"Chris and staff exceeded our expectations. We had never used Newkirk & Whitney before and started with some apprehension, but we were greatly impressed with the entire operation and the handling of details and arrangements by the entire staff. Would highly recommend them!"

"Under the circumstances of the ever changing governmental requirements of public assembly due to the covid19 virus, the funeral home was up to the task of meeting those requirements while meeting the wishes of the family for a respectful and dignified last visit with a loved one."
