"Maria, Judy and all the staff were so helpful, compassionate and kind during this difficult time. I had no idea what to do and they never pushed me and explained everything in detail. I felt as though they were a part of my family. They made all of us comfortable and we knew my husband was resting peacefully. I can't thank them enough for all they did. Wonderful, caring, loving people. Thank you so much!"

"I have been there two times this year and both times the whole staff was excellent. The first I went there for my brothers wife. Sara was so pleasant and put us at ease. the second time was for my wife and the treatment was extra good. She was aware that I lost my sister-in-law in February, my brother in July, and now my WIFE in November. I hope that I do not see her for many many years, but consider her as a good friend.

"It's hard to think that a funeral could be a wonderful experience but my father's funeral was just that. From the time dad was taken from my home until the last bit of catered food was eaten there at the chapel we were very comforted that dad was finally at piece. We were not sure we wanted a viewing because of how he looked when he passed. No one could believe how wonderful he looked. My sister and I were so surprised how he even looked 10 years younger. The whole experience was truly amazing considering he was 97 years old and it was so hard to let hime go. But we did and we thank Sunland Memorial Park for such a sweet rememberance."

"The Sunland Mortuary and Cremation Service was professional and sensitive to our family's needs throughout the process. The kindness of the young man who transferred Dad to the Mortuary eased all our questions and concerns; while Kurtis spent quality time and exhibited much patience with us as we prepared for the funeral and made multiple changes to the program and obituary. The flowers and slide show were beautiful and greatly appreciated. A big thank you goes out to Sarah, who provided a seamless transition on the day of the funeral as Kurtis had a medical issue. The catering company supplied a delicious assortment of tasty desserts and boxed up all the extras to take home. The limousine driver was courteous and helpful getting Mom's wheelchair in and out of the vehicle, however the air conditioning didn't function properly and the ride home was uncomfortable. A separate evaluation will be provided for Resthaven Cemetery. Thank you for your love and kindness during our time of grief."

"In our case we lost parents within 10 months of each other. In the first instance although we knew the desires of my wifes mother; the services had not been prearranged nor paid for. In hindsight we should have used the few weeks before her passing to research and choose a funeral home as well as fund the funeral that she desired; but that would have used up alot of the final time that we were able to spend with her and we didn't want to do that. So upon her passing we had to make the arrangements that she wanted immediately. Although her desires were extremely basic and simple, anything that could go wrong did. And boy did it go wrong. It was a horrible time for a few MONTHS after her passing. When my mother's time came we also knew her desires. She had previously chosen the funeral home and services that she desired and conveyed that to us. When it became obvious that she would need those services in the near future, it was simply a matter of a few phone calls to implement those plans. My only concern was that my POA would expire upon her death and that that event might occur prior to funding her final expenses. We were able to spend the final few days with my mother and the post passing experience was simply a matter of verifying that her wishes were followed. It's hard to say that funerals are a pleasant event; but, there's no reason to make the passing even more stressful and tragic."
