Our father's viewing was at this business. The ambience of this funeral home was very sparse and…read moreplain with ample parking. The interior gave a 90s vibe overall. I usually see peppermints and tissues strewn around most funeral home, but this place didn't seem to have them available. There is also no waiting/family/kitchen area on the main floor. Families usually need a place to have cookies, take a break, or drink coffee during sad times. When we arrived with coffee cakes for the family, the funeral director told us that there was no place for cakes here and that he would just shove them downstairs. I though that was a little weird. We also spent many hours making a video/collage that was to be shown on a television in the back because the funeral director told us over the phone that we couldn't make picture boards, but when we arrived at the funeral home, there were three huge picture boards. The funeral director then apparently tried to plug in our thumb drive and it suddenly didn't work with his system. He then just kept showing the same ten pictures sent in from a church on repeat. I thought this was also weird. The third thing that struck me odd about this funeral home was the rushed nature of the viewing and the lay-out. Have you ever seen people kneeling in front of a loved one at a viewing, only to be interrupted and tapped on the shoulder by a funeral director to "move along"? I never have. Our father also looked terrible for the viewing. It looked like they pulled all of his teeth out and suddenly his face was very narrow, which was quite unsettling to all, especially the children. I know that my wife's step-mother was in shock over a sudden death, and this may have just been the closest funeral home to her. I have never seen this type of unprofessional behavior in my life.

He goes above and beyond to make sure your loved one gets the proper arrangements. He charges fair prices. I am so thankful for this place because I am a college student and couldn't afford the prices these other places charged (even for cremation). He even went as far as not charging me to put my moms ashes into the necklace I had bought from Amazon. He also has a very good selection of urns for a fair price!

He comforted my family and ensured us he would take of my lived one like it was his own. Spencer made this process so easy. He is God sent and deserves all that he gets and more. Words can not express my gratitude to him. One day maybe I will meet him in person and give him the biggest hug a person can give. WITH EVERY FIBER OF MY BEING I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU! I would recommend everyone in Butler County use him.

My family is from Aliquippa/Hopewell and this is the place everyone uses. The staff are very, very kind and attentive which is what you need and want during a time of mourning and saying goodbye. Very professional. The decor is a little dated but it's comfortable and helps with the healing process because the receiving rooms feel like living areas in a grandmother's house.

The house itself is beautiful & it's surrounded by pretty trees. The attendants and personnel are extremely professional but also very caring. The makeup person does a great job as well. They also have a nice little chapel area where we actually had the funeral services for my grandparents. The bathrooms are also very nice- seems strange but I can always appreciate a good bathroom! They also go the extra mile & make a slide show DVD of your loved one if u provide them with pictures. The DVD makes a beautiful & comforting keepsake. Overall I would highly recommend Simons.

I have no idea who he was supposed to look like...definitely not my Dad. And his hair looked like he just got out of bed!The unfriendly personnel offered cold respect to family and friends. The Pastor we chose had a lovely service before the presentation of Military Honors. At that point, they wheeled the casket in to the chapel area which felt very disrespectful to my Dad. This was not done in a ceremonial fashion and destroyed the ambiance established by the Pastor. Why not have the casket in the chapel during the eulogy waiting for the Honors? There was no honor or respect. It was awful!

My time with them was top notch!! They were kind, caring, and compassionate. They were able to cremate my mother on site, without sending her elsewhere and also filled our urns we purchased online. The room we rented was beautiful and they had everything we needed. They worked as a team, and answered all my questions as well as did a lot of paper work for me. They were very helpful. Their prices were very competitive, and I felt it was a great value. They handled everything we needed. Definitely go to Teolis for your family's funeral and cremation needs.

I was pleased with what I saw, as much as one can be pleased in such circumstances. The building is beautiful and has ramps for those that need them. There is ample parking but it is on a one way street parallel to Ohio River Boulevard. The room was arranged beautifully. Employees were available but were not obtrusive. They could sense when someone might need a little help inside the viewing but they didnt hover. Everything was perfect both days. We knew where to be and what to do, accompanying our friend to the church and later to the cemetery. Syka struck just the right balance of professionalism and compassion. It's a sad time. Not everyone is experienced with the rituals that may be part of the entire funeral experience. My friend had a beautiful funeral. But I am sad she is gone.

When that spouse died in 2024, Burket-Truby was responsive and kind. Both Sean and Shea helped us in the first difficult days after the death, as we formed a decision to have a memorial service several months later. When we changed some of the preplanned arrangements, Burket-Truby kept up and gave us excellent advice. We ended up with a fairly complex plan for a memorial service, and Burket-Truby handled their part promptly and beautifully. The interior of their funeral home is lovely and comforting, and they cover every detail. I highly recommend Burket-Truby Funeral Home.
