Both of the services very different, one preplanned for our 93 year old father and the unexpected loss of a 24 year old family member. The caring and compassion of the staff, before, during and after sets Gunderson apart from the others. Both services were beautiful and tailored to each of them. Everyone there is so helpful and friendly. We as a family would never go anywhere else. Thank you Gunderson!!!

My father recently passed away, and we chose Foster's for his cremation. Bryan Foster, Dawn Adam's,…read moreand all of the staff at Foster's that we spoke to were very kind, compassionate, and made what was a very painful experience feeling a little better. First, we met with Mr. Foster personally to discuss my dad's wishes and arrangements. He didn't rush us. He answered all of our questions, and he shared stories of his own that showed us he understood our grief and that he was there for us. Dawn Adam's checked on us during my dad's viewing and made sure we had everything that we needed. Secondly, Foster's also has MUCH more affordable options than the other funeral homes in the area. I know cost isn't everything, especially when it comes to saying goodbye to a loved one, but Foster met all of our family's needs at a cost which we could afford. Nobody ever wants to need funeral or cremation, but if you do, Foster's will treat you and your loved ones with dignity, respect, and care.

These cemeteries were established in the mid-1800's to serve the Catholic populations of the St. Raphael, Holy Redeemer, St. Patrick and St. James parishes in the downtown area. Today, Resurrection Cemetery serves the Catholic population of all the parishes in the Madison area, as well as former residents who have relocated out of town but wish to be buried back in Madison. The Cemetery is centrally located at Regent Street and Speedway in Madison, and is over 40 acres in size. Buried within Resurrection Cemetery are many of the pioneer citizens of Madison, as well as Bishop William O'Connor, the first Bishop of Madison, who died in 1973, and Bishop Robert Morlino, the fourth bishop of Madison, who died in 2018. Comedian Chris Farley is also buried here.

This one is a beautiful small stone building designed in a very lovely, ornate art deco style, built just after the turn of the century. The interior is comforting and charming, with sweet poems/verses (non-religious) carved into the white marble walls, and floral stained glass windows. The employee who escorted us inside to place my cousin's urn was very nice, quietly friendly, and supportive. I felt good about that being her final resting place. I've never priced such services before, but their rates seemed more than reasonable.

One stone had sunk…read moreso far into the ground, we had trouble finding it, when it was pulled up it was chipped and pieces were missing. They dug it up, reset it and made a new memorial for this person. Combining the old stone with the new stone in one setting turned out beautiful. One gravestone only had the last name of our relatives and they added their first names to the stone, the names look like they have always been there. The 3rd repair involved lifting two tablet stones and resetting them on concrete. The cement work and stones look perfect. PECHMANNS ARE PERFECTIONISTS. Their work sets the bar for other monument companies to try to live up to. I highly recommend them for their quality, experience and dependability.
