“The best funeral service in the area, and not just in Elyria. Ben, the funeral director, made the process seamless and effortless. I would recommend them to anyone and anywhere.“
“Recently my husband and I prearranged our funeral plans with Dovin/ Reber. Sandra Domain was very helpful and made the process for us easy since this subject is not a topic we all don't really care to think about but at some point we face.“
“Duke Funeral Home is the warm home feeling you want in tough times. We have had two family members taken care of through Duke and both times I must say the experience has been made easy and certainly comforting. The inside of the funeral home is warm and inviting. The owner operator (Charlie) is very friendly and a pleasure to work with... something you need in your time of grief.“

“Bill and Lucy are a class act! From beginning to end, they’ve made the process of arranging plans to lay our loved one to rest with compassion, grace, professionalism, and expert level of care. I really appreciate their lighthearted approach that made my mom and I feel so at ease during this difficult time.Lucy took us in for a tour of the funeral home and provided us with a lot of information at a moments notice. Lucy is welcoming, funny, and made my mom and I feel safe and informed about options and pricing. She listens to needs, concerns, and also shared a little of her background that reassured us that we are in good hands. It turns out Lucy is from 4 generations of Funeral Home care, and you could tell with her tactful demeanor. She even shared some anecdotes that explained that there’s no wrong way to do things, and that whatever we wanted was the perfect thing to do. We had it in our minds to tour 3 different funeral homes, but after meeting with Lucy, decided we wanted our loved one in their care and didn’t need to see more places.Misencik is a comfortable place with a sizable visitation room that held a very large number of family and friends. There are other sitting areas as well for those who might have a harder time seeing their passed loved one, but still want to be present. There’s also a small lounge in the front where they had a fresh brewed pot of coffee with all the sweeteners and cream, and a fresh water dispenser. They also keep plenty of tissues throughout which is very helpful.When Bill realized our turnout was bigger than expected, he started bringing out more seating, cracking some jokes to my relatives and bringing smiles.Bill is a rockstar! My mom and I may have been a tad neurotic at times during the planning and leading up to the day, needing to check details to make sure this important event was going to honor our loved one the best way possible. He is very understanding and allowed us the opportunity to check in, in ways that reassured us. Bill was very available and compassionate to our concerns. My mom and I really appreciate Bill’s levity in some instances when we really needed it. Bill and Lucy just have this ability to read people and situations, and knew when humor could be appropriate and that we were receptive to it.Our loved one was prepared and presented respectfully and beautifully. It’s hard to describe, but seeing him so peaceful was a remedy for the unfortunate way he passed. It helped us feel better closure.I couldn’t imagine having a better experience, considering the circumstances. I actually had guests say to me afterwards “this was the best funeral I’ve been to” which might be a bit odd because funerals are not fun. But I’m in complete agreement. My family, friends, and Misencik funeral home really co-created an incredible, sacred, beautiful send off for our loved one that authentically conveyed his funny, loving spirit. I am beyond grateful for my brother to have been in such amazing care.Thank you Bill and Lucy.“
“Busch was caring, supportive and so patient. It made the service such a comforting experience. Megan was so caring and worked so quickly just keeping the process moving in a time when you have difficulty thinking. I would recommend them to anyone who loses a loved one“
“Mike, Michael, Melissa and all - Thank you from the bottom of my heart. We had my husband's memorial visitation here in Avon. They handled everything so professionally and warm and welcoming. Ive been to many funerals, but never like this one. They made every detail personal and positive. They put the person first and make sure your needs are met. They looked over the service to help in even the smallest ways. I was so thankful we found them online and went there. Also, the home is bright and open, and the convenience of the cafeteria and patio downstairs worked out great. I highly highly recommend Busch Funeral Avon. Linda Hutton“
“Liz was very helpful when my brother in law passed. Very thoughtful, organized makes you feel at ease at your time of loss. Liz was very helpful in designing our marker.“
“There is not enough I can say about how Richard J. Reidy Funeral Home took care of my father's funeral services. Though my father pre-arranged everything himself, when I arrived in town and met with Rich and Larissa, they were simply amazing. They were so comforting, caring, and even got laughs out of me. Richard has such an amazing personality, for with even sadness, he brings smiles and laughter. He and Larissa 100% truly care about the families they serve. The quality of the services was magnificent, for they payed meticulous attention to every detail. I must've called Rich a million times and he was so incredibly caring each time. I never felt like I was annoying him. HAHA He and Larissa were with me at the cemetery until the very end, which was incredibly comforting. God Bless them both and the amazing ministry of love and compassion they provide for those suffering the loss of a loved one in the Lorain area. I wish I could give them a million star review. They are simply THE BEST!!!“
“From start to finish Mark was amazing!! He let me spend time with my son. His understanding of my broken heart...I couldn't ask for a better person to guide us through this difficult time. THANK YOU!!“
