Keith understood and worked diligently to make sure the changes reflected new amended information for the historical record. He also was willing to make changes to the obituary and was always timely and cheerful about doing so despite our inability to get things correct. When we were finally able to have our service, Keith provided us a detailed step-by-step outline and to our surprise worked to set up the Honor Guard Ceremony. It was so profound for all in attendance at the celebration, I don't think there was a dry eye in the place. Keith Rosa always kept us abreast of every stage in the process. From death certificates and notifications, Social Security, County Clerk and more, it was so worth the price to have a one-point-of-contact for this difficult time in our family's life. We thank them and will always offer a glowing recommendation to anyone needing end of life arrangements.

I would first like to recognize Scott E. Gatze for his exceptional service. He was professional,…read morecompassionate, responsive, and genuinely helpful. His willingness to step in completely turned our experience around, and he is truly an asset to your organization. Unfortunately, our experience with Jonathan Sandwell was extremely disappointing. His handling of our loved one's arrangements was, in our experience, unacceptable. The flower order he handled was incorrect, communication was poor, and there was a serious lack of urgency in securing the necessary dates for the military funeral honors. Critical arrangements were left until the last minute, forcing my family to step in and take action ourselves to ensure everything was properly coordinated. This was not simply an inconvenience. Had my family not intervened, our loved one could have missed the military honors they had earned and deserved. That is an incredibly serious failure when you are entrusted with helping a family honor a veteran. What made the situation even more frustrating was Jonathan later appearing to take credit for arrangements that my family had personally worked to secure. Based on our experience, I would strongly recommend that families choose someone other than Jonathan if they have that option. He did not give us confidence that our loved one's arrangements were being handled with the care, urgency, or attention they deserved. His lack of follow-through created unnecessary stress for a grieving family at a time when we should have been able to trust the professionals handling these arrangements. Separately, I had a brief interaction with Victoria "Tori" Monforte when I asked a simple question. Unfortunately, I was met with an unnecessary amount of attitude rather than a helpful response. Although it was a brief interaction, it left a negative impression. During such an emotional time, families deserve compassion, professionalism, clear communication, urgency, and attention to detail. We are especially grateful that Scott demonstrated all of those qualities and helped restore our confidence in the process. His service showed us exactly what this experience should have looked like from the beginning.

It's a clean office with displays of headstones available. I was warmly greeted by Amber and she was so helpful. She put together a mock up of the headstone so that I had a general idea of what it would look like and so that I could share it with my family. When I went back I spoke to the manager (?) and he put together the final stone. Payment was super easy (online) and the prices were great. We ended up with a beautiful headstone for my folks and I could not be happier with Forever In Stone. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
