"No one should have to bury their son. Robyn and her staff made this process so easy we didn't have to do a thing but share our wishes. We talked about our son and his life and they did the rest. We couldn't be happier with everything."

"During our time of bereavement it was great to have a team that made us feel like we're the only family that mattered at that time. Which we knew there were others families experiencing the same grief. They took exceptional care of my father and made sure all of our needs were met and responded in a timely manner. I am so very thankful to the Nelsen staff and will be utilizing their services again."

"Everything went smoothly from beginning to end. My mother had to be brought to NY for burial, and she was driven up there, along with April, we were given yarmulkes, a shiva candle, and all was taken care of. I thought it would have been more complicated logistically, but all was taken care of by Nielsen's."

"Because of COVID-19, we were forced to inter my father's ashes earlier than planned and without the family present, as we are all from out of state. Nelsen, the church, and the cemetery worked together wonderfully well to make that happen and emailed us pictures and a video. Given the circumstances, it was a very good experience."

"I couldn't be more pleased with Nelsen Funeral Home helping us through a difficult time when my mom passed away suddenly. They were so helpful with ideas we had for our mom's service. We had an idea for a bagpiper and the staff quickly found one & arranged for them to be part of the service. The staff responded to each need and request very quickly, always checking in with us to make sure my sister & I were ok throughout the process. Losing a loved one is so hard but Nelsen worked diligently to make the process smooth during this difficult time in our lives."

"I found the staff very supportive and comforting. There was no pressure to purchase anything and once you said 'No'...it was dropped. They did an amazing job with the slide show of pictures we gave them and I especially love the Tribute Movie online. It was very moving and beautiful. I can't say enough about the positive experience our family had with Nelsen Funeral Home."

"Two comments (not related to your question): 1) your sound system should be upgraded to accept music from MP3 players, not just burned CD's and 2) I did not realize the tenderloin sandwiches already had horseradish on. They were not eaten and I had to toss most of what came home. Might have been better on the side? Small suggestions - otherwaise all was as good as I could have hoped. Thank you."

"The staff is amazing, such as a time I was experiencing not so very long ago. I met the most wonderful people at Nelsen's, that I've ever met in my lifetime, and I do hope to continue to have in my life. If I were to begin calling out names, I'd certainly miss some one. Thank you for your kindness, each and everyone of you!!! What comes to mind first is the love I was shown in preparing to my loved one. Being taken care of without pressure, helping as needed with professional guidance. It meant a lot to me, as I'd never been through this type of unexpected situation. I was pleased with the help, consideration, meeting my financial needs, constant contact, there is so much more I could say, mere words can never express it all. It is, and will always be greatly appreciated!! Your staff are outstanding, amazing, wonderful people. Thank you so very much for all that you provided me, it is and shall always be appreciated. My sincere appreciation, Wanda Hofler"
