"The loss of my grandfather was fast. We thought we would have at least a year left with him. We'll we loss him in only 10days. Russell helped in so many ways. I didn't know what or how everything worked, but Russell helped all the to the end. I'm so thankful for them. It was short and sweet just like grandpa would have liked it."

"My dad being a Connally Compton staff himself would have been proud of how his fellow co-workers/friends treated him and the care they showed. Thank you very much Bobby and Russell"

"My mother had a pre-need plan when Connally Compton from the mid 1980s. However, she had since moved several hours away. As the end became imminent, I called the funeral home for advisement since I had no idea how distance would affect her plan. Frank Hesbrook returned my call, expressed his condolences, explained the process in simplistic detail,

and then told me to focus on my remaining time with my mother and let him worry about transport and any other details. He said he would handle it, and he did. When the time came, Frank went above and beyond. He answered questions but never pressured me to make one choice or another. In addition, he called regularly to ask how I and my family were doing and to see if we had any questions. Even after the funeral, he has continued to be supportive even though his job is technically finished. When I discovered I needed a copy of my father's death certificate from over forty years ago, I called Frank for help. He knew exactly what to do and took care of it immediately. At no time during my interactions with Frank or any of the Connally Compton Funeral Home staff did I feel as if my needs were ignored or were secondary to those of anyone else. They were there to help me every step of the way."

They were very informed and prepared to answer all our questions and doubts. Provided a clear and trustworthy guidance above all the confusion and distraught we are emotionally going through after losing

our mom. Thank you in the truest form."
