There aren't enough words to say how thankful we are to Kathy. She made the whole process so smooth and easy. Grieving itself is no walk in the park. This was my first time ever having to deal with this side of losing a loved one and Kathy put my worries at ease. From dealing with mom's life insurance to making sure she looked perfect for her funeral service. She was patient, professional, gave wonderful advice and suggestions. In addition her prices were very affordable. I 100% reccomend using Swilley Funeral home to anyone that is in need of her services.

They were great. Other Funeral homes were not up front on pricing (they would not email me the price and said that if we did not sign before the death, that the price would go up). Swilley shows all of their pricing up front and do not tie you down to a down payment to secure prices. The prices were 1/2 and even 1/3 the price of other local funeral homes. Kathy was knowledgeable and compassionate and she guided us through the process. They set up a beautiful service at St. Lawrence Church and followed all of our wishes. They did a great job preparing my mother in law and presented her in a beautiful and respectful way. After the service, Kathy continued to be very helpful and honest (she reminded us that we had credits for the Mausoleum and never took advantage of us). This is a very difficult time for families and I believe that some of these other business prey on grieving families. Swilley did a great job for a very fair price.

After the unexpected passing of a loved one and never have gone through the process of a planning a funeral- Kathy really helped me out. I never would have imagined how I could've gone through this process without her help- she helped out with price, the actual funeral process, legal questions etc. You can tell she truly cares about helping you and not charging you for your last penny.

Kind and Caring . Kathy was extremely helpful with planning my Mothers funeral. She listened to me and made me aware of my options along the way. She kept me informed before, during (the visitation and funeral mass) and at the grave site . I paid more for my brothers funeral a few years ago (at a different funeral home) and did not receive the same caring compassion. If I have a need in the future, I will call Kathy.

Wonderful, wonderful experience with Kathryn. Kind, straightforward, gave excellent answers to our questions and made helpful suggestions. No pressure, just wanted to meet our needs. What a blessing to work with such a helpful person during a most difficult time. Very reasonable pricing, would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for a caring, helpful and efficient funeral home. Thank you so much!

My Dad passed in May of this year. We were referred to Swilley Funeral Home by Rest Haven Memorial. When we arrived Kathryn was straight forward and provided us everything that it would cost and take for them to help us. Their rates were by far the most affordable and they took care of everything. They made sure to pick up my Dad from the hospital the same day. As his only daughter this was hard for me but Kathryn took care of it along with David and kept my wishes of how I wanted things to go. We did a graveside ceremony and Kathryn and David arrived on time with my Dad and remained there the whole service. My dad was laid to rest in peace and it all was great thanks to them! I would recommend them to anyone in this situation. They will do all they can to make sure you are able to lay your loved one to rest in peace. I cant thank them enough for all they have done and I will forever be grateful to them.
