Families deserve dignity -- not trauma…read more I personally paid almost $8,000 to GH Herrmann Funeral Home to handle my father's remains. After they took custody of him, they failed to properly preserve him. He was left unrefrigerated for days, and his body visibly decomposed. The smell will never leave my memory. Under Indiana law (IC § 23-14-31-37), if immediate cremation is not possible, funeral homes must place remains in a proper holding facility that preserves health and safety. That did not happen here. Although my siblings & I declined embalming, we were never informed that this funeral home had no refrigeration, & that our father's body would be left unrefrigerated to decompose. Had we been given that information, we most certainly would have made different arrangements. When I raised concerns, I received an extremely unprofessional and abusive call from Jeff Herrmann, the co-owner of the funeral home. During the call -- which I lawfully recorded -- he said to me, "the fucking motorcycle accident turned him into a slushie, not us." Additionally, although my family arranged for my father -- a veteran -- to receive full military honors, at the funeral GH Herrmann Funeral Home told us they "didn't have time" to allow the full Honor Guard ceremony to take place. This final disrespect toward my father, who served his country, was devastating to our family. The full audio recording of my conversation with Jeff Herrmann is available upon request.

Eric never pushed to "sell" us, he walked us through the options, made great suggestions and really listened to what we said about my sister.

I don't think Eric realized how much my family and I appreciated his support, empathy and his genuine sincerely.

I attended a visitation at Little & Sons yesterday for a family friend that passed…read more There is ample parking and were several handicapped spaces out front. I also noticed, and later utilized, a bench out front near a standing ashtray. Through the double doors at the entrance was a large foyer with a vaulted ceiling that was well decorated. To the left, down a short hall, was the chapel where our friend was. The funeral home seemed large, airy and bright. I am not sure if there was more than one chapel, but the chapel we were in was quite big with many pews. I overheard some ladies remarking on what a wonderful job Little & Sons had done with their relative. They had said you would think they personally knew him with the touches they made. I believe that says quite a lot. The ladies' room was a bit cramped and possibly in need of a little maintenance, but was still nicely decorated as well and fully stocked. There was also a bench inside on which to sit. The toilet in the handicapped stall has some trouble flushing and they could upgrade to two sinks. When we first arrived, I noticed a lady at a desk off to the side that smiled at us, but we were not ever greeted by any staff like I have been at many other funeral homes. Overall, I thought it was a lovely place. I feel like Little & Sons would be a good choice for anyone in need of a nice sendoff for a loved one.

So our loved one recently passed away and it was quite sudden so when leaving the hospital they provide you with a list of funeral homes and you need to make a decision within 24 hours of your loved ones passing! We first contact W&B because they came highly recommended and am I glad we did choose them! LaMonde Nixon the director was really patient with us and not judgmental of our family dynamics and dysfunction but helped us maneuver through the most difficult time of someone's life! From Ms. Norma at the front to Kayla everyone was so warm and understanding! As Mr Nixon was able to smoothly work with our insurance company and we found a plan that was suitable for our needs! So if you're ever in the need of a good funeral home and I pray that you won't be in a need any time soon but if you are I truly recommend Williams & Bluitt Funeral Home!

Selecting a funeral home is something we never like to think about until the time is facing us…read more Should that happen and you are put in the path of selecting a funeral home for your loved one, I'd recommend Conkle on 16th Street. They also offer Pre-Planning packages to avoid putting your loved ones through this experience. They are compassionate, kind, respectful of your loved ones, and they gently walk you through the selection process. They realize you're numb from grief and no one is ever ready for this process in our lives. Conkle's interior remains as it has been for years but is clean, well maintained and cared for even though the drapes are certainly out of style. I know! Who's looking at the drapes at a time like this? The chapels are large and can be increased or decreased as necessary. They try to accommodate every person's budget and are helpful even after the service when you need death certificates or have questions. One additional thought is many restaurants are located within walking distance of Conkles in Speedway for those who spend hours supporting the family. This was brought to my attention and much appreciated for those assisting the family and friends.

Conkle has been gracious, patient, informative and professional without pushing additional services or options. They allowed us space and time while guiding us through the necessary steps. Their staff was prompt and respectful when they came for Dad's body and they worked swiftly without rushing to provide that service. Les helped us through each step of planning the services and has continued to assist us with things like applying for a DD-214 to verify military service and securing additional death certificates. We have felt listened to, respected and valued. Recommendations are suggestions, highly personal, and I highly recommend Conkle.
