We have only positive things to say about Stewart Baxter! We needed their services in March of…read more2024 and primarily worked with Mason. He was absolutely wonderful. He was pro-active with helping us and we never felt as if we were asking too much or were a bother. Along with him, every staff member was helpful, compassionate, and very accommodating to our needs. Every ask we had, was responded to quickly and they were so caring. Their after-care team was very helpful and we had no idea they even offered that service. The building is beautiful and we thought seating for 300 would be enough, but we ended up with some standing. Even with that, all attendees were able to see and hear the service with the TVs and they offered live streaming, which was a need for our family. With over 500 people at the visitation, they handled the traffic and made sure people were safe as they were parking. The owners were both there at different times, making sure everything was going well. If there were any issues, they were transparent to us and we didn't have to worry about anything. We are so thankful for the staff at Stewart Baxter and would highly recommend them to handle your family's needs at possibly the most difficult time in your life. The family of Kyla Klima

This is a review that no one ever wants to write…read more After a long illness, my father died recently. The end came somewhat more precipitously than anticipated, and we had only started to make plans for his passing. In fact, just a couple hours before he died I made my first phone call to Teahen and spoke with Brian. He requested some additional details, but before I had a chance to review the information he sent, I was informed of his death. The hospice nurse contacted Teahen, and despite the fact that we had not established any formal relationship with them, Brian arrived very soon afterwards to take my father to their beautiful and comforting funeral home. A couple days later, my family went to Teahen for our final visit before cremation, and to plan the memorial service. Since none of us expected such a sudden passing, we were mentally and emotionally unprepared to think about the details - and there are a lot of things to consider. Beth was exceptionally helpful and patient and generous with her time as she guided us through the planning process that day. We came away feeling relieved and reassured that a fitting memorial would be arranged. In addition, she was invaluable in taking care of certain administrative annoyances that we were happy to not have to worry about, such as informing Social Security and obtaining the death certificate. Over the course of the next several weeks, the plans for the memorial slowly began to take shape. Throughout the entire process, Beth was always available and immediately responsive. She put us in contact with different people whose services would be needed, such as the Hy-Vee florist that they regularly use. My wife is a former professional florist and manager of a floral shop, and she can attest to the high quality of the arrangements that were delivered to the church. Everything went remarkably smoothly, from beginning to end. We are grateful to Beth, Brian, and everyone at Teahen Funeral Home.
