Jon Cody and the staff at Buchanan and Cody were extremely flexible and were able to help us make everything mom hoped for happen. Jon was there immediately, when we needed him most and explained everything clearly and accurately. He worked with Mom's church so that her ideas could be realized there as well. Mom's funeral was, without a doubt, a celebration and we owe it all to Buchanan and Cody's caring and capable staff. When all was said and done, mom had a positive balance left and Jon Cody made sure it went to a charity of her choice. No stone was left unturned. My siblings and I greatly appreciate everything Jon and the staff did for us. Tony Thompson, Denver Co.

They communicated brilliantly, always answered our questions thoroughly and promptly. The service itself was amazing as they stood right next to our family. My mother looked absolutely beautiful and they were very respectful. The gravesite was beautifully presented and how the huge amount of flowers made it ahead of the family still astonished us. The real mountaintop e Luis when HPW drove my Mother to the farm one last time. Powerful. They were so sweet.

Steve Hines and his staff are not only professionally proficient in the treatment of our loved one who passed, but also extremely caring to everyone in our family during our grief. They did a fantastic job with all the preparations, and have gone the extra mile in helping us through some of the financial and legal matters required of us at this time.
