July 23, 2023. For…read moremany years, my Mom had an advertisement taped on the refrigerator for John N. Santeiu and Son Funeral Home. She had written in parentheses (Romanian). Last year, my Mom and I went to visit Santeiu, as my Mom was elderly and declining, and I begged her not to leave all those decisions up to me at the last minute. We were so lucky to meet with Anne Santeiu-Ellis. She was caring and kind, and not at all pushy. Even though we were discussing the planning for, and purchasing of, end-of-life items and services, Anne has a soothing, calming voice and manner that helps you stay calm instead of becoming sad and hysterical. We picked out Mom's casket and vault, which made me feel better, because now I knew that my Mom was going to be buried in the casket of her own choosing. And her headstone would say exactly what she wanted. Anne called Acacia cemetery and let us know what their procedures and costs would be. Considering that no one wants to think of death and dying and funerals, Anne walked us through it in a compassionate way that made us feel relieved in making our choices in advance. Bless my Mom for having chosen in advance the outfit she wanted to be buried in. My Mom died on June 16, 2023. Brandy Carter assured us that she would treat my Mom with the utmost in respect and dignity. She washed and styled my Mom's hair as my sister had asked, and also painted Mom's fingernails red to match her outfit. They did indeed, dress my Mom in everything exactly as asked. This helped us to feel considerably relieved. John Ellis, III, let my sister and I spend time with my Mom before leaving for the cemetery. He was gracious and compassionate, which also helped with our grief. Everyone we met at Santeiu was kind and caring. I am so happy that everything went smoothly, with no arguing or hard feelings. Life itself seems like nonstop arguing over everything, and most people encountered nowadays don't seem to care about anyone except themselves. We appreciated that Santeiu treated us so thoughtfully, caringly, and compassionately. They understood that my Mom was deeply loved, that she had existed, and that her life had mattered. They definitely helped make a sad situation more bearable. Thank you to everyone at Santeiu. There is a photo of the flowers in her casket spray that I posted in the Google Reviews. I was not able to attach it here. My Mom had silk flowers all around the house, and I thought it would be lovely if we could use her silk flowers in the casket spray. My sister found "A Budding Florist," only 2 blocks away from Santeiu, and Sal agreed to work with our silk flowers. The arrangement he created was absolutely beautiful, and we couldn't have been happier. We are happy that her beautiful silk flowers were buried with her. If you have silk flowers you would like used in your funeral ceremony, please contact Sal at A Budding Florist. My Mom's name is Letitia Anna Vezane. Please see her obituary at the Santeiu website.

Whenever Chris or Nova began a trip, they called to update me on the status--even if the trip didn't directly involve me. For example, when Chris started the pickup at the hospital, I received a call informing me. Once the body was loaded into the vehicle, he called again to confirm. Duzak went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. When we requested a final private viewing at the crematory, they readily agreed without hesitation. They even drove to our home to pick up the clothing and delivered copies of the death certificates they had collected from the county office--without us having to ask. Duzak was transparent about all costs upfront, so we never encountered any surprises. Their fees were very reasonable given the level of service provided.

I've been to some funerals and sometimes the deceased does not look like themselves and I get it because the body changes after death but my father he look like he was just sleeping with a smile on his face lol. The makeup wasn't heavy and they dressed him so neatly and nice. They treated our loved one as though he was the most important person in the world. Overall, they did a phenomenal job because it was a very difficult time for us and they made the planning process easy to do. Thank you!

Although it was late a night they made the arrangements to do so. Then, mom and I met with Larry the next day to begin the planning process. He asked us questions to understand our needs and walked us through several different options, including options for flowers, cards, guest book, military honors, selecting a minister, etc. He also explained they would order the death certificates for us and notify social security. He made the process easy to understand and with transparency regarding all costs. His staff was very helpful too. A few days later I called and asked about photo boards and the woman I spoke with told me I could come by and pick some up, along with a bag of pins, to take home. I took them home and made up a few boards of photos to show during the service. On the day of the funeral I went in a little early to drop off the photo boards. My neighbors also dropped off some food and beverages and a cooler with ice in the lower level sitting area. Matt was very helpful during the service as were other women who worked there. Larry checked in as well. During the service we had more people than anticipated and they quickly arranged more chairs. We also had the option to use the chapel for the service but decided to stay in the room up front. We had a lovely service for my dad and we thought that Pastor Drex did a really nice job. Because we were leaving the funeral home and going directly to dinner, they told me I could leave everything and come back the next day to pick everything up, which I did. Matt helped me load all the flowers in my car and he had everything ready to go for me including the flag, death certificates, all of the photos (they took down the photo boards for me), the guest book, extra memorial cards, and my dad's ashes. We were really pleased with the care and consideration of the entire team. They helped take a lot of stress out of the arrangements for us during a difficult time.

I completed the funeral services for my mother-in-law at the Gramer Funeral Home in Clawson in July 2024. As part of our family's customs, I plan to carry her ashes overseas next year for the immersion ceremony (Asthi Visarjan). When I submitted the application to the Consulate in October 2025 for a no-objection certificate to transport the ashes, they requested a cremation certificate with some specific information. I contacted Gramer Funeral Home for assistance, and Megan and Paul were extremely helpful. They prepared the certificate the same day--within just a few hours--and provided the required letter without any hesitation, even though a year had passed since the cremation. Their support, promptness, and understanding during this additional step meant a great deal to me and my family. Thank you, Navin
