Graham-Hitch Mortuary Inc
“This is a slowly evolving review of the facilities. Normally, this isn't something you would regularly review unless it happens to you. In this case we had the unfortunate circumstance where my father passed away on Christmas Eve. Since we had no advance directive on what to do when it happens, we struggled to research facilities that handled cremation. Here's the bottom line. If a loved one is in the morgue in the hospital, the hospital will only hold the body for a few days before moving it to somewhere else. Since my father passed away just before a holiday, we had an additional day before we had to scramble to find a mortuary. We met Dennis at their office in Danville. He provided step-by-step instructions on what to do. We did check out other facilities, and eventually came back here. Value wise, is was cheaper than Queen of Heaven ($9,000) and Oakmont ($32,000) to bury our father. Cost wise, it WAS better value here at Graham-Hitch. The benefit here is the use of their facilities which is nondenominational, meaning you can have a religious leader of any religion hold a service here. The room, which had no photos available (so I took some) can hold up to 200 people. They also have an AV room with drop down screen. They quickly moved my father to their refrigeration after we confirmed the paperwork.Our service is in a week.”
