American Cremation Society

May 2019

When someone dies. It's hard to be positive or make light of it, but I am going to try here as this funeral home deserves recognition for their professionalism and promptness plus tact. When my in-laws moved out to Grand Blanc a few years ago, they decided to get their death affairs in order as not to burden the family and make their wishes known. They picked a beautiful cemetery and Sharp as their funeral home. Unfortunately, my father in law passed away a couple of weeks ago. Thank goodness this is where they chose to handle everything because the process was SO EASY from the moment he passed. Anything that has came up, Stephanie was on it immediately. People needed death certificates, letters from the funeral home with service times for work, changes to the website Memorial, a last minute decision to pause the cremation and say a final goodbye - and those were handled in minutes through email or calls to Stephanie. I cannot believe how much of everything was handled by her - the arrangements for his cremation, the obituary in local papers, The website memorial, the arrangements for the services at the church AND the interment at the cemetery and it's coordination, the cremation, the death certificates... you name it, they literally handled everything except things the family chose like photos and music and the luncheon after. The combination of using Kindred Hospice, The Caregiver Professionals and Sharp Funeral Homes should be part of anyone's death plan if they live in Genesee county. I can't thank Stephanie enough for her hand in making such a somber time so much less chaotic.
