My husband and I went to our neighbor's funeral service today. He passed 13 days ago. Normally I…read moredon't view the body because lately, the past 18 years, people have been looking grey or not their normal complexion. I have even gone so far as to tell my family I wanted a closed casket service. When entering the sanctuary I braced myself to see a ghost of the gentle giant I remembered, but I was pleasantly surprised that he looked as if he was just sleeping. He looked great. Smoot funeral services did an awesome job. I'm not sure about their prices, but the quality of their work is surprisingly comforting.

I cannot recommend Shaw & Davis highly enough. After a friend recommended them for my brother's…read morecremation, I found their services to be far above my expectations. From the very first phone call, Mr. Kip Shaw was AMAZING. As someone coming from out of town, I truly appreciated the utmost respect he showed me. ​The pricing was fantastic and, more importantly, honest--the initial quote was exactly what I paid, with no surprises. Mr. Kip made me feel at ease during every interaction, and the entire staff was extremely pleasant. They took wonderful care of my brother and made a difficult process much easier. If you are local or from out of town, please trust Shaw & Davis with your loved ones.

My Daughter passed in Jan, I gave this funeral home a picture of my daughter and was told she would…read morelook her very best. Her hair was not fixed the way it was in the photo, they only put foundation on her not full make like she was in photo. Her clothes looked like they was just thrown on her. I would not recommend this funeral home to anyone. I was so heartbroken over losing my daughter and to see her not even close to looking the way she made herself was heartbreaking as well. Her service was rushed, family and friends was rushed out of the funeral home due to them closing at 7. Please DO NOT use this funeral home.

This was a very deplorable experience. My mother died and was being sent to another state for the…read morefuneral/ burial and was supposed to be shipped out on a Sunday. The day before the wake we were still trying to track her down to send her money and get my mothers body released. If you love your loved ones, please skip this funeral home. My sister and I had to polish my mothers nails, fix her hair, and makeup. For a grieving loved one this is not the place you to send someone you love. Also, my mother's suit was a cream color and it was tarnished by them. Seriously. I don't waste my time writing a review for ok service. I just want to warn everyone about this home. Their facilities are similar to something of a horror movie from the 1800's. BEWARE This was THE WORST EXPERIENCE EVER

When I requested references to arrange my father's home going services, I was told this funeral…read morehome went above and beyond. I was not disappointed. They were very professional, efficient, dedicated, and caring. The funeral director, the limo driver, the office staff, even the motorcade security all took this task as if it were their own family. That is how they made me feel and that was my experience with the Diehl-Whittaker team. They strove for excellence and they made us feel like family. We are grateful to Diehl-Whittaker for the care and expertise they lent in facilitating this day for our dear departed Father.

I recently read the response of Diehl-Whittaker Funeral Home to the concerns that was expressed…read moreabout the home going of Walter L Ford Jr. if I could give a half a star that's what they would get because at least he made it to the gravesite. I think it's awful funny that after the complaint on yelp and them trying to get the comment resented ,all of a sudden they're open to have at least 50 people to attend funerals of loved ones and family members. Since Mc Nabb went out of business, our family has used Diehl-Whittier on a regular basis. The buck STOPS here, I will never endorse their services for anyone that I care about. We come from a very large and extended family. when asked where do you want your loved one to go it's Definitely not Diehl Whittaker. I truly feel that they are insensitive to peoples feelings,they arein a business to give the deceased a proper burial or cremation but they need to remember to have empathy and compassion for the family. It's not all about the money and that's what it seems like what happened with my brother. You are in the business to bury humans and not treat people if they were a cat ,dog ,bird whatever. The Bible says I must forgive in order for my heavenly father forgive me. I forgive the staff of Diehl Whitaker and I will not call names, you know who you are. As for using your service or recommending your service again I (we) choose NOT to. There are many other funeral homes in the Columbus area. Maybe some sensitivity classes would be warranted and some additional training. Thank you Karla Brown

As promised, I am sharing what has been going on with my 89 year old Mother. I'm not sure if it was…read morebecause I contacted Ohio Embalmers and Funeral Directors by phone and they reached out to Caliman Funeral Services or because of my previous review or because my Mother has contacted them several times these past two months, but they have refunded her money. I'm still not understanding one thing. If she prepaid for her funeral service, it was supposed to be earning interest which meant as prices climbed her funeral, as she ordered or requested it should have been fully paid for, but she was informed that if she died today with the money she had paid, it would not have been enough to cover the full cost. Why not? We are looking into other avenues to make sure when the time comes, the money is available and she will have the type of going home service she wishes to have. I'd like to add, they did a wonderful job with my Father's service in 2006.
