Murdoch Funeral Home & Cremation Service - Marion

“My mom was always adamant about two things when she talked about funeral planning: it had to be handled by Murdoch’s and she wanted it to be a Celebration of Life, not a funeral. We honored both of those wishes and working with Oglesby and the staff at Murdoch’s was a very special experience. They listened, spent time with us, understood what we wanted (and what we didn’t know we needed). Our family definitely felt the personal support and appreciated how caring and professional they were. Would highly recommend. ❤️”

“Murdoch's did a wonderful job of caring for our loved one's final wishes. They made a difficult time easier and showed great compassion while helping us navigate the funeral services. Our funeral director Caitlin was on top of everything. Much appreciation to the staff.”

“We are so happy we chose Murdoch Funeral Home and Cremation in Marion for the arrangements for our Beloved Brother. Every single person we worked with was so caring and helped us make important decisions. They were GREAT!!!”

“The family of Aaron Thompson, Marion, IA, will be forever grateful for the compassionate care offered to us by Murdoch Funeral Homes following the unexpected death of our beloved husband/father/grandfather on November 16. At a time when we really needed guidance and comfort, Funeral Director Lindsey Sherman greeted us with professional yet very personal attention. The thoughtful, unhurried responses to our questions and the peaceful surroundings were a great solace. Ultimately, when we left the funeral home, we felt so much more able to, as Aaron would say, “Keep on keeping on.” Thank you so very much. Sylvia Thompson, Leigh Anne Thompson Ratliff, Derek Thompson”

“Very caring and respectful staff did a great job helping our family navigate my mother’s funeral arrangements. Went above and beyond for us. I would recommend Murdoch to anyone wanting a friendly staff that helped us get through a rough time in life.”
