This is an excellent funeral business. Joe Keffer is very compassionate towards grieving families…read more We used his company recently for my Uncle's funeral. He really valued that my Uncle was a veteran. He went above and beyond to allow my Aunt to view my Uncle prior to the funeral. I can't believe how natural my Uncle looked. What a great job he did. I was impressed by everything. He helped keep it so we didn't have to do much. I really liked that he took care of a lot so we didn't have to. I can't thank them enough. Joe and his team are good people. Don't hesitate to use them they are very professional.

There are not enough words to express our sincere gratitude for Etzweiler Funeral Home. The…read moreprofessionalism, empathy, comfort, and flexibility were all highlights of this experience. From the moment we contacted Etzweiler, we were treated as family. They were prompt in every communication and generous with our arrangements. We worked with Bob and Shannon extensively. The flowers that Shannon ordered (through Royers Flowers) were absolutely breathtaking. She also recorded video (per our request) which was professional and promptly uploaded to my dad's Tribute page. Bob was excellent as well. He facilitated the transfer of my dad across state lines during COVID. He dressed my dad to the nines, and presented him so beautifully. The staff here is not only gifted, but they take extreme pride in what they do. Never did we imagine that we would be in this position during COVID. The service we received from Etzweiler was unparalleled, and we cannot thank them enough.

My family used Heffner Funeral Chapels & Crematory for the first time in 1982 when my grandmother…read morepassed away. They did such a fantastic job that when other members of the family became ill or died suddenly, we would immediately contact Heffner to make arrangements. When my dad entered hospice care in April and we had to face the fact that he would never get better, we once again contacted Heffner. We selected his coffin and flowers arrangements and went over his life's history with a staff member. Knowing that my dad served in the Army and worked for US AID, he was offered full military honors. We were quite appreciative of that. However, after much discussion with my parents, they opted only for the flag over his casket and declined the rest of the traditional honors. My parents wanted a more intimate Catholic Mass and burial with family and friends only. My dad passed away on August 16, 2016 at 2:30am. Even at that early hour, two members of Heffner came dressed in full suit and tie to collect my dad. They treated his remains with the utmost care and respect and had a flag ready to drape over his body. On the day of my dad's funeral (Tuesday August 23, 2016), Heffner's staff worked tirelessly to guide, seat, offer condolences, and hand out tissues, prayer books, and keepsakes to our 300+ guests at their funeral home, at St. Jospeh's Catholic Church, and at Susquehanna Memorial Gardens. Every guest commented on how peaceful my dad looked, how beautiful the flowers were, how dignified the whole day was, and how wonderfully Heffner's staff catered to everyone. The Heffner family has been in the funeral business for over 100 years. They believe in their services and offer a 100% money back guarantee. I highly recommend them and would use their services again when it is time to say good-bye to another loved one.
