I had a very good experience there at the new place on Whitley with Cindy. There is a man there named Kevin. If you are concerned about Cindy, ask for Kevin. He is a great person to handle your planning for funerals and stuff like that. I see other people wrote good things about Cindy. Also the new place is right downtown and is a homey place to visit. I had talked with Kevin at the funeral home, and he is very compassionate.

Wasn't a good experience. The week before my mom died I called them and asked what I needed to do--…read moreor could expect. I also asked about a pre-paid funeral policy she believed she had purchased. They said they would check for it-- and call me back the next day with information. Never heard back. A week later Hadley's picked my mom up from assisted living-- I kind of expected a phone call at that time. The next day I called-- and yep, they had her. They scheduled an appointment to meet two days later, again saying they would check on her policy. . When we arrived-- it was obvious she hadn't checked on policy-- left room several times to check here and there and call people. The rest of the meeting not much was presented-- I had to ask about clothes-- graveside- obituary. They took her handwritten obit-- I offered to type up and bring back-- but they said they would handle it. I wrote a check-- and we were gone. No graveside, but they said it would be several hundred more if we wanted to stand near grave when she was put in the ground. Without the extra money we had to stay at road. Well-- obit was not completed-- called several days later and they said they were still working on it. We were anxious to get in paper-- so I cancelled them and typed it up and submitted myself to newspaper. Took me less than 30 minutes. At cemetery-- cemetery staff let us get right up to the casket, and even gave us a few minutes. No need for an extra fee. Later we checked with Smiths in Exeter if she had pre-paid there -- and was just mistaken. They were wonderful-- gave us numbers to call with state insurance commission to check on a policy. Went out of their way with suggestions. And we were able to find it as just a regular life insurance policy-- although she was sure it was held by Hadley's. It was a simple for Hadley's. We had church service with no casket-- no viewing. But a bit frustrating how little they did -- didn't go an inch out of their way for anything. We won't be using them again.

In the beginning Yost and Webb was my second choice. About two days after I signed the contract…read morewith the People's Funeral Home, they called and said that they forgot to add a service on the contract and that they have to increase the price by about a thousand dollars. I did not have a choice but to go with Yost and Webb, but I am so glad I did. Yost and Webb delivered a simple yet beautiful service. They accommodated all my requests and even provided extra flowers. They even returned the necklace my mother was wearing when she died, something that we were not aware of. Thanks to their honesty, that necklace is now with my brother. I give them 5 stars for affordable high quality service. Julius

She answered all of our questions and took the time to explain everything in detail.

I sure recommend Angie to anyone that need their services for their loved ones.

We had made a slide show and someone always made sure it was on when people were their to view.
