I recommend Merkle Funeral Services since I had them do my mother’s funeral and just recently my husband’s funeral. I have them arranged to do my funeral also in the future. Everything is handled with compassion and dignity. They take care of so many extra items which takes the burdens off you. Their guidance helped me to take the necessary steps required after a loved one passes. It was surprisingly easier than I expected.

On top of the tremendous grief that came after the loss of our father, handling the final funeral arrangements felt a bit overwhelming. However, due to the incredible compassion, professionalism, and guidance of Brian and his staff at Merkle Funeral Home, the process and decisions went smoothly without any stress. Brian and his staff handled every detail with the utmost care and respect, from the thoughtful way they prepared our dad for the viewing, to the slight hand movement at the funeral service to let my sisters and I know when to begin walking behind the casket, to the beautiful way they arranged the flowers. The words Brian shared at the graveside service were so thoughtful, accurate and honoring to our father. After the services, Olivia came to our home with the flowers, the guest list, thank you cards, death certificates, and lovingly offered to any questions and offer and additional assistance. No words can express our heartfelt gratitude for providing the over and above care you showed for our family. I highly recommend Brian and his team! The Connor sisters

I cannot say enough about the kindness, love and caring shown to my family following the death of my Mom, Joan Gramlich. Brian , Tammy, Olivia and Jane went over and beyond. I can’t thank them enough.
