My husband of 23 years passed away suddenly on June 29, 2026. It was unexpected and very upsetting. Chris Boggs at Wagner-Elfner Funeral Home went above and beyond to make the entire experience as comfortable as it could possibly be. Chris was genuinely interested in learning about my husband and made some wonderful recommendations to us that enabled us to say goodbye to him in a way that honored him both in life and death. Losing someone you love can be very traumatic and it is hard to think clearly when making decisions about final arrangements. Chris made the entire process seamless, explaining everything along the way, giving us flexibility in our choices, and helping us curate an experience that fit my husband. Through their support, my husband's viewings and preparations were executed in a way that honored his true personality and life- all of which were ideas that they provided to us. I can't say enough great things about how Wagner-Elfner handled it all. Even when I made a last minute decision to have my husband interred at a church, they quickly pivoted to support my wishes. All of the staff has been extremely supportive, kind, and patient throughout this process. The attention to detail, communication, and coordination has been superb. I've been to other funeral homes in my life where everything was cookie cutter and there were sometimes two or three viewings happening at the same time. This doesn't happen at Wagner-Elfner. They focus on one family at a time which gives everyone who is grieving the space they need to visit with loved ones and start to heal. I would 100% recommend Wagner-Elfner to any family who finds themselves in need of final services for their loved ones. Thank you to the entire Wagner-Elfner family but especially Chris Boggs who stood by us throughout this entire journey. read more
