Thank you to Heritage Funeral Homes for making a difficult time in life easy and stress free. We met with Amber and she walked us through every step with care and compassion. She took the time to listen to us and learn about our dads life. In doing so, Amber went above and beyond with small details that helped to honor our dad. She followed up with us after the service and sent us a beautiful memory book with pictures of our dads life. We were so blessed to have Amber as our funeral director and for helping us put together a service that was honoring and beautiful. We would highly recommend Heritage.

Thank you to Heritage Funeral Homes for making such a difficult time in life easy and stress free! Paul met with my mother and me and walked us through every step, willingly answered our question. Heritage was able to accommodate the requests we had and was reasonable in their pricing. After the event, members of the team continue to reach out with concern and helpful suggestions to make hard transitions navigable. I will continue to use Heritage for our family needs and cannot recommend them enough!

Simple Cremation of WI has unfortunately had to serve our family two times within a year with the loss of two family members. Their kindness, compassion, patience and great communication skills is unmatched. If you are grieving a lost loved one, need compassionate service, and also desire to have very reasonably priced service, I highly recommend Simple Cremation of Wisconsin.
