Even though we have troubled Dennis with phone calls throughout the day and night, he has remained respectful and light hearted. As disorganized as our time was and our religious traditions, Dennis accommodated for our needs and was understanding to our family. When we had to reschedule the service days last minute, he wasn't unkind or iffy of our choices, instead he happily reschedule even though it was on such a short notice. As the service day arrived, he even went out of his way to check on us in the middle of such a hard time and made sure we were on schedule. On the funeral day, he had ensured that our loved one safely arrived to her final resting place. His actions and kindness were truly heartwarming as the owner and advisor of the chapel. In combination with his hospitality, his pricings were affordable and humble.

The owners, Mike & Robyn Ewing; along with their staff could not be more caring, classy and sincere. They are by far what leaders are all about in their communty(s). Very fair and honest. Amazing people. God Bless you all !

We recently utilized their services, WOW! So respectful and sincere and absolutely honest. My mom and dad purchased a policy from an insurance company and had their funerals paid for. The original funeral home closed and no one notified my folks except for a letter from the insurance company, which was confusing. We decided to go to Mosers. A huge relief was lifted off our shoulder when they said the insurance company was reputable and they had worked with them. Their cost was higher than the policy was wrote for, and they were very honest and was able to adjust some pricing to help the hard blow. Brett and his team that worked with us were fantastic, we also had my moms policy switched and now have the comfort of knowing we will be in great hands!

The staff at Dugan are wonderful people. From the very first meeting that we had all the way through to the end they were attentive and concerned. Marshelle handled everything for us & she made dad look wonderful, made everything go smoothly, was instantly available to answer questions&she inquired several times as to how my mother was doing, even after the service was over. If you have to say farewell to a loved one the folks at Dugan will help you say it in the best possible way.

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic the process of dealing with someone passing has changed greatly. Marshelle was fantastic to deal with and handled everything with my fathers passing professionally. She was able to answer all my questions and was always able to be reached with any questions. Thank you for everything.

We were camped for one night over at the fairgrounds while traveling through. I was admiring how beautiful the cemetery was so I thought Id share and give credit to the groundskeeper. Its one of the most beautiful cemeteries Ive seen. Id be happy to live there - just not today, good Lord willing.

There is a Catholic section, toward the back, and the sexton is in the front portion of a house near a garage outside the main gate. He can look up all of the names in the cemetery. HE was very helpful !
