Lambie Funeral Home

It truly is a shame when a place such as this gets one bad review and it serves to reduce the star quality of a truly remarkable business!
My sister and I were told to check out funeral homes before our mother’s passing from cancer, which we did with great sadness.
I won’t mention the others because it’s unnecessary. This is a review of Lambie, and Lambie, alone… although I will say that Lambie’s prices were far better than the others we visited. The others had additional charges for what David Lambie was giving us for free. That would be the engraving of roses on the casket and the beautiful embroidered blanket in addition to the video of mom’s pictures which were shown on two flat screen televisions throughout the viewing, along with music from my IPhone’s playlist.
My sister told me she passed the funeral home every day on her way home from work and she admired the grounds. So I agreed to meet with David Lambie, although my sister had already spoken with him via telephone and she felt very comfortable with him after their conversation.
David Lambie is, in my opinion, one of the reasons I was able to get through the initial loss of my mother. I called him as soon as she passed on a Sunday. Although he was out of the office & his wife Dana answered the call, he called me right away to offer his condolences and tell me that he was available no matter what I needed.
David has a most soothing demeanor. But mostly, he was and is just kind and gentle in every way imaginable. I admire his gracious and affable manner of being.
The room where the viewing was held was quaint and the blue hues of the room were very peaceful. Needless to say, all went beautifully. My mother looked beautiful as well. David saw pictures of her in life and ensured that her hair looked exactly like she wore it. Her makeup was applied beautifully. Again. David ensuring at every juncture that she looked exactly as she did in life.
By the way, we hired a gentleman by the name of Joe Dvornecky (sp) who recited a beautiful poem and released four doves at the cemetery. It was the most glorious way to send our mother to heaven.
As to the negative comment made by someone about Lambie Funeral Home, we chose to make our own decision and not be guided by the negative review. Sometimes people have expectations that can NEVER be met. I believe that the review is absolute hogwash.
David Lambie and his family… his father was also at the cemetery and the church… treated us like WE were his family.
During a time in most people’s lives when one is experiencing such tremendous grief, to feel like someone taking care of you can ease the burden, having done everything they could do to make this horrific time so much easier, is a blessing.
Thank you David, for your warmth, your kindness and gentle compassion… you will not be forgotten.

A family-​run business that treat you like family. I adore these people.
I had the misfortune of losing a lot of my family and we turned to Lambie’s because they were in the neighborhood, but we really didn’t know a lot about them back then (talking twenty years ago). We were amazed. They took care of EVERYTHING and handled everything smoothly. Loved ones who had an open casket service were done beautifully, and looked like themselves. Loved ones who were closed casket and loved ones who were cremated were handled with the up most care. The funeral home directors were extremely compassionate, and comforting.
We have turned to them time and time again, and ALWAYS been treated with dignity, respect, and compassion. They have always taken care of each and every family member as if it were one of their own. And they aren’t too busy to answer questions, or help you figure out things you had not considered. They even remembered one of the first people I had to bury nineteen years ago, everything from the whole name, to how he was buried.
I had people die suddenly, with no plans or preparation for it, and Lambie came through and made sure they were taken care of, with the love and respect they deserved. I also had members who were not treated right at other funeral homes, and turned to Lambie. They were able to step in and make things right for that family member, helping to heal us after the ordeal of the first place.
If you ever have to suffer loss, these are people you can trust and turn to in your darkest hours.
