Recently my wife's mother passed away at a nursing home in Oswego. Her mother had been in Florida…read moreuntil recently and was there not quite two years. We needed a funeral director that was local and she reached out to Dowdle funeral home. Adrian was there to help in our time of need. We also needed to transfer her mothers prepaid funeral planning services that we did in Florida, to make matters more stressful and complicated, but Adrian and his team took care of everything which was a great relief to our family. We were very impressed and comforted with their service and would highly recommend them to any family in need. Thank you The DeSantis family

Overall my grandfathers services were very nice. The casket was beautiful, he looked great in his…read moresuit, and the facilities were very nice the days of the viewing and funeral. However, there were things here and there that really didn't go well the during the process. During the services, the clergy they provided called my grandfather by the wrong name, and she spent minutes throughout the ceremony shuffling through her binder randomly picking out readings that didn't really flow at all. We truly felt they called her about two hours before the services and she had no time to prepare. We were also pretty rushed during the carrying of the casket to the burial site from the hearse. We weren't given clear directions on how to carry or how to lineup, and even though we had eight pallbearers picked out the gentleman from the funeral home decided to help carry the casket from the back. They were very nice and helpful to my grandmother which was important to us but I hope they make sure they know the name of man in the casket the next time they start the services.
