My dad passed recently and had pre-arranged with Morgan Memorial Home in Savoy, IL. Our family met…read morewith Jim, one of Steve Morgan's many fine directors, who stepped us through the preliminary decisions. After arranging our visitation and graveside services, Jim kept in contact to ensure everything was moving forward satisfactorily. Dawn took over beginning with the visitation and was the model of care and efficiency, making sure all things were taken care of quickly. Even with a major foul up with the cemetery (see my review for Grandview Memorial Gardens), Dawn didn't blink an eye, but adapted calmly and made sure that was taken care of properly. It is never an easy time with losing a loved one, but I was certainly impressed that my worries did not extend to the arrangements my father had pre-planned with this professional organization.

My family used Morgan's Funeral Home after my mother-in-law passed away. In spite of their website…read moresaying they "customize" their services to fit your needs, my sister-in-law was told they offered no extra services, just simply the space. When she asked what types of practices other families had incorporated into their services, she was met with a very unhelpful, "Every one is different." When she pushed further, explaining she had never had to do this before, she was still met with the same response. When the day of the service came, they had reserved the space for a three hour service: two hours for a visitation, with a service following immediately after for one hour. When the service began, Morgan's was provided with a copy of the program; however, after the first speaker came up, they began trying to dismiss everyone until my sister-in-law told them they were not finished. In spite of reserving the space for 3 hours, they continually felt as if they were being pressured to get out. Beware if you use this service during such a difficult time in your life, that they do not provide you with the service or support one would expect during such a difficult time.

The most compassionate, patient and professional people to do business with, especially in such a…read moredifficult and stressful situation. We mostly worked with Jake, who was not only pleasant and kind, but also honest and gave excellent advice. My dear father abruptly and unexpectedly passed away, leaving our family with the dreadful decision-making and planning for a funeral. Fortunately, our father always being the frugal planner, had already prepaid for my parents' plots and funeral services in 2021. Him doing so saved us over $2,000 in funeral services money (!) the price went up that much in two years. Jake was so professional in helping us with the other minor decisions such as thank you notes, paperwork etc that it was painless and seamless. I found Jake to be very warm and has such a delightful personality. I can't imagine having to work in the funeral industry or dealing with sad or upset mourners. It can be such an emotional and financially devastating time. Jake was always available when we had questions. He was so patient when he was sitting with another client, and we arrived with my dad's funeral attire. He stepped away to greet us and was beyond patient and kind while my mom showed him piece by piece what she wanted dad to wear. I had to finally intervene as the poor guy was meeting with another client. But Jake was there with a smile and was allowing us as much time as we needed to make decisions and talk with him. The funeral services were arranged so beautifully and the room for the visitation was very impressive. The facility is very large and welcoming, and peaceful. We chose to have Dad's military honors funeral in the chapel at the cemetery which was so beautiful (with the help of American Legion Post 33 Honor Guard who did a respectful tribute). Jake and his team also were diligent to help gather the cards and flowers for us and kept everything secure til we were able to collect our belongings. Our family and guests were beyond impressed with the service from Ottawa Funeral Home. Thank you Jake and staff for making things so much simpler for us.
