Thank you so much to Abby for all she did with caring for my mom. She had a pre-paid from out of state and when my mom passed Abby made it so easy and had that transfer to Kirby here. She was such a pleasure to work with that my wife and I are now planning ahead so it is just as easy for our daughter.
Each and every staff member at Kirby and family treated me with such respect. The funeral director always spoke to me in a soft compassionate voice and made the experience of burying my daughter as comfortable as possible. They helped get a marker for her grave that was beautiful and worked with me while I made my payments. They were a true blessing through the absolute worst time of my life.

I lost my husband in a tragic accident. The folks at Kirby were so gentle with me, leading me through the processes necessary. The service was held at the Kirby chapel. Everything was set up and beautiful when we arrived. My sincere gratitude to all Kirby staff and a special thank you to Sharlet.
