My mother's passing has been the hardest thing that I have ever been through. The first few days can seem paralyzing. Lane Pilkington treated my family and I with such a deep compassion. He helped us through every step of the way. They did an amzing job on my mother. She looked just like herself, just asleep. The gentlemen who escorted my mother to and from the ceremony were very professional. They even gave me a rose as the pallbearers were carrying my mother out. I am 100% satisfied with the services and treatment that we received. There aren't enough kind words that I can say about our experience. Thank you.
Our father passed away one year ago today, and we used Schaudt's Funeral Home. Impeccable, compassionate, courteous service. Everyone at Schaudt's understood our wishes and were so very kind during a most difficult time. I even received a text today from them, honoring our Dad's memory. A heartfelt thanks to everyone at Schaudt's! Highly recommend!
Shawn Wright was helpful when our mother was in the care of hospice and we were in need of making some advance decisions. Mom wanted to be cremated and by a local company. Shawn was very kind, explained our options and had me fill out the online form so there would be little to do once she passed. When mom passed on in November hospice called Shawn and they took over from there. Jason was also kind and helpful. Jason didn't try to sell us anything we didn't need or want. He was wonderful to work with in such a difficult time. I was surprised when he called to check on me a week later and even followed up with additional information about grief counseling and support groups for family members.
I am happy to recommend Schaudt's Funeral Service and Jason and Shawn in particular.
Before my Mother's passing she was adamant about using Schaudt's in Okmulgee for her service. She resided in Florida, and it was my lucky day when I called and talked to Lane Pilkington. He was the perfect person to handle everything, and his attention to detail and assistance was invaluable. He went up and beyond my expectations every time. He even arranged a deaf interpreter for one family member and she was exceptional. He hooked up a keyboard and mic for another family member when things didn't appear to be working. His respect and care was very much appreciated. Thank you Lane for a marvelous service.
Schaudt's funeral home made the hardest time of my life a little easier. I lost my husband to cancer on Jan 22, and obviously was a complete mess. I couldn't decide on anything or get myself together to be on time. They were so understanding and comforting. Lane was so soft spoken and so respectful when he came to pick my husband up the night he passed. His kindness kept giving the following days durning the viewing and funeral. He did everything he promised he would do, and even went over and above to help me through the emotions I obviously couldn't control. He worked with me financially, and even went out of his way to take a picture of tattoo that meant a lot to me so I would always have it. Mrs. Ann and Mr. Gary that take care of all the office stuff were just as kind with everything that needed to be handled. They are the kind of people that you wish were your grandparents. I will entrust the celebration of my life with them, and strongly encourage anyone else that unfortunately has a loved one called home!!!
