"Several years ago, after I experienced a major health issue, my husband and I got serious about planning for “End of Life” issues. My neighbor and good friend had used Anderson McQueen for her mother’s End of Life services. So we called and made an appointment with them.

I was anxious, fearful they would try to pressure or shame us into something we really didn’t want. That was not our experience. The representative listened to us, explained all their services and helped us make these serious final arrangements to our complete satisfaction. Everything was done in the most pleasant and professional manner. We placed these plans in our safe deposit box and went on with the business of living knowing our children would not be faced with difficult choices about services for us. They would know exactly what we wanted and had chosen to do.

Unfortunately my husband predeceased me. Hospice made the call to Anderson McQueen and Anderson McQueen took care of everything. It was only necessary for me to go and discuss the minor details. The entire staff, particularly Aubrey, was so patient and respectful and handled everything as we planned. They took care of the death certificates and were exceptionally helpful with the obituary, prayer cards, and other small etiquette details. During my time of exceptional grief, they provided the comfort, caring support I needed. I am so grateful to them."

"Thanks so much for all your help after mom passed. It wasn't the easiest situation, but you were steady through it all which is just what I needed. You stayed professional yet compassionate...A combination not so easy to find. May the Lord continue to use you and bless you in this most difficult position."

"This is just a formal expression of my brother's and my gratitude for your sensitive response to our needs, and for your excellent care of our mother, Jane Sankner. You handled everything beautifully! It seems that when someone passes away, the family needs flexibility as they sort out what they need to do and how to do it. Your calm demeanor and patience gave us that flexibility. The ambience at the funeral home just reinforced the gentle, relaxed feeling we had as we worked through the process leading to Mom's burial. Everyone we spoke with at Anderson-McQueen was pleasant and helpful. On the day of the funeral, several of our guests had come quite a distance, either by plane or by car, so I was very grateful for the welcoming presence they found when they arrived. You did an outstanding job, and I am so glad you were there for us! (Incidentally, I'm sure my mother would have approved of our choice, too. She attended a visitation there a number of years ago and thought it was very nice.) Best wishes and know that we would recommend Anderson-McQueen to anyone, especially anyone who needed special care and guidance after someone'e passing!"

"When we first spoke you said that making Jack's service perfect was really important. You, John and Amee certainly did just that. Allowing us a private open casket viewing at the funeral home because the church would not permit an open casket meant so much. The committal service at the cemetery was awesome. The participants were active duty, as opposed to VFW members, was touching. My every request was fulfilled by Amee. Your kindness, support and John's generosity were a fitting tribute for a man who devoted 58 years to the industry. Thank you!"

"My family members and I couldn't have been more pleased with the quality of the service we received, from the time of my initial phone call right through the final moments of our celebration of life service, plus follow-up communications a few days later. We received a level of service that combined great efficiency with real compassion. Thank you to the helpful staff members present at the service."

"They were spectacular! My stepfather was employed by Dale Gunter Funeral Home and prearranged his funeral around 20 years ago. Anderson McQueen took over the account when Mr. Gunter retired. I wasn't sure what to expect, especially since so many years had passed since the arrangements were made, but Aimee took such great care of everything, I needn't have worried. Wally was living about 40 miles away when he passed away in the early evening. They came and got him right away and proceeded with his care the next day. He was to be cremated and buried out of state, and there were some issues with the other funeral home. Amee truly went out of her way to stay in touch with the other funeral home and overcame several challenges that really weren't in the realm of responsibility of Anderson McQueen. The USPS misplaced in transit the envelope with the death certificates in it, and she is assisting with that also. Although my stepdad did not wish to have a traditional funeral service, I would strongly recommend Anderson McQueen to anyone looking for the best possible experience in what can be a stressful and trying time. I'm sure all of your funeral directors are top notch, but I can't say enough about how awesome our funeral director was, and a great asset to your company!"

