Richard-Midway Funeral Home

Let’s face it. None of us want to think about death. And when we do we are often overwhelmed. That’s where funeral directors come in. And honestly, in a time of vulnerability an unscrupulous one can take advantage of you.
That isn’t going to happen here. No corporate owned sales pitch akin to a timeshare at Richard-​Midway. I’ve buried my father, both my grandfathers, my grandmother, and my great-​grandfather here. (Full disclosure: Jeff, the owner, is a friend, and our families have been friends for decades. But that doesn’t matter as I’ve seen how they treat customers outside the family.)
Their work is magnificent. The dignity with which your loved ones are treated is without compare. When my grandmother passed while I was out of town, everything was taken care of until I returned, and the staff at her assisted living facility and our friends who were there when grandma died related to me how well things were handled in my absence.
When you face this difficult time, it is hard enough. Coming here for funeral services eases at least one burden.

Great people, my brother recently passed. That treated us with respect and dignity. The priest that came to pray with us was wonderful. They closed at 9 it never once did they rush us out. Thanks again Richards for your kindness.

It’s not often that one (hopefully!) has the opportunity to review a funeral home on Unilocal.Our Dad recently passed and we decided to hold his service here, as this was his choice for both of his parents.
This is a small family run home. My sister made the initial phone calls, and all went smooth. We met to finalize the arrangements on a Sunday morning and I really had no idea what to expect. Personally, I’d heard stories of inflated prices, funeral directors working the family’s grief to leverage additional services and costs. NONE of those horror stories happened here. Andy was kind and businesslike– just what you need in this time. We had the facts, we had the choices we could make and he guided us through drafting the death notice. Everything came in at a cost that was at or below what we had expected.
What impressed me most of all was how we were treated and even more, how my father was treated. We were given the space, and respect this occasion in our lives deserved. We were not directed or told how to do anything. The day of the service the gentleman that was there with us was also kind and helped us to give Dad a good sendoff. We were offered help in arranging pictures, flowers and music to our liking.
Thank you Richard Midway for your service! You helped us in our time of need and I’m sure Dad would have loved it.
