“For such a sad occasion to have to bury someone, the team at Thompson, Hall, and Jordan located in Forest Park on Winton Rd. provided exceptional service. The team that participated in some way to make my family comfortable during this trying time was, Lauryn T., Ashley W., Deanna R., and Teresa C. With compassion, they cared for us from the first meeting through the normal navigation process to the grave. They handled all of the paperwork and offered suggestions when we were clueless. Their ongoing service did not end with the burial. I was able to call back with more questions. Most of them, they could answer right away. Any they had to research, was done in a reasonable amount of time, and reported back to me promptly. Although my family and I missed many of the deadlines in the plan, the staff never chided us about it. They continued to serve the family with dignity and respect.”
“There are not enough words to express my eternal gratitude for the phenomenal job that your company did to handle my husband’s funeral. My husband the late Bishop Gary L. Shearer was a man of excellence, and my choice of Hall and Jordan was the right decision. Everything was done in excellence and far exceeded my expectations. I am so happy and please that I chose Hall and Jordan, especially to have Lezlee BuBois-Watson as our funeral director she works in such excellence. Lezlee went above and beyond to accommodate all our wishes and did so in such a fast and efficient way. She demonstrated an extraordinary example of customer service with heartfelt caring and compassion. The entire staff went out of their way to make sure every step of our journey was as smooth as possible. Mr. Darrell Dennis our funeral attendant was especially helpful, and I felt like he genuinely cared. The undertaker made my husband looked amazing and the barber did a perfect job, as I was the only other person to groom my husband for the last 20 years, and he did not disappoint. This experience changed the whole memory of his passing to a beautiful bittersweet cherish-able moment, and I am so grateful. Thank you on behalf of myself, Transformations Life Ministries and the entire Shearer family. Apostle Sharon Shearer AKA “Sharon TheWeavemaster””
