I truly have no words adequate to express mine and my family's gratitude for the kind care and professionalism provided to us upon the passing of our beloved Father ,husband, grandfather, great grandfather. We all felt that Vander May and specifically Rich went above and beyond. This was no cookie cutter funeral home. We were completely blown away how they took 25 pictures we provided and turned them into gallery quality framed photos. In the most emotional of times they provided such care and comfort. We are forever grateful.

Worst funeral procession Ive ver seen. The drivers were taking all of the lanes at the same time, cutting off other motorists and stopping short almost causing accidents with large box trucks. I respect funerals but this one by the funeral goers was an accident waiting to happen. Get your people together.

This is not a service anyone wants to use, but unfortunately, will have to at some point. Cliff, Ken and their staff were absolutely awesome in helping my mom and us get through a difficult time with the utmost dignity, respect and professionalism anyone could ever hope for. Every detail was handled with sensitivity and the experience of saying goodbye to my dad made worry free. Theyre truly the best in the business.

Go here for a funeral for your loved one! Charlie and the staff did an amazing job working with me through this difficult process. The constant graceful communication and patience despite all my questions at all hours of the night and many requests was greatly appreciated. I was worried that I wouldn't have sufficient photos collages and they went above and beyond even surprising me with custom creations that I will likely frame or use again at an annual memorial celebration. The attention to detail and quality helped to facilitate a beautiful tribute to my father. While the overall process felt like an intense wedding to plan, Charlie directed the process with grace and tact each step of the way providing me with some comfort and reassurance as I wanted perfection for this final walk down the aisle with my dad. The Cemetary and church were also coordinated by Charlie and he made this easy as there were multiple moving pieces. The morning of I was a little upset because some of the posters I printed were too large and weren't laying right but Gareth went to the rescue and was able to trim the edge and posted it on a hard board so it would be perfect. I loved the photo handouts for all guests and the laminated cards and laminated obituary. They offered quality touches that I haven't seen at Vander Platt which is where I was trying to originally go. Everything happens for a good reason. I'm happy I landed here for my dads funeral/wake. They give you a checklist and make everything easy for you...there are SO many decisions to make. Even the donation cards were a nice touch. They provided me with an extra glass bowl so I could supply gum for guests and accommodated my every need and question. I loved the program and directions that were provided to the guests. Also, they packaged up everything extra in a neat bag with a bow and provide an unlimited number of custom thank you cards. This place is top notch and I'm SO GLAD I put my trust in Charlie and the staff at Vander May! Thank you for a beautiful day to remember my dad!
