"My mother passed away unexpectedly from coronavirus in the middle of a huge snow storm. We live in South Florida and had to fly both her and myself back for the funeral. Thank goodness my mother had the foresight to pay for a preplan with Hellman's. It was a very emotional and overwhelming time for me and Hellman's made everything on their end so easy. They really took care of almost everything, only having to ask me a few questions and helped me with links to traveler information for the state of NY for coronavirus and so many other things that I may not have thought of on my own. Afterwards, the people that work at Hellman's have been very kind and have followed up with me several times to ensure that I received things I needed like the Certificate of Death and with all the other calls I have had to make it was nice to have a company call me to make sure I had what I needed. The people that work there are kind, companionate, knowledgeable and have excellent customer service skills."

"This is the 2nd time this year where we needed to arrange a funeral. Both my parents passed away within 5 months of each other. Hellmann's was on top of everything and never tried to up sell or pressure us. My Mom's funeral was all done following her passing while my Dad and his wife had made prearrangements with Hellmann's 3 months prior to his passing. I can't say enough about how kind and supportive the funeral directors and staff have been during these emotional times. Thank you."
