I randomly discovered Newcomer Funeral Home while attending a service of a relative of one of my…read moreclose friends. This funeral home took care of Jackie and her family and that was a huge plus. RIP Gloria! As a result of my positive interaction with them and how they ran a great service, I did more research, went back and talked to Adam, Kim and Sue later that day. All three were SUPER-helpful during an emotional time for me and my friends. As someone looking to finalize my living will plans and pick out a funeral home, my intuition told me to connect with them and this was the perfect opportunity--I had it on my to-do list for a year. I'm excited to talk to John in the future regarding my situation. I highly recommend Newcomer for anyone looking to assist with their funeral needs! They have a Grove City location, but my review is for the Powell location. Both locations are easily accessible to I-270 and other main roads. Again, figuring out which funeral home to use is a huge portion of the battle!

Their availability, patience, exceptional level of care and direction were invaluable to us throughout this process. Their efforts brought us comfort when we needed it most. I highly recommend without hesitation Newcomer Powell if you find yourself in need of this type of assistance. You won't find a more compassionate group who are truly committed to making the journey through the process as easy as possible.

We interned my mother in the columbarium in November 2025. There is still not a death date on her marker. I have made several calls without any resolution. I was able to reach someone on 29 June and she told me she would investigate and take care of it. I haven't heard anything more. Several more calls have been unsuccessful at reaching anyone who has any information and no one will return my calls. I sent an email to the General Manager last week, still no response. The burial was prepaid, so they have their money. Unfortunately, my father is also interred there - 20 years ago when it was owned by Schoedinger. Think twice about using this cemetery. They are a "partner" of Everstory. So much for "devoted to family service" by their leadership.

Friendly staff, clear & simple pricing, beautiful grounds…read more Buying plots for my family never crossed my mind until recently when we lost a child. Having to find a funeral home and a cemetery in such a short amount of time is not easy to do. We thought getting a plot would be a simple thing to do but found that cemeteries are very busy and you need an appointment. We visited a few cemeteries in the area and were disappointed by the lack of customer service and outrageous prices. We had heard that one didn't need to be Catholic to be buried here, and after stopping in for a visit we found that this was accurate information. The only stipulation that they had was that a religious symbol needs to be on the marker or headstone. For example praying hands, angels, etc. We loved the transparent price sheet. It was a few pages long, covered everything and even included a check sheet on what you need to do after a loved one has passed away. The prices here were about a quarter of the cost compared to other cemeteries near by. The staff was compassionate, caring, and very kind. We were given a run down of prices, lots available and shown options for markers and headstones. We were also chauffeured around the property. They made the process so simple and easy. They even offered us a payment plan so we didn't have to pay for everything all at once. The cemetery is beautiful. There are lots of trees and flowers. The main office was just built a few years ago and is very nice. We were told that there is enough land to last them for 100 years and this is the fastest growing cemetery in Columbus. We were impressed on every aspect of our visit here. I would highly recommend this place because of the affordable prices, customer service and the beautiful grounds.

Craig Hungler did not record my son's funeral as promised. As I was unable to attend for personal…read morereasons, this was my last chance for closure. His negligence when operating the new video equipment (that he received no training on) resulted in no video being provided to me. Schoedinger funeral services did not train their employees properly and Craig Hungler lied to me about the fact that he was the reason for the video malfunction. Irresponsible actions like this should be enough to steer you away. No formal apology was ever given, no remorse by Schoedinger funeral home and zero accountability for their actions. They will say they had no transaction with me but I have a legal document from Schoedinger that I had to sign prior to my son's service. Reprehensible behavior on part of Kevin Schoedinger and his staff! Ironic that the response is that there is audio of my sons service and the first I am hearing of this is 189 days after his death. How rude to not offer me this or even tell me about it sooner. I text Kevin and asked for the audio after his response, then a few days later I emailed Robert and got no response. Then I received the response in the picture. Why would I say no and although I've documented all communication with them they have not shown me where I supposedly declined audio of the service. They now don't have the supposed audio. Very convenient in my opinion! I will own up to sending a nasty text back after the picture posted. It was definitely deserved after my patience with their ignorance.
