Family Testimonials

Jim and Tracy were exceptional during our father’s funeral arrangements. I told Jim, in person, that even though it’s obviously a business, the entire process didn’t feel that way. They truly care about their clientele, and their well being, well after their “business” is complete. We thank them from the bottom of our hearts, and would recommend their services to anyone.

Doug DeCoensel

Jim, Tracy: You made our family feel welcome and at ease. You were also professional at all times. We wish to thank you for making our lives much easier, in our time of bereavement and loss.

Laurel E. Ratcliffe

On behalf of myself and my family, we were very pleased with the kindness and care we received. Ferris Funeral Home walked us through each step and took care of everything we needed.

Lisa Watmough

Words cannot say enough about Ferris Funeral Home, Jim, Tracy, and their team. From the moment we walked through the door, throughout our time in their home, and following the services, their care, attention to detail, support, and pleasant demeanor was beyond exceptional and truly appreciated during a difficult time.  In their home, you are treated as a family member, not as a number, and it is evident that they value relationship building.  They prioritize your needs/wants and will go out of their way to accommodate your requests. They are available and present at any turn, while also creating a wonderful balance of checking in to make sure you feel comfortable and supported, but giving you and your family your space.

While I hope to not see them for a while, when life presents that moment, I look forward to their guidance, and thoughtfulness, but above all their welcoming and supportive home.

The Value of a Funeral Service

When we experience the death of someone we love, a funeral service fills several important needs.

  • Funerals help us acknowledge that someone we love has died.
  • Funerals allow us to say goodbye.
  • Funerals offer continuity and hope for the living.
  • Funerals provide a support system for us, our friends, family members and the community.
  • Funerals allow us to reflect on the meaning of life and death.
