Reviews
On behalf of the Dengg family, we would like to thank the staff at the Goose Creek location for taking such good care of our Dad's arrangements. Immediately after his passing, two of the staff arrived in the middle of the night to drape a flag cover over his bed (he was a Navy veteran) and left a red rose on Dad's pillow for my Mom. Every detail of his arrangements were done like this - on both a personal and professional level. We also attended the special Christmas service at the funeral home for family members that had lost loved ones in 2023. Very moving. Please accept our sincere gratitude for your services and for how you treated our entire family. Special thanks to Don Miller and Megan.
From my first call the staff were friendly, compassionate, professional and respectful. Cory was my primary contact and he helped make this terrible time a little easier. I appreciate the words of advice and comfort.
