Erlewein Mortuary & Crematory

I want to THANK Erlewein Mortuary and the whole staff for their professionalism in taking care of my dad's cremation and coordinating burial with Madison State cemetery for veterans. Alex Barnes is a great person to work with. Alex was pleasant, courteous, patient, respectful in every way, and listened well. He communicated well with family members from Oregon and Washington state. Funerals are sad and stressful. Alex and Erlewein Mortuary made the event memorable and pleasant.nS. Albee

Dane, BJ and Staff,nnI want to start off by saying that my mother passed away on September 23 and Erlewein Mortuary and Crematory were taking care of my mother right away. We knew our mother was in excellent hands. Our mother looked absolutely beautiful. The staff was very friendly and helpful and met all of our needs. They guided us through every step we needed to take in order for mom to have the best viewing and funeral. The slide show was perfect. They had all our pictures that we wanted on there and the beautiful music to go with it plus the songs at the service. I know my mother would have loved it. Flowers and other gifts were placed around the room perfectly where each person that entered the room to see my mother could see them. THANK YOU so much for EVERYTHING! You went above and beyond for my mother!!! My mother was a true angel and my hero and she was treated like one! I will be forever grateful!❤

There are not enough words to express how I feel. My mom passed away a week ago and Erlewein was absolutely amazing. The staff was remarkable. They were all so kind and caring. The video that they put together will be cherished forever. Thank you Erlewein’s from the bottom of our hearts for taking care of our beautiful mom. ❤ufe0f

I hardly want make up on my son however is was caked on him like frosting on a cake. It didn’t even look like my son with all the make up on him. They had place his flowers in the room for the other showing and we had to tell them that several our flowers were missing. We were told our flowers were misplaced because of a “new person who didn’t know what they were doing.” They also didn’t have all of them logged into our book And there are still some missing that they had never found that were sent from our family. All of the guests who were there for another showing had kept coming into our area even though they had their own entry and exit on the other side of the building. For our service, there weren’t enough chairs and our guests had to go get their own chairs. For the service we werent offered any help or given ideas of what to do. They only asked what minister we were having and at the time we were still trying to get one. Our family had gone into the wrong funeral procession because it was not marked and ended up on the opposite side one of the state. And for the obituary, we had to call 3 times to get it all corrected because they had kept printing it wrong after we made the corrections the first time while we were in the meeting.

Everyone there was extremely helpful and very thoughtful. Thank you, Evan and Ashley for all your help.
