Stark Funeral Professionals provided a level of compassion, respect, and professionalism that I…read moredidn't think was possible in such a difficult time. I contacted them with uncertainty and emotional exhaustion, and from the very first conversation, Mike treated me with care, patience, and understanding. They welcomed us warmly, walked us through everything step by step, explained the timing, helped us select urns, and finalized everything smoothly in just one visit. Mike even went above and beyond by offering to cover the cost of transferring my father's remains--an act of generosity and kindness I will never forget. I can't express enough how grateful I am for their empathy and grace. In a time of grief, they were a true source of comfort.

My sister died May 6, 2025. I made an appointment at Merkle funeral home (S. Dixie) for 2:30 pm on…read moreMay 9, 2025. We (my brother and my niece) arrived at 2:25 pm. We entered and no one was around. I said "You-Hoo?" and no one answered. My niece opened the first available door and saw a woman in a black skirt suit with her blouse untucked and in bare feet standing over an open casket. This woman came out, still disheveled and in bare feet and greeted us. (We should have left then but they had already picked up the body of my sister. She led us to an elevator, which had a huge bag of garbage on it, and took us to a downstairs meeting room. Among other things, she was not prepared for our appointment. She kept leaving to get things she needed. I wanted just a plain cremation because we were planning to inter her elsewhere in the summer. Many times, she said that "they" could help with that. She seemed to be interested in making more business. The funeral home wrote what I believe was an AI generated obituary after I had given her a detailed statement that I wrote. The saleswoman told us that the home would call when they received the death certificates. They did not. I called and had to pick them up at another inconvenient location. Finally, they did deliver my sister's remains, re-emphasizing that they would like to help us with her internment. Deli8vering my sister was the wrong time to ask for more business. I had to write the real obituaries and submitted them to the Monroe News and the Toledo Blade. A couple of weeks later they delivered an "advertising mug" and a corrected obituary. This certainly was too late, and the mug was in poor taste. Just because Merkle Funeral Home has several locations does not mean they are good at what they do. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE!

While my mother had said she had bought a pre-paid cremation package we could not find anything in her apartment for that. I called Husband after checking Yelp and Shaquita was super helpful with letting me know what I needed to do, cost, and time frame with even just the first call. The next day they were able to get her body from the medical examiner's office after I identified her that morning and then my brother and I met with Kimberly later that afternoon to take care of all the paper work. She told us what they would take care of, broke out the costs for us, and gave us a time frame to expect to be able to pick up my mom's ashes and the death certificates. They called me the next week within the time frame Kimberly had given us that everything was ready for pick-up.
