This is one of those businesses you hope you never have to use. But that said, every service I have attended here has been handled with respect, decorum and professionalism.

I thought that was a nice touch as sometimes people do not have the ability to travel to locations or get time off of work. There is a nice size parking lot and the physical space and rooms are well maintained and clean.

I have always believed in "people first money second" especially in a time like this.

They lied ,gave us false information concerning government sponsored crime victim's funds, made false promises, price gouged , missed and re-scheduled appointments on short notice while out right playing on our grief and lack of experience. Every time we complained about one of the funeral directors ,they'd give us another director who would reassure us only to repeat this vicious, insensitive and blood-thirsty cycle all over again . And when we thought it couldn't get any worse, after arranging a viewing of the body for the night before the funeral and after billing us almost $10,000.00, they refused us the viewing and ended up sticking us in the smallest chapel they could have possibly found. These people/merchants have no compassion!

When we arrived, the first "sorry for your loss" came with no eye contact and sounded like a bored,…read morerehearsed script -- and that set the tone for everything that followed. It became clear very quickly that this funeral home is focused on money and volume, not compassion or care. Our service was rushed from start to finish. We were repeatedly interrupted with unrelated parking announcements. In the middle of my mother's honoring song -- a moment that mattered deeply to us -- the staff told us to turn the volume down so they could make yet another announcement. Although we arrived on time, they still cut our service short just to move on to the next one. Her slideshow wasn't even properly set up. Only one screen was turned on, leaving half the room unable to see her photos and memories. That level of carelessness during a final tribute is unacceptable. There were no tissues for mourners, no direction or support from staff, and no sense of leadership to help guide us through such an important moment. The entire experience felt cold, rushed, and transactional. To make things worse, they removed one of her songs from the obituary without explanation or permission. That was a personal detail we carefully chose to honor her life -- and they simply erased it. For a service that cost nearly $10,000, we expected respect, professionalism, and a facility that reflects dignity. Instead, the aesthetics are dated, uninviting, and in need of serious investment. The staff appears untrained, overwhelmed, and more focused on packing in back-to-back services than honoring the people entrusted to them. My family has used this funeral home for years, but after this experience, that ends with me. My mother deserved better, and families deserve to know what they're walking into. I hope people start paying attention and choose a place that truly cares instead of one that treats grief like a business transaction.

My mother unexpectedly passed away and our family had no idea where to start and did not know much about our options, processes, cost, etc. We did not want to get too overwhelmed, so we picked two area homes to visit and would make our decision afterwards. Jackie @ Smith-Corcoran was so wonderful and explained everything to us - answered all of our questions, explained every option available, etc. We felt completely at ease and knew that this would be the funeral home that we would choose. Every last detail was covered; her visitation was just how she would have wanted it and her funeral mass was lovely. All of the staff that we met were just as professional, compassionate and helpful. I would highly recommend Smith-Corcoran

They support the JA community so when I needed assistance, I went to Lakeview Funeral home. The old adage, one hand washes the other. Andrea is thorough, business minded and caring at the same time. Never dismissive. I did not choose a funeral service that was high priced. And to her credit Andrea did not try to sell me one. I believe that no matter what the funeral service price is, she would give you the same attentive, caring treatment. My phone calls are answered quickly, email questions answered promptly. I recommend Lakeview Funeral Home. When I walk into Lakeview the first person, I usually see is William Rodriguez, who always greeted me with a smile, how you doing? and directed me to where I needed to go.
