“Words really cannot properly express how grateful we are to Kevin Kristan and his team. They took great care of our family, helping make a very difficult time a little easier. We didn’t have to worry about anything, as they took care of every detail. Kevin’s demeanor is very comforting and was so appreciated. It’s clear he truly cares and wants your experience to be as positive and easy as possible. We would recommend Kristan to anyone looking for the best help available in handling the loss of a loved one.“

“It feels a little strange to leave a funeral home review but to the person reading this, I’m sorry for your loss. There’s not a single thing anyone can say to make things better. However, McMurrough Funeral Chapel made everything the best it could possibly be for my family when we lost our mom late April 2024. If you want the short version, these people aren’t after your money. You’ll know it the moment you call them with questions. In 10 words or less, they are dependable, trusting, caring and accommodating to your needs. The director and his assistant are very communicative and professional. During the service, they were available yet respectful of you and your guests’ space. If you have time, read on. Our mom peacefully went in Las Vegas and needed to be flown to Chicago. Between the coordination of my mom’s flight and assurance of her safe arrival to the funeral chapel, McMurrough’s funeral director, Brian gave the utmost comfort and peace of mind for all of us. They are very organized. The viewing service and mass were beautiful and these dependable, wonderful, caring people of this funeral home made it all possible.
P.S. We lost our nephew years back and we did not have the same experience with Burnett Funeral Home down the road however, I don’t want to give them a negative review as I understand folks have a business to run.“

“Matthew and the team at Symonds Funeral Home made a difficult process easier. Not only were they patient and understanding, they anticipated obstacles and did everything they could to simplify the process. I can't recommend them enough.“

“All my family has been served starting as far back as 1969. There are no words in the dictionary to describe their careful, gentle treatment of our loved ones as well as those that come to pay their respects. They go out of their way to make every need and request honored if at all possible. They took time with us when we came in to make arrangements. They helped us think of things that hadn't yet come to mind. Afterwards, if we called with a question, they gave us such respect and time. We will always go here!“

“I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart to Mat and his staff. Mat has treated me like one of his own family members as we worked together to create this memorable service for my dad. He had such a comforting demeanor, and the process was flawless. I cannot thank him enough for how great he made my dad look—all the little details, reminders, the church setup, etc.—he goes the extra mile, and I was amazed with his attention to detail. This funeral home was one my dad always requested, and now I see why. It feels more like a home than a business. I have nothing but the utmost respect for Mat. Mat runs a business the right way by truly being compassionate for these families. If you’re considering selecting this funeral home for your family’s needs at one of the most difficult times, do not hesitate; I would highly recommend it.“

“I would like to give a huge thank you to Oliva and Nancy for their help and support during my mother’s funeral process. This was something new to me, but they always answered any questions or doubts I had very clearly. My mom started paying off her crypt around 2009 or 2010 and me and her are very grateful for the staff from that time for helping her during that process as well. She never had any complaints. Thank you for all you do. (Funeral: July 16, 2024)“
