First of all, my husband and I went by to get quotes to have an idea in case something happened to…read moremy loved ones. My first point of contact was with Joshua the funeral director. I must say Joshua is a very respectful and caring person. They were very transparent, which we truly liked, the first thing he gave us was a price list. The price was reasonable and there were no hidden fees. The next day we met with Blair which was also a nice person and not a pushy salesman. I would definitely recommend this funeral home because they treat you with compassion and they went above and beyond to accommodate us, since unfortunately we ended up using their services a lot faster than expected. Overall, they were punctual, compassionate, and very friendly. My family and I are very thankful for the beautiful service and special thanks to Joshua, for accommodating my family and myself the day after my dad died, which 8 of us showed up to his office for the final planning and he was very comforting at this difficult time. Thank you and I have recommended it to all our friends and family in Sebring.

My family went to (then) Stephenson Funeral Home in 1976 when my great grandfather passed away to…read morehold services. Over the years our poor record keeping meant that in 2018 we were unsure where his final resting place was. Craig Nelson answered the phone (outside of normal business hours!) and took down what little information I had. He promised to see what he could find and arranged a time to call me back. He went above and beyond to locate the records and help us figure out where my great grandfather was buried and all of us are so thankful. They don't use an answering service, so I was able to talk to him right away. He was kind, helpful, professional and empathetic - I can't imagine a better character for someone in this industry. He didn't try to brush off my call or delay returning my call, even though we were customers 40+ years ago. He treated me with respect and kindness. For a family who is grieving, I doubt there's a better place to gather and remember loved ones lost.

I visited the Heartwood Preserve after reading an article about the facility in the Tampa Bay…read moreTimes. The grounds are open to the public during normal business hours. I walked the cemetery and the preserve. I didn't inquire info or pricing of services.. A description of what I viewed while on the property is below along with several photos. The Heartwood Preserve is a medium size property and is essentially the same environment as Starkey Park. In fact, the most southwest corner of Starkey Park borders the Heartwood Preserve. The border fence can seen on the preserve trial which is probably a quarter mile long. I walked through the cemetery portion of the property viewing two graves. Small grave markers can be seen along the trail indicating gravesites. One grave not pictured was circled by pinecones with pineneedles a top. Each gravesite was directly beside the cemetery pathway (not paved) identical to many field like trials at Starkey where many fan shaped palm fronds are. The welcome center was staffed when I visited and a separate employee was tending to the grounds and politely waved and smiled. I learned a lot by walking the property on my own and will consider burial on these grounds.

I was told it could take up to 3 months to complete and I was fine with the timeframe. I was also told I would receive an email to confirm that everything was correct before they started the job.

Everything was perfect and the timeline was quicker than expected. The price was worth the final product. I would recommend this company for any project you need done. Kaleb was wonderful to work with.

Kindness and humor help so much when a family undergoes such an emotional event. Ron, Don and Lori (along with a greeter) made sure everything ran smoothly. Their personalities cut through the normal tension of such affairs. I highly recommend Compassionate Cremations & Memorials for your needs. Their name says it all!
