Mr. Greg Brown is a very fine funeral director. He came to our house and made all the arrangements when dad passed away. We called and he came over and helped with with the funeral planning. After the funeral he helped us with the probate court and all the legal matters. We had never been through this and he literally walked us through all of it. He drove us to the probate court, helped file the will, got us all the death certificates we needed and helped us with all of it. He even went with moms to the social security office and waited with moms for about one hour. He did a whole lot of planning and assistance. He came over and prayed with us the day dad died. He reallly just was there for us. The funeral service was just so beautiful. We paid $2,900 for everything. I couldnt believe the price included such a nice wood casket. Dad worked in the Aurora Casket Company and we picked out such a beautiful oak casket. He had full military honors with 21 gun salute and nice doves flew away after the services. I've never seen anything so beautiful. Dad lived 77 years and it was so perfectly done. Mr. Brown told us he had been a mortician for over 30 years and he is good. He really knows what to do and he is good. After the funeral Mr. Brown had dinner with us at the church and he just was a family member. He just showed all his love and caring for us. He is just wonderful. He told us how he had a ""calling"" to be a funeral director. He does seem like just a natural funeral man and his services are just perfect. He spent all the time and explained everything. We even talked about Michael Jackson and the casket he had. Mr. Brown explained how caskets work and showed us all the different fabrics and things. He made dad's casket special ordered and it had dad's name, birthday, when he died on the blanket in the casket. My dad loved his grandchildren and the casket had his 3 grandchildren embroidered right in the lid! It was so beautiful and everybody just really thought it was so nice. I didn't know all this but Mr. Brown just went through it all one thing at a time. We didn't have to pay because he just billed the insurance. I've never arranged a funeral before and I didnt know what to expect but Mr. Brown was so good. I recomend that anybody go to Mr. Brown because he is so so good and understanding. I like the Spring Grove cemetery and it's nice. We almost went to the Gwen Mooney Funeral Home but we are so happy we went to Mr. Brown. Mr. Brown is the best. We love Mr. Brown. If anybody needs a funeral man that will take care of everything and help the Mr. Brown is the right person. He is really good.
Pros: Very nice place and professional people
Cons: Painful to lose a loved one or illness in family.
