The need for funeral services is inevitable and very personal. Providing those services in the most appropriately sensitive manner requires funeral directors to be open minded in their perceptions of each new clients needs. What will help this individual, or this family, to find peace during this unique time of need? Twenty plus years ago, John Slack did this for me when my parents died, and Marshall has done this for me as I prepare for life without my dear wife, Patty.
Slack Funeral Home goes above and beyond in every aspect of assisting families to get through a tough time! John Slack is warm, kind and professional in every way! His staff is efficient and willing to do whatever is necessary to ease the pain! Always a pleasure to interact at such hard times! Thanks to all for everything you do for others!
I had the best experience with this place my father died and John did a impeccable job with the body for the viewing. He truly captured my father in his best . I highly recommend this place to anyone who is using a funeral home service. Thank you so much John slack
