Funeral Services And Cemeteries in Wheeling

“We are very pleased with our Funeral Director, Ms Hardway. Our needs were complex due to death in Mexico. Ms Hardway was always available and worked through an ever changing set of facts and problems. She was calm, reassuring, and professional. She made a number of very helpful recommendations and guided us through the process with care and understanding. We appreciated her willingness to follow up with numerous details in Mexico and she did so successfully despite the language difficulties. This is the third time Altmeyer has served our family and we recommend them, highly. Ms Hardway is an excellent Funeral Director and served our family well.“

“Yesterday we had a memorial service for my father-in-law, Bruce D. Smith, at Burke Chapel in Warwood.From the very start the staff at Kepner made sure we were taken care of.-We live an hour and a half away, so they allowed us to make all of the arrangements without meeting in person.-They took care of everything: transporting the body, arranging military honours, making sure the obituary was printed, and even contacting the cemetery on our behalf.-Funerals and related services are expensive, but Kepner staff never tried to sell or upsell. When we changed our mind about purchasing an item, they were understanding and exceptionally kind.-The staff worked hard to helpful without being intrusive. We felt supported without feeling overrun.-We were offered guidance when we requested it, but when we didn't, we were allowed to set things up in the way that best worked for us. The freedom allowed us to work within the bounds of our grief and beliefs.-I know it seems small, but due to an illness that doesn't allow me to regulate heat/cold very well (I don't sweat, for instance), I became very warm. The staff adjusted the temperature settings without hesitation. I became comfortable and could focus on the service.-This is the 3rd service I've experienced at Kepner, though the 1st I've been involved in organizing. The quality and compassion are consistently high. We have even had a beloved pet cremated through Kepner, and that, too, was an experience of the same caliber.We are very thankful for the care, respect, and compassion shown to my father-in-law, to us, and to those who came for the service. It was a hard time made easier by people who really cared.“

“I live out of state and have family members buried at Greenwood cemetery,it is aways such a beautiful and peaceful place to visit.“

“Becky is wonderful - she is so kind and caring! My husband passed away and his sister wanted him buried with their parents here. Becky drove up to the gravesite to send me a picture of the markers so I could decide on my husband's marker in size and lettering.None of the family could attend the burial and Becky called to let me know the day he was buried and that her husband would say a prayer for him. I was deeply touched by their thoughtfulness and compassion.“