"Thank you for taking our phone call on a Sunday (9/11/16) that gave us such peace and allowed us to begin our grieving process. You are a true good friend. I apologize for any discomfort we or any of our family members may have caused. Our funeral director was a true gift, an Angel, that held us through the entire time. We can't say enough about her kindness, caring & professionalism along the way with all the unexpected that occurred. Thank you all and may God bless you. Respectfully, Tom & Jane Watters"

"Hello my friend, I wanted to let you know that I am safely back in Miami tonight, and all went smoothly. TSA was very nice, and did not do anything to disturb Mom’s ashes. They simply swabbed the outside of the box, and let me on my way. Agents never asked me for any documentation, and were very respectful.

Thanks, though, for providing the paperwork I needed, just in case. I offered the certificate of cremation, as well as the letter you provided me, and that seemed to immediately have agents recognize there was nothing suspicious going on. The documents made me feel relaxed as I passed through security.

Thank you as well for the ride to Outback, picking me up, and taking me to the airport. That saved me time, money and stress. You went well out of your way today to help me in my time of need. I will never, ever forget that. You are a wonderful, caring soul.

I sincerely appreciate your help with not only my dear Mom’s cremation, but also my Dad’s in 2016. I felt I was a part of your family. That’s extremely rare in today’s hustle and bustle world.

Your parents raised a caring and compassionate man. I saw it in action, and felt it as well.

Take care for now, and God bless… I know you and Anderson McQueen will be there if I need anything in the future."

"On behalf of my mother, Jacqueline, myself and my family, I want to thank you for the caring and wonderful way you and your staff took care of my stepfather. From the initial meeting to the ceremony at Florida National Cemetery, everything was done with care and respect. You and your staff were professional and compassionate and I know my mother thought that was wonderful. You made a difficult time a little easier. Thank you again and God bless you."

"I just wanted to pass on that Serenity Funeral Home in Alabama mentioned that you were one of the best funeral homes they've ever dealt with...that your professionalism and attention to detail was second to none. I also want to let you know that everyone greatly appreciated the way the service unfolded with Father Kevin. When he asked someone in the audience to come up and sing a cappella. It turned out to be a real blessing to all of us and so special. The sharing was amazing including hearing from his boss. Overall, it was as good as experience as one could ask for under the circumstances and you all did an awesome job. We are grateful. Many blessings to you all, Kurt"

"From the moment my husband and I walked into your funeral home I felt welcomed and comforted. I dreaded and feared this process since I have never had to make final arrangements before. You have thoughtfully anticipated a clients needs at this very sad and emotional time in ones life. Your kind demeanor and attention to every detail was appreciated. My husband and I thank you for that."

"Anderson McQueen Family Tribute Centers is at the apex of the industry when it comes to funeral arrangements. They are comforting, professional, and masterful at grief management. Our funeral director was so calming and reassuring that it made our loss much more bearable. Anderson McQueen helped bring peace of mind to our family. Thank you for your service."

"From the beginning of pre-planning to the final wake and funeral process, I could not have asked for better care. The time of loss is never easy. Guidance and support are so valuable.

"Thank you for your continued support of my family and our needs during our recent loss of my brother Keith. Anderson McQueen did such a wonderful, caring, thoughtful and thorough job at every turn with respect to our grieving family members. In all of our dealings with my brother Keith, and our use of Anderson McQueen after my dad who passed away almost two years ago, I can honestly say that your company excelled at every level of contact. Best Regards, Adam"

"I am sorry for the delay in completing your survey. I just realized I never completed it while reviewing emails. I am responding now as I felt a need to give you rave reviews of my Mom's service. From start to service every employee was caring, courteous and professional. Everything from the staff, catering of the food, services and follow ups were above and beyond. My Dad, daughter and I all appreciate everything you did for us, our family and our friends, but especially Mom."

"They were wonderful to work with as they walked us through this difficult time. Time was of the essence, and they ensured all of our needs were met, from a last-minute obituary to finding a speaker for our service with very little notice. They stayed late to help us, and we now know missed a personal engagement to help our family. I cannot express enough how much my family and I appreciate his help."
