I will never be able to thank you enough for the amazing celebration of Doug’s life that you were able to facilitate in October. I am so heartbroken that Doug is not here but I feel incredibly blessed by so many things and one of the blessings is you!
At first, I questioned whether DeJohn Funeral Homes was the correct option because of the distance. I checked your website and found it to be very informational and far superior to the others that I looked at. After visiting with you and your beautiful homelike facility, I knew that it was definitely the correct option. Add to that my family’s connection to your family I knew that we would be well taken care of.
You gave us good options and ideas. I don’t know how it could have been any better unless Doug was there! Between your thoughtfulness and care of my sons’ extra efforts, I was touched.
Thank you for your amazing funeral home. It was roomy, bright and airy. So many people told me what a lovely facility you have. The atmosphere was respectfully formal but homey. The TV screens were large, well placed and afforded everyone an easy view. The seating was comfortable for those who were there for long period of time. I was glad to see Jenn’s addition of the table with a “few of Doug’s favorite things.” We so appreciated being able to comfortably stay there at the cafe for our dinner between viewing time. I also very much appreciated that fact that Generations was next door and we could take care of everything with “one-stop shopping.”
I am grateful you let us try out the nametags for our family. It gave me a lot of comfort looking out and seeing all those little white nametags and knowing how much support I had. I was glad that people could look around and easily find and talk to other people who were such a big part of Doug’s life. and I believe the family appreciated being recognized.
But most of all, I am so grateful for your kindness thoroughness, and organization of all the moving part during that time. Thank you for coordinating the viewing, funeral mass and cemetery. Your guidance was invaluable. Throughout the whole process the obvious caring that you and your family and employees showed to us calmed and comforted me.
You are so very good at your job! Everyone deserves the kind of care and service you provide. My family and I can never thank you enough and will be forever grateful. I will continue to sing your praises and thank God for your extraordinary compassion and talent.
Wishing you all the best,
Jan C.
