From the moment I made the phone call to Samaritan Funeral Home after my daughters unexpected death, I was treated with the upmost care & love from Sonia & staff. She made my family & I really feel the love coming from her, she answered every phone call text & email no matter what time it was day or night. Also she never tried to up sell anything we didn't need, as I've experienced in the past with other funeral homes. If you are looking for a warm & caring experience during such a sensitive time for your loved one well Sonia at Samaritan Funeral Home is the place to go & wow her hugs are so heart felt she makes you feel like family. If I could give 10 stars I would.
Thank you so much Sonia you are an amazing human being.

My brother passed away. I live in another state. PD sent him to a funeral home they work with. I couldn't afford any kind of services. The county helped me get assistance and Sumaritan Funeral Home took over from there. They were so awesome! Arranged the cremation, the paperwork and sent him to me. Took a lot of stress off everything. Thank you!

In the midst of my husband preparing to leave this world, I reached out to this facility, Samaritan Funeral Home. I was quickly connected and assisted within just a few minutes. Upon scheduling an appointment, I met with Sonia, the Director. While these times can be challenging and trying, emotionally and physically, Sonia graciously guided me through the process, while reassuring me during the entire period, I'll take care of you. The compassion this individual provided me was so kind and helped me during this difficult time. In the end, we were able to provide my Husband with the most beautiful Celebration of Life Event, catered with the most wonderful food, setting and service, my weary eyes and heart have ever experienced. Thank you all for a job well done!
