When my daughter had the unfathomable task to plan the funeral for her first born child she asked me to help her find the best funeral home in San Antonio. Without hesitation I replied, Porter Loring. I already knew the reputation that Porter Loring had of being compassionate and providing quality care for the deceased and the families of the deceased. They certainly lived up to their reputation. They took care of everything for my daughter and son-in-law and most of all they provided immaculate care for my Grandson. I want to recognize everyone at Porter Loring for the outstanding job they did for my entire family. From the funeral directors: Crystal G., Amy G., Daniel G., Barrett S., Marisa M. To the amazing care team: Lexi L., Elena M., Bethany J., Avery M., Claudia R., Danny G., Shawn R., Kaine C., Hector G., Jermaine A., Aubrey C., Tetiana D. Administrators: Kelsey H., Amy N., Cristina R., Amy D., Dina A. Service Associates: Glori R., Riley R., Louis L. This entire staff deserves recognition because they showed my family that we weren't just another family experiencing the loss of a loved one. They treated us like family and displayed the utmost professionalism I have ever witnessed. Thank you to everyone at Porter Loring for making this experience better than we could have ever imagined.

Ally went all out to make sure my brother's body was transported since his last request was to donate his body. She made sure the obituary and prayer cards were BETTER than what I asked for. Thank you to the owners for working with her so we could have a special last farewell for my brother. I had the pleasure of meeting the Funeral Director, Eusebio Betancourt Jr. who picked up my brother from Bexar County Examiners office and the Driver that was transporting my brother to Huntsville, Texas, Steve. Again, very professional, and respected our brother. If you want to have a peace of mind and meet your loved ones last wishes, don't hesitate to contact Olinger Mortuary Serice.

First, stunningly, my loved one didn't look anywhere near who she was in life. Second, the owner made a disparaging remark about our loved one a few minutes after we had did the final viewing in preparation for the wake the following day. We were grieving and emotional and the owners comments were rude and disrespectful about our loved one's weight. At the final viewing, we requested a few touch-ups to the makeup and this simple action wasn't done. Third, we learned later that the owner was shining the casket on the day of the wake at the church and caused a stain on our loved ones clothes. Our loved one had requested we use this funeral home so we followed those wishes but after this experience, we would never use them. Previously, this funeral home was tip top thus the reason why our loved one requested we use Sutton & Sutton Mortuary Funeral Home. Opportunities of growth in diplomacy, professionalism, follow-through, authenticity and diligence are needed. We were stunned by the behavior of the owner who is positioned as a stalwart in the community. Right is right and wrong is wrong!
