Smoot funeral services did an awesome job. I'm not sure about their prices, but the quality of their work is surprisingly comforting.

It's small, and I didn't see much except the meeting room, but it's tasteful and welcoming inside. Plenty of parking outside. The staff were very empathetic, patient, and helpful, both on the phone and in person. Anyone coming here is having a rough time, and has many important decisions to make while simultaneously dealing with strong emotions. They understood that, and helped me through things. They have many options for every part of the service, and prices are reasonable.

The obituary when posted on Facebook had a middle initial In my moms name. I called to let them know my mom doesn't have a middle initial. No problem they made the correction and reposted. However on the day of the funeral they printed the obituary cards with the middle initial. For my mom I brought in her dress - makeup - diamond earrings and a cross ring she loved to wear. When I walked up to the casket I see no earrings or ring! They forgot to put them on her! Also my mom wore her hair in a long braid and I sent a picture. Very simple long braid with a black rubber band. What they did was put in a blue rubber band laying against a black dress with a silver Barrett with some of the silver worn off in her hair. Looks like they found it on the floor and decided to put it in her hair. The picture I sent was simple braid with black rubber band. Then we were given the name of a pastor that they provide. He was to call me a few days before the funeral so I could share information about my mom. Well he never called. So I called Hill to let them know he hadn't reached out. They said I could meet with him a little before the visitation. I wasn't happy about that but what choice did I have. I meet with him and try to give him some information about our mom and family. He talked about the death of his father and how it affected his family. He literally only said my moms name once the rest of the sermon he referred to her as lady! Her boyfriends name is PJ and he referred to him has TJ!! All of this was so overwhelming. We had also given a video to be shown at the end of the service. When it was played the volume was so low no one could hear it!! Then at the burial site we were to be given the sign in book and the video back. They forgot to do that as well it was left in the hurst the entire weekend. Our family cannot have a do~over!! All Hill could do was apologize and for me and my family that isn't enough. This is your family business how can you literally do everything wrong! I wanted my moms funeral to be about love for her and how much she will be missed. Because of Hills lack of concern or care we were left feeling that we let her down and she wasn't honored they way she should have been.

After another funeral service informed us they could not help us within 24 hours of funeral. We called Day-Manofsky. Rick Day put together arrangements in less than 24 hours and talked to us about alternatives. For example since our service was small, suggested we not do traditional police escort processional from church to graveside. Made it easier and saved us money. Spence Funeral Service in Canal quoted us price in excess of $6000. Day-Manofsky charged us $2378 for same services. Death of loved one is always hard. We felt like Rick Day treated us with respect, listened to what we wanted, and did not take advantage of us in a situation where we were vulnerable.

The funeral home was in charge of the funeral service and cremation. A horrific list of items was either not done or done incorrectly. 1. The viewing started late because the staff had not set up the room in time. 2. We had asked to have my mom's hair braided. They failed to braid her hair. My daughter had to do it. 3. The tribute video playing when loved ones entered the room to see her was a tribute video of someone other than my mother. They had to hurriedly switch it out. 4. We were told we could stream music over Bluetooth speakers. When we were ready to play her favorite songs we were informed they didn't have a Bluetooth speaker that day. We were forced to have a family member retrieve one. 5. We requested several locks of hair to be preserved because she was being cremated. This was not done before her cremation. They are lost forever. 6. We requested finger nail clippings be kept in order to preserve her DNA. This was not done before her cremation. Her DNA is lost forever. I do not recommend this funeral service for anyone. Their prices are low, but there's a reason for it. Do yourself and your loved ones a favor and go someplace else. At this point, I don't even trust that the ashes I received are those of my mother. That doubt will be stuck with me for the rest of my life. It's not worth the couple of thousand dollars we saved.

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.
