Blackburn-Giegerich-Sonntag Funeral Home did a wonderful job with my Father-in-law (in 2024) & Mother-in-laws (in 2026) wakes & funeral services. Kathy was wonderful helping us make all of the arrangements & was extremely responsive when we had questions or needed something. They treat your loved one & family as their own & are extremely professional.
When my Dad passed, I had NO CLUE what to do. He also wanted to be buried at Lincoln. He earned that privilege! Kathy Giegerich helped me through the entire process with the utmost compassion. It made things a lot easier in that devastating time. We were on a budget and she also helped us through that. My Mom was not emotionally able to deal with what was happening at that time. It was a comforting experience. Then Mom was gone. Again I was treated with the utmost respect and compassion. She worked with me on a budget as well, making me feel like I did a tribute to my Mom’s “Celebration of Life” as respectfully beautiful! I am and always will be eternally grateful…...read full review
Blackburn-Giegerich-Sonntag Funeral Home is the only place I would trust with my loved ones' final care. They are compassionate, patient and caring. Their facility is also beautiful and large enough to handle any amount of friends or family that might attend a service or visitation. I especially appreciate the large gathering room that they have recently added, it gives a family comfortable accommodations for rest periods during a stressful time. When my father passed away, we were uncertain about plans, and changed our thoughts frequently, they were so understanding and flexible, it made a very difficult time a bit easier on all of us.
