Deeply Disappointed - Unprofessional and Misleading Experience…read more Donahue Funeral Home was hired with handling the services and honoring a dear friend and loved one, and the experience was nothing short of appalling. We had a beautiful, custom-designed flower arrangement created specifically for the service. Not only did they fail to bring it to the church, but when we asked about it, they lied--claiming the church only allows a certain number of flowers. When we sought clarification, they admitted that wasn't true and instead said there was a "limit on flower transportation." Is this something families are ever told? We spent money on something that never made it to the service--money that could have gone to charity. To make matters worse, the funeral director was confrontational and astonishingly unprofessional. In the middle of this sensitive moment, he said, "I know the deceased very well--I just bought his house." How distasteful and inappropriate can you get? This experience was disrespectful, misleading, and completely unacceptable. If you value honesty, professionalism, and dignity for your loved one, look elsewhere.

Sometimes "Yay, I'm a Fan" seems an odd thing to say. Like, say, when talking about a cemetery…read more Hey, I don't make up what Yelp labels the ratings, I just call 'em like I see 'em. I grew up right nearby this place, and have many fond (yes, really) memories of playing "Ghost in the Graveyard" (a form of tag) amongst the stones, as well as joining in with the other kids searching through chunks of the freshly broken earth of the graves for 'gemstones' (tiny garnets and quartz, basically). So, what; makes this cemetery 4 stars, my friends? In a word: History. In the oldest part of the cemetery (near the corner of Argyle & Wynnewood Roads) are graves dating back to 1765, and within the cemetery's boundaries (only two blocks wide) lies at least one veteran of every war fought since the inception of the United States except the Mexican - American war. There's also the old Dutch Schoolhouse, a one-room stone building built in 1787. In the mid 1800s its' basement was used to store bodies over the cold winter when ground could not be dug. Families paid $0.25 a month to "store" their loved one's remains. Each year around Halloween for the past five years or so there is a "Haunted Walk" at the Cemetery and Schoolhouse hosted by members of the St. Paul's Lutheran Church congregation (co-located across the street from the cemetery on Wynnewood at Athens). The grounds are open to the public from "dawn to dusk". There is only one road that parallels Wynnewood and spans Athens - Argyle. Caretakers are generally friendly, as long as you behave yourselves. The LM PD often park nearby to do paperwork so anyone up to mischief is pretty quickly caught. I enjoy walking this cemetery. It's a well kept space with kind staff and some pretty interesting stories to tell and things to see. Be gentle, and it will be gentle back.

Johnandrew Bellner was just awesome and so accommodating of all the questions and concerns my sisters and I had. He was so helpful with items we needed for the cemetery. Our service was at church, when it came time for our final goodbye, it was handled just lovingly by Johnandrew!We went to view our mom on Friday afternoon, we were not rushed and made to feel so comfortable. My mom's makeup was just remarkable, she looked so natural, like she was sleeping. Our entire experience was a ten star review! Johnandrew was so comforting at this sad time, and made us all feel so special. The two gentlemen who came to pick my mom up, so courteous, pleasant and professional. They gave my sisters and I time with our mom before they transported her to the funeral home. The entire Logan staff treated my mom and all of us with kindness, compassion and respect. God bless them all! Mary, JoanMarie, Lorraine and Susan

They were friendly, organized, compassionate, respectful of one's budget, and very helpful in writing excellent obituaries. The home is very clean and orderly.

I highly recommend working with the great staff at the Logan-Videon Funeral Home in Broomall.

We called Rodger, on a Sunday afternoon, and he was as always wonderful, respectful, and caring. We had made pre-arrangements and everything went very smoothly. Because of COVID, we had a very small gathering, Rodger worked to ensure live streaming was available. Then, because dad was a veteran, he arranged for a graveside ceremony that was, well, the best. Throughout the process he and his staff were the best, professionals and compassionate and responsive. I give them the highest recommendation I can.

All the logistical items were clear, and he took the time to explain everything in detail. Rodger definitely took our feelings and emotions seriously and that was very much appreciated.

John was so very gentle with me. Everything went so easily and smoothly. I felt in very capable and kind hands. Within a day or two, after I had made the arrangements and left, John contacted me because I had left a ring on my mother's finger, and he asked me if I wanted it. Also, my requests around the ashes were a bit unusual and he was able to make sure everything I wished for was accomplished. Now, a year later, I have received a lovely card recognizing the one year anniversary of my loss. I am so touched this funeral home's sensitivity and kindness. I can't recommend them enough!
