Dear Chelsea, I…read morewanted to take a moment to sincerely thank you for everything you did for our family during such a difficult time. Your respect, professionalism, and compassion truly meant more to us than words can express. Because we do not live in town, coordinating everything through text messages, phone calls, and emails could have been overwhelming. However, you made the entire process smooth and manageable. Your responsiveness and willingness to take care of every detail eased a great deal of stress for our family. I especially want to thank you for helping calm a very challenging situation. Emotions were understandably high, and when my aunt repeatedly insisted on making announcements about her husband's funeral services scheduled for the following day, it became distressing for our family. We felt strongly that this time was meant to honor my father-in-law, and your calm, respectful assistance in helping address the situation made a meaningful difference. Your presence helped keep the focus where it belonged and restored a sense of peace and order. Additionally, when there were family members behaving rudely or out of place, you handled those moments with remarkable professionalism, kindness, and care. The way you spoke with them privately and compassionately did not go unnoticed and was deeply appreciated. Your ability to remain patient, composed, and genuinely caring throughout everything brought comfort to our family during an emotional time. We are truly grateful for your dedication and support. Thank you again for everything you did for us. Ullrey Memorial Chapel is fortunate to have someone as compassionate and professional as you. With sincere appreciation, RMAERN

We were there when she passed and she did not have ANY damage to her face. NONE. ZERO! These people do not care about your loved ones and I would never recommend them. The least these folks could do after taking so much money for a funeral is to leave your loved ones looking dignified. They DID NOT accomplish that. I also found it extremely distasteful for them to have an employee promoting their funeral home while the coroner was still trying to put her body in their van. Classless.

They called me the very next morning to say they had to get someone to sign the death certificate, then probably the next week I'd have to come in and go over it. AND did I know what I wanted to do? It hadn't even been 24 hours yet, I hadn't slept the night before and his concern was what did I want to do? I told him I was thinking cremation but would not be making any decisions until I had a chance to talk to my adult children. He interrupted with "You have to have permission. " I said "What?" "You have to have permission to cremate" He then said he'd get back to me. I called a week later asking about whether he had gotten the death certificate signed. No, he said. He was still waiting. It then occurred to me he didn't have the information he'd need to put on there,and how would a doctor sign it without it being filled out? He asked again about what we wanted to do. I told him cremation. Again, "You have to have permission " Finally, I decided to call Holycross funeral home. I left a message and almost immediately got a call back. Yesterday I went in. He had already made the call to Lipp and Sullivan to take possession of my husband's body. He had all the paperwork ready for me to sign, and amazing many of my questions before I could ask. He was very irritated at Lipp and Sullivan for the way they made my family and I wait without any action at all. Losing my husband was difficult enough, and Lipp and Sullivan made it even more difficult . (NOTE: You do not need permissions to have your husband cremated) I Got the distinct impression that 1) He wanted to sell me a casket. 2) That he was old school and thought women should just go along and be meek. I'm not that way. I push back when I feel I'm right or someone is being taken advice of. I DEFINITELY would stay far away from them. It's hard enough to lose a loved one .Then to have a funeral during who shows no initiative, and no respect for you or your wishes makes it more difficult .

As anyone could imagine, the death of a family member is a moment of grief, sorrow and stress…read more Unfortunately this business did not make this process any easier. My family member passed in early-mid January but due to lack of availability in their scheduling, our family made arrangements about three weeks after the passing of our loved one. The viewing and burial service was scheduled for early February at 9:30am at Our Lady Lourdes Parish School gymnasium in Colusa. On the DAY OF the service, the location was changed to the Church of Our Lady Lourdes for unknown reasons. On the morning of/arrival at the service, there were no signs or point of contact at the original location to redirect family and attendees to the new location. This led to many phone calls interrupting the service asking where it would be held. Upon arriving to the new location- the church-, we are then informed that there would only be a limit of ten allowed in at a time. This news caused a large family to be left outside of the church in windy and cold conditions. Because of restrictions, there were still workers setting up- causing a delay in our service of 30 minutes to an hour. Employees tried very mediocrely to duct tape a speaker to a light pole. The speaker wouldn't connect and our family( of about 60 ppl+) were left with no audio or visual broadcast. We didn't know when the ceremony started or ended. Of course those that made it in, did not and should not have had to sacrifice their attendance at such an important event. The lack of coordination and messiness in their services really made this event frustrating and more difficult during this time of grief and loss. Arrangements could have been made with time to have the service either outside or at a different location. During the burial, workers distributed pamphlets with a prayer and times/locations of the services in Spanish. The pamphlets had numerous typos/mistakes-misspellings and grammar- seems like workers can't even make an honest effort in translating or double checking the translation. It seems like whoever made these pamphlets procrastinated on them as if they were a last minute college paper and popped everything into google translate.
