I preplanned my mother-in-law's funeral with Weller's Funeral Home. She was to be buried in an old family plot in a cemetery that had long ago gone bankrupt. Nobody knew where the deed was nor the plot number where she was to be buried, just the fact that she was to be interred next to her husband, who had previously been buried in 2007.
Of course my mother-in-law died on a Sunday, when everything was closed, with internment scheduled for Monday 10AM.
One call to Weller's Bill Lincoln and everything magically happened: her body was picked up from the Assisted Living Facility, the ritual cleansing, wrapping in a shroud and placing in a simple pine box.
We arrived at 9:30A, the casket poised over the freshly dug grave. Bill was a symphony conductor and everything went as smoothly as possible. We even received an electronic copy of the Death Certificate by that afternoon.
Each time I spoke with Bill he was kind, patient and helpful: he listed to be able to meet our needs. He never tried to upsell me.
I recommend Weller Funeral Home most highly.
Frankly every family should preplan funerals. It removes much of the stress, panic and guilt, which occurs if done after death. read more
