Mayes Ward Dobbins

I had very mixed emotions about using Unilocal to write a review about a funeral home — Unilocal is supposed to be for happy things. However I am so appreciative of the folks over at Mayes Ward-​Dobbins that I just had to write a review, so that others can see the wonderful services they provide.
James and the whole team from Mayes Ward worked with our family through the entire end of life process. From the planning stages into the actual viewing/​funeral/​burial once my father-​in-​law passed away, they were right by our sides, providing excellent guidance and support. Their facility on Church Street is modern but tasteful, and provides ample room for even large scale visitations and funerals, such as ours. The staff worked closely with us to take care of all the little things, such as easels for pictures, TV hookups for a slideshow, and water and mints for… well, you can guess how we were feeling after several hours of up close and personal chatting with friends and relatives.
My points of reference for end of life services are limited to when my grandparents passed away last year, however when I compare the experiences I cannot help but feel blessed that we were able to work with Mayes Ward-​Dobbins for my father-​in-​law. They are kind but thorough, gentle but competent.
My condolences go to anyone who is in need of funeral services, however if you are in that situation, Mayes Ward-​Dobbins is a wonderful and compassionate place to go for the next phase.
