The Casillas' are the definition of "family business". They care, communicate well and will try their best to make your family's service sincerely unique and meaningful. I used to fear death and mourned for a very long time. This family taught me to respect the death process and to treat a persons soul as if it's present even though their earthly body had expired.... If you've seen the movie My Girl... this funeral home is kinda like that. It's NOT a giant corporation with a script of greed. They treat each case uniquely as the individual. That's rare these days! This is the one business of its type that I know that bothers to learn the first names of the decedents relatives. If you're an emotional person or accepting a death is difficult for you, I recommend this funeral home. The Casillas kids leaned from a young age to assist the grieving in time of need it's second nature to them which will put your mind at ease. Promise.

John Kenny was introduced to me by one of my clients, a first time home buyer who, came to me after…read moreworking with John to get his credit repaired. The buyer was totally qualified after John repaired his credit. In addition he was coached by John and was a happy camper once we closed his loan. He owed it all to Credit Cure of California who repaired his credit and advised him on maintaining a superior credit score. This buyer was the first of several John referred to me for their home loans, and I must admit a referral from John means the borrower now has good credit and understands how to maintain it. I referred a client who was under contract to buy a new home, whose score was drastically reduced by a collection from a cable company. She did not even know it was there but it made her score so low that her loan rate would have increased to the point she could no longer afford the home she has contracted to buy. I sent her to John and within a week or so he had that unsubstantiated collection removed from her credit and her score returned to the high score where it belonged and we were able to close her loan on time with a nice low rate! A friend of mine applied for an apartment and found out an apartment complex he lived in 4 years ago had entered a collection of $3,000+ in his report...the friend had never been late with his rent. The building had changed hands several times and the collection agency bought the account from the original owner. It smelled like fraud but the collection agency didn't want to remove the account. It took a good month but John stayed on top of it and them like the Ninja credit guru he is and got the collection removed and my friend's credit to the point he was accepted into the complex he wanted with interior hook ups for washer and dryer! John also got him a new Master Card which was a bonus! My friend's life was changed as were the lives of several people who were able to buy their homes thanks to John Kenny. I'd recommend John to anyone who needs help with their credit scores/credit reports...he knows how to resolve issues and dramatically improve scores. He fights for you like no one else could because he knows the laws and the ins and outs of the credit reporting systems.
