From the very beginning, Jacob walked us through every step with patience and understanding. When we felt overwhelmed, he took the reins and handled every detail with professionalism and genuine concern. His calm presence and thoughtful guidance he provided was comforting at a time we needed it most. Jacob created beautiful service cards that perfectly honored our loved one. He coordinated the local service seamlessly and went above and beyond by arranging military honors for the service back home. Including the playing of Taps and the presentation of the flag, ensuring a fitting tribute to a life well lived. What made the greatest impression was not only his professionalism but his sincere compassion. Jacob cared about every detail and treated our family with kindness, patience and understanding, providing comfort and reassurance throughout the entire process. We are sincerely grateful for his dedication and heartfelt support. Because of Jacob's efforts, our loved one received a beautiful and meaningful farewell that we will never forget. The family of George K. Dersch

I can not say enough nice things about the staff of Steverson Hamlin Hilbish Funeral Homes. After…read morelosing my mother recently to chemotherapy overdose, although the doctor won't admit it nor even cares the process of planning the funeral was easy and stress free. Matt Pierson is a godsend and provided a wonderful service at the Church in Astatula. I would not hesitate in an instant to recommend this funeral home. Matt and John were compassionate and understanding in our time of need. The services weren't as expensive as I thought they would be. For those of you on the fence about pre planning get off the fence!!! Go in and visit them and make arrangements. It will take an incredible burden off the family in doing what you wish for your final arrangements. I always thought it was taboo and something a bit odd since I used to sell pre arranged funeral planning. Now after having to deal with the costs and the sudden death of my mother I can see the reasoning behind planning ahead. Matt and the team at Steverson Hamlin and Hilbish were top notch......

Hillcrest ripped me off…read more They did a good job burying my dad in Sept 2018. In February, we spent thousands on a headstone we were told would arrive in "3-5 months max." We are Jewish and it's our custom to have a headstone "unveiling" about a year after the funeral. Leaving extra wiggle room, family planned to fly in for the unveiling ceremony in October as their rep advised us that would be "more than enough time." In mid June --FOUR MONTHS LATER -- we got a nervous phone call from a woman named Brenda who cheerily explained that the rep who took our money and sold us the headstone had left the company at some point and there was some "confusion" and our order had gotten lost in the shuffle and never ordered (even though they charged our credit card). She explained she was eager to put our order in now but that I'd need to approve a proof. We approved it and discussed w/ her that she would contact the granite/stone manufacturer to ask them to rush it and would get back to us. At this point, we'd been very patient and polite. After all, mistakes do happen and we could still make it by the October unveiling. On June 28, Brenda from Hillcrest wrote back these exact words: "Let me ask my granite manufacturer if they can make this and deliver within the next two months" When I heard nothing, I followed up on July 3. When I still had heard nothing, I followed up on July 8. Nothing. On July 16, she simply told me "I don't usually get any updates from the granite manufacturer until they are ready to ship. But I will try to keep you up to date if I get notice from them. " On August 8, I requested an update.. Then-- almost another full month after her July 16 email-- on August 12, Brenda contacted me to say this: "I spoke to the manufacturer who is making your marker. They pulled the order and informed me the blue pearl stone you ordered is an imported stone. They also let me know that it can be up to 150 days to complete a marker using imported stone, this is to allow time to ship the stone into the country. The 3 month time frame I based my estimate on would be if the marker had been made using a domestic stone. " We had NEVER been told we ordered anything special or international. The rep in February never told us when he took our money--but he did say up to 5 months max (150 days).. In her June calls and emails, Brenda clearly wrote over and over about 2 months and 3 months-- I saved everything. On June 28, she was calling them for info and to request priority rush-- Clearly she didn't really call anyone who looked at the order because all throughout the entire next month, Brenda never mentioned this at all.... So we have a company who LOST our pricey order but charged us the money and told us about it 4 months after-the-fact. Then promised to do something to try to speed it up-- but took nearly two more months just to figure out they can't speed it up AND it'll take even longer because it's an "international stone."

Though I have not been directly connected with any planning of the ceremonies, my family members have spoke highly of the ease the cemetery has made of the situation. They do their absolute best to make sure everything flows as seamless as possible while covering the family direct needs/wants for their beloved member being laid to rest that day. Though they have many ceremonies planned each day that are timed, it is important to know that you can speak up if some additional time is needed before the end of your time. It is simple just by a few words or taking your additional time needed by staying at the ceremony sight. They are very timely between the ceremony time and when the person or ashes are placed with there headstone for you to return to visit. Given that I have several more family members who are military members and/or spouses, we will be back in the upcoming years and I hope things remain as seamless.

The social worker gave me a list of funeral service vendors in that area. I called around and the prices and approaches were all over the place. A high quote with a discount for being in hospice? Ugh. I looked on Yelp and saw a recommendation by a friend that she thought Loomis was a professional and thoughtful organization. I could not have asked for better service and fee prices. - They were helpful and explained their fee and costs for death certificates over the phone. When my husband later died in the middle of the night, they responded quickly - Cremation fees were much less than those quoted by others on the list furnished by hospice. - They did not try to up sell, they even suggested I might want to complete the request via the web and conveniently pay at the same time if I did not feel like driving over there. - I am having a funeral service in another state. They were so kind and respectful on the phone and in person. - They provided the paperwork and documents I will need to have my husband interred in another state. - They had a catalog of urns and the prices were very reasonable and I know this as I had shopped around. Their location in Apopka seems small but most of the staff I spoke to were young and caring. In a time when I was stressed this was the easiest decision.
