“A O’Hare Funerals recently performed the funeral for my son Daniel. Rosa offered suggestions, I made decisions then changed them, and throughout this process Rosa displayed such a wonderful understanding of how difficult all this was for me. I can not thank them enough for making this sad time a little more bearable.”
deb youngAugust 2025“Yesterday I was privileged to (virtually) attend the funeral of Gregory Thomas via a video link. I was amazed by the way your company so beautifully conducted everything. The singing funeral director was on another level. Also the kind, sincerity of the two staff who welcomed and later thanked those for attending. The most incredible part was at the end of the mass where the priest and the singer sang the blessing at the final commendation, it was really the most beautiful prayer. Thank you for your attentiveness and care it is really beyond these 5 stars.”
