My friends father passed away and the person who was supposed to give the Eulogy at another funeral home cancelled. The other funeral home couldn't find anyone to replace the person they contracted, and we were left without a pastor 2 days before the service. I called Malesich and Shirey, and even though they weren't handling the service they were able to find us someone to speak at the very last minute. Shawn was super helpful, great to work with.

There are no words to express the Gratitude I have for Shawn and Tucker! With my dad passing it was difficult navigating how to handle every element of arranging his funeral. Shawn and Tucker were both so helpful every moment of the day if needed and even running a business it felt like they were truly looking out for my family and treating us with the most respect. They were so accommodating to anything we needed or wanted for my dads funeral. They are absolutely the best humans for treating people with so much care versus thinking only about what money they could get from us. I hope I don’t have to plan another service anytime soon but when the day comes I know who will be taking care of us! Thank you thank you to you guys for helping my family begin our closure with peace in knowing my dad was cared for so well, and you took care of us in our time of grief. Your very appreciated!!

Talk about going the extra mile and showing genuine love and concern for families dealing with so much grief. At no point did Tucker or Shawn try to upsell a single thing or take advantage of us like so many other funeral homes out there tend to do. If it’s possible to have a good experience going through a time like this, these guys will give you that. They work around the clock to make this easier and more tolerable for the loved ones left behind. Their prices are very fair and they are accommodating on all levels.

Very compassionate during the process of a very sensitive time. We were requesting many details that required time and effort, Fred, Shawn & Tucker we’re very accommodating. Everything from beginning to end including the transportation services was great. Thank you all for going above and beyond for Sacreds memorial 🙏🏻

They were extremely helpful, sensitive, knowledgeable. They are also warm, caring, and so kind especially when you are hurting from the loss of a loved one. Their prices are incredibly reasonable. I have used their services twice and truly recommend talking with them before going somewhere else for funeral arrangements. Meet and talk with Donald.
