Unfortunately have had to use these services several times in my life and each time my family and myself were treated with respect and caring. Leon, then Chris treated us like they would have treated their own family. Thank you for being there in our time of need

Losing a loved one is traumatic and it rocks your world. In the middle of your grief, there are so many decisions that need to be made. Chris Bode has now handled the funerals for both of my parents, and he is the epitomy of kindness and compassion. I am so grateful for his patience and guidance while making arrangements, during the services and afterward. Everything was beautiful and professionally handled.

I hope these words accurately portray what's on my mind. I say that because sometimes it's difficult to put into words what my heart feels. Chris and the staff at Gibson-Bode made this most difficult time in my life manageable. From the first day of making arrangements for my bride's visitation and funeral, a calm came over me while talking with Chris. I was able with my kid's help, to make the very best decisions that I believe my wife would appreciate. Visitation day was so beautiful. My wife was beautiful. It was a large gathering but everything flowed smoothly and I believe my wife was smiling from heaven. Chris and staff were so helpful with the many questions I had and did so much more to help than I expected. No one wants to experience the death of a loved one but it is a part of life. Thank you Chris for your choice of profession. Your faith, your calm and professionalism do not go unnoticed.
