" from the church could lead the rosary and that I would need to pay her $100 because it "wasn't in the agreement." I reluctantly agreed. It was only afterward that I learned Maria is actually a salesperson for the funeral home. After the services, I asked Raul whether everything had been received from the doctor for the cremation. He said yes and that they were only waiting for the state's approval. Weeks passed with no updates. When I reached out on October 28th, he hurriedly told me they were still waiting on the county medical examiner and claimed he couldn't email me details because he was "out of town." Once again, only after repeated insistence on my part did things suddenly move, and we received the cremation certificate on October 30th. This entire process was far more stressful, confusing, and prolonged than it ever should have been. Losing a loved one is already devastating; families should not have to chase down information, argue for basic services, or experience avoidable delays and miscommunications. We are extremely disappointed in how this was handled and can no longer recommend Williams Funeral Directors based on this experience.

I'm about 9 1/2 years late on posting this review, but I saw someone on Facebook mention Wade…read moreFuneral Home and it brought back a bittersweet memory. Wade took care of my dad after he passed in February of 2016. As requested, my dad was to be buried a few hours away in central Texas. They loaded him up in their SUV and we started the long trek to the burial site. I had horrible anxiety at the time about driving long-distance on the highway so they accommodated me by taking the beautiful scenic route through the backroads which was such a comfort to me. And funny story: my mom (my dad's ex wife) got pulled over 5 minutes into the drive for expired registration. My dad was a prankster so I know he would've gotten a laugh out of this. The Wade SUV pulled over and went to speak with the police officer and asked him to let her go because this was a funeral procession for a loved one. They did let her go with a warning but it was so kind-natured of them to intervene for the family in mourning. They seemed very protective of us. Would highly recommend them.

Kevin at Wade funeral told me he could do all of that for me Well he did the part of taking my credit card and charge my it well over a thousand dollars. But he "forgot" to get any of the papers - even though I stressed to him Many times how important that was. I was coming in from out of town so I really needed to be sure to get the copies. When I arrived to Dallas, I sent an email to Kevin which was ignored so I drove over to Wade Funeral where Kevin was no where to be found and no one knew anything. So I sent another email that got ignored. Finally when I'm called again, I was told no copies Of the obituary were available because he forgot. Isn't this his job? Now I wish I would have placed the obituary myself and ordered the number of papers I needed directly from the paper and I advise you so that. Because now I don't have what my Family asked of me. And Kevin and Wade's Funeral Home don't care and will not make it right.
