The day after she passed they contacted us to let us know that she was now under their care. An appointment was set up and we met with April a few days later. She was understanding and patient with us. Since my mothers burial wishes were planned in advance, it was a fairly easy process. She did not try to up sale us and helped us to understand the paperwork and process going forward. Every time I reached out to her via email, she responded quickly. Corey was also great help and was professional and courteous. If I'm ever in this type of situation again, my first call will be to Heartland. So fortunate to have found such a kind, patient and understanding funeral home.

I looked for cremation services and Heartland had the easiest website to understand and by far the best pricing. Other local cremation services were 4 times more expensive. When I called Heartland, my call was answered immediately, the process took under two minutes, and although they offered to meet us in person, they were able to simply email me the documents to fill out and sign. The documents were easy to fill out, and it was done. This was so seamless and easy at a time when we were grieving and didn't need any more drama. Thank you, Andrew, and your team at Heartland!!

When they finally sent the paperwork to authorize cremation the format was an image file the size of a small photograph. It should have been a PDF file. When grieving a loved one we did not need to be figuring out how to resize a document to be readable let alone to sign and complete. That was our last straw before switching to a different funeral service. When they did finally transfer our loved to the other funeral home they failed to return their belongings. We had to keep calling them to get the belongings. We quickly learned of other families who had poor experiences with Grateful Gatherings as well. Do not use this company. I highly recommend Lawrence Chapel Oaks.
