Serenity Funeral Home provided my family with exceptional care and support during one of the hardest times in our lives. From the moment they transported my mom dianne jo myers from the hospital to the thoughtful preparation for her memorial and cremation, everything was handled with professionalism, respect, and compassion. The staff made sure our family could say goodbye in a peaceful and meaningful way, and their kindness will never be forgotten. I am truly grateful for the care they gave my mom and our family.

For the past several years, Serenity has handled cremation for my dogs after they've passed. Their staff are all absolutely outstanding -- professional, respectful, compassionate, and helpful. Their prices for pet services are extremely reasonable, and they do their work on time. I highly recommend them.

I couldnt praise Gary Kelleys Funeral Service enough for how we appreciate all they have done for our family through our loss of a loved one recently. We were treated with kindness and everything was handled with sincerity. The service went beyond our expectations in every way. I highly recommend Gary Kelley AddVantage Funeral Services.

Google Reviewer

Mr Kelley and staff were my most reliable and sensitive-to-family needs funeral business with whom I worked during my ten-year pastorate in Tulsa. I am now ministering in another state and can find no one as genuine, professional, and courteous as Mr Gary Kelley.

Google Reviewer

Gary Kelley, his family, and his team at Add'Vantage provided exceptional support during this challenging time. Initially, I was hesitant after reading some reviews, but we chose Gary Kelley's Add'Vantage for their value. As we had originally planned a closed-casket funeral with no viewing at the funeral home. The gentleman sent out to pick up my father-in-law was highly respectful and courteous. The front desk staff were just as polite, patiently addressing all our questions with care. Gary Kelley himself was deeply respectful during our meeting, offering his condolences and assuring us of his availability by phone for any needs or concerns. After seeing the remarkable care they provided for my father-in-law, we opted for an open-casket funeral. The team was incredibly accommodating, assisting in every way possiblewhether bringing items to the chapel to ease our burden or going back to the funeral home to pick up a speaker when we couldn't figure out the chapels equipment. Overall,

5 stars for the service I received from the 1st contact to the last. I cannot tell you how incredibly simple the process was thanks to the professionalism and care that was shown. About 90% of the process was directly taken care of by them. Anything that could be done by them was done. Any1 that has lost a parent understands the emotional and psychological distress that comes with it. Thanks to Cremation Care Centers my mom's final arrangements were as painless as possible. Thank you to everyone that I came into contact with. Your kindness and care will never be forgotten. I have no doubt that if/when I require this type of service again you will be my 1st call. Blessings to you in all your future endeavors

The Parker family is forever grateful for the experience we had with the Moore Southlawn team. Starting with the very first interaction, there was nothing but caring professionalism as we maneuvered through the process of celebrating my fathers life with meticulous detail and dignity. Although funeral planning is never easy in the wake of many emotions and deep sorrow, I cant express enough how much of the burden was relieved by the Moore team. My sincere thanks from the entire Parker family.

My family has trusted Moore Funeral Homes for over 40 years (probably longer) with the care of our family members. My sister and I recently planned the services for our beloved mother. Gerald was our director and he immediately showed the compassion my sister and I desperately needed and treated our mother with the respect and dignity she rightfully deserved. He made the process of making the arrangements as easy as possible and was careful to not overwhelm us with unnecessary decisions. Moore hosted the visitation and viewing and made sure the service went as planned. What I didn't expect was the little things that you don't think about in your grief like taking pictures of all the flowers she received and stapling those pictures to the cards, so you can remember to thank everyone properly and the picture of the chapel setup they took that showed how lovely everything looked. What mattered most is how every person associated with Moore Funeral Homes showed compassion and respect durin

My family has used Angel's Pet Funeral home twice since 2022 for their cremation service. They provided an ink paw and nose print, as well as, a cast paw print. They have a variety of options for your fur baby's ashes from urns to engraved rosewood boxes, depending on your budget. They offer a compassionate way to help in a difficult situation.

We recently were faced with the difficult situation of the decline of our 18-year old dog. I made several calls to Serenity as we were walking through this time.

I unexpectedly lost my boy Dougie on Dec 22. I live out of state and had just arrived for the holidays a few hours before. When I woke up in the middle of the night and found him gone I immediately Googled pet cremation services because I couldnt bring myself to put him in cold storage. Serenity popped up. Being after hours I was connected to a call service initially but I received a call from Laurie (I apologize if its not spelled right) within minutes. She met me at the funeral home. Because it was so sudden and I was so upset I dont remember parts of meeting her well but I do remember her asking if I needed a hug while I cried hugging him. I didnt accept and drove the hour back to where I was staying in silence. A few days later when I picked him up she asked if I needed that hug. I did. Maybe it was the grief but when I got that hug it felt genuine and it helped for sure. Considering the situation I think this place is great. Thank you again Laurie.

Gibson Veterans Cemetery without a single hitch! My late Beloved Brother is now gratefully at peace in large part due to Cassandra and Stanley Funeral Home in Tulsa!

Where do I start about how wonderful Stanleys Funeral Home was with my loved ones arrangements& The staff was professional and filled all needs and answered all of the many questions. I especially want to give kudos to Cassandra, the Funeral Director, I know it takes a special kind of person to perform her job duties and she definitely is in the right profession. She was very caring in such a difficult time and situation. Also wanted to say specifically how nice and meaningful the military honors were for my loved one which they planned

I cant tell you how wonderful it was to have Cassandra at Stanleys walking me through my fathers passing. From the first moment, I knew that I would be taken care of. I knew nothing about making arrangements, so i appreciated Cassandra walking me through the process, and answering a bunch of questions. My experience with Stanleys was superb care, and they made this process, so much smoother than I could have dreamed. If you want knowledgeable people who want to guide you through this process, call Cassandra at Stanleys. You will be taken care of.
