They deserve it. I went to two other funeral homes in the area, and while both were perfectly pleasant and nice, it was Zac Clayton and his staff (everyone from the guy giving directions to the pallbearers, making sure everyone had buttonnieres, etc., to the young lady giving instructions to the cemetery workers (South Park Cemetery)) who a) never made us feel like we were pressured into 'buying up' to a 'better' model of casket or container; b) were totally - TOTALLY - transparent about prices and fees; c) took care to ensure that EVERY necessary detail was addressed (flowers, prayer cards, finding a priest who could perform a service at the funeral home when there was a schedule conflict with the church, etc.) either by Clayton or by the family; d) had pricing that was more than fair on the services and items needed for the burial; and e) were just all-around super nice, comforting, helpful, and made you feel like they were helping out family and friends that they had known for years. Honestly, do yourself a favor, shop around if you want to, but GO to these guys and give them a listen. You will be SO GLAD afterwards that you did. BTW - everything about the service was lovely - the flowers (done in house by Clayton), the service by our borrowed priest (thank you Father Jim!), the slideshow of photos and music (photos / music supplied by family, edited into presentation by Clayton and displayed flawlessly by the Clayton folks on their big screen using their a/v equipment. Cannot thank or recommend these guys enough. Thank you Clayton (and especially Zac) for all you did for our mother and our family.

Clayton Funeral Home and Crematory provided funeral services for my husband. I highly…read morerecommend them because the services provided were exceptional. Mr. John Clayton and his staff were so professional, so compassionate and so sensitive to our needs, making a difficult time less stressful.

I cannot thank Mr. Clayton and his staff enough, for assisting us in having a dignified and beautiful home going service for my husband. Diana Merritte

They did a good job and were very kind and cognizant of my feelings throughout the process including after my uncle's passing. They made very clear all costs, which I deem reasonable, and didnt have any hidden costs or surprises.

I do recommend this funeral service.

Every time you asked her a question it was with a bark. I would never use this place again or recommend it to anyone. Go anywhere else but here. They never announced what to do before going to the burial. Never announced what was going to happen next. Just expected us to do it. We were saying are last goodbyes at the coffin and she is like excuse me and taking the flowers. Just very very inconsiderate. During your time of grief the last thing you need is to have to deal with someone being rude that you are paying for services rendered.

And that is exactly what Claire Brothers Funeral Home did for our family. They beautifully executed my father's homegoing ceremony. They allowed my dad's last "hoorah" to be an accurate depiction of who my father was. And for that, I am deeply grateful that we decided to have our funeral service at Claire Brothers. From the service logistics/arrangement, to the printing of the fliers (going beyond what was expected), to the slideshow, and to the selection of the pianist and psalmist, we were just greatly pleased. I would definitely recommend them to others who are seeking a professional funeral service that allows, yet magnifies the feel of warm intimacy.

Inside, the venue was very spacious, with high ceilings, large doors, and artwork throughout with tasteful lighting and a consistent style throughout the venue. The private rooms, with their artwork and lighting, provided a peaceful setting for small groups to gather and share memories, fostering a sense of reflection. Even though the attendance exceeded the expected 75 people, the venue handled the larger crowd well the reception area was huge, with space for many to sit and enjoy the food. The foyer area became somewhat crowded at times due to the locations of the reception and service areas, causing a slight bottleneck. Even with the large crowd the venue had a feeling of stillness and quiet, offering areas for both communal gathering and private reflection. The restrooms were fully stocked with amenities like napkins, towels, and mouthwash. Parking was adequate, even with the overflow crowd. The staff provided excellent service. The doorman was attentive, and staff were readily available to assist guests. Really well done and proper service for an excellent young man.
