Featured customer testimonials

We love hearing from the families we serve. Their feedback helps us continue unique and meaningful celebrations that honor loved ones with unparalleled attention to detail.

My family has been patronizing Labenski's since the mid '80s. The most recent passing of my mother was made much easier with the help of Wendy and then Bob and his associates from the church to the cemetery. I can't thank everyone there enough for their assistance in what was a most difficult time.

Michael made this time of sorrow and need flow smoothly and efficiently. Not knowing what I had to do to legally clear matters during the unexpected passing of my mom, he provided me the knowledge of all the things the funeral home takes care of when I didn't know which questions I needed to ask.

Mike Nowak had called me to discuss the funeral charges in great detail in person at the funeral home. Always had a pleasant smile while explaining questionable items, and advised me of things I wasn't aware of. Thanks to you for making me feel like I was important
