I was completely lost when my mother passed. I was knee deep in shock, grief and had no idea where to begin with a funeral. I called several places and after every call I felt less and less confident that there would be anyone I would trust with.. her. The calls felt rehearsed and lacked any real sympathy and then aiming directly for the transactional aspects. We all want our lives to end with dignity and be handled with the knowledge that we are someone's family. When I called Newcomer I knew that their sympathy was genuine. Shelby, was so, so wonderful. She really took the time to walk me through every step and was patient with my indecision and grief. I would not have been able to get through that part of losing her without Shelby or all of the staff I spoke to at Newcomer. She (they) went so far above and beyond for us that I will always be grateful. In a time like that you need people who can see you through the moment with grace and that is exactly what they did. I know it's take
The staff is very professional and kind in the difficult process of losing a loved one. I would recommend this facility for your funeral needs.
We had a wonderful experience 27 years ago when my father passed away recently upon my mothers passing, I looked at a few other places out of location, convenience, and decided to go back to newcomers where the entire experience from start to finish was much more personable, direct, informative, and compassionate. Since death is a part of life, we will continue to use newcomers in the future.
