We were very disappointed with the honesty and integrity of Olinger Crown Hill Mortuary and Cemetery. Our Mother had purchased and paid in advance for her grave site several years ago. Upon her death just recently, we met with the funeral consultant representing Crown Hill who explained to us that even though the burial plot had been paid for, there would be an additional $8,800 fee to intern her, which included a casket costing $1995. There would be no service, processional, or viewing service, however, the cost for administrative and processing fees were over $6,000. Then when we changed the internment date from a Monday to a Saturday, they doubled the cost for the graveside service from $550 to $995. We contacted another Funeral Home - Newcomer - who only charged us $5500 for everything - including a $2400 casket. But Crown Hill refused to reconsider the additional cost for a weekend burial fee - which was doubled. Steer clear of Crown Hill. They are a rip off! Their is no way this funeral home can justify their outrageous fees. They know they have these grieving families in their web and feel no remorse for taking advantage of them

CALLED to see if my friend was having a casket, service ,,or did he get cremated? the guy ansewered, very rudly, if the sevices or tomarrow then he got cremated! wow then hung up! im shocked,,

I LOST MY LAST LIVING RELATIVE (MY UNCLE BOB) ON MY FATHERS SIDE OF THE FAMILY IN APRIL OF THIS YEAR. HE LIVED IN COLORADO AND I LIVE IN HAWAII.WE WERE THE ONLY FAMILY EACH OTHER HAD.I WAS TRULY DEVASTATED BECAUSE I KNEW THAT THERE WAS NO WAY THAT I COULD EVEN GET TO COLORADO HAVING JUST BEEN LAID OFF AND BEING A SINGLE PARENT LIVING PAYCHECK TO PAYCHECK.ALSO, NOT KNOWING WHAT TO DO, WHO TO CALL OR EVEN IF HE WOULD BE BURIED PROPERLY I WAS VERY VERY DEPRESSED AND FEELING WORTHLESS THAT I COULDN'T DO ANYTHING FOR MY UNCLE.LET ME JUST SAY THAT ONCE I WAS PUT IN TOUCH WITH "PIPKIN BRASWELL" I STARTED FEELING THAT THERE WAS ALIGHT AND THE END OF THE TUNNEL.ALVIN TOOK ME THRU WHAT NEEDED TO BE DONE AND KEPT RE-ASSURING ME THAT HE WOULD BE MORE THAN HONORED TO ACCEPT MY UNCLES FLAG ON MY BEHALF AT HIS MILITARY FUNERAL.HE KEPT IN TOUCH WITH ME VIA E-MAIL AND WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND WHAT A FUNERAL DIRECTOR DOES. HE TOOK PICTURES, ACCEPTED THE FLAG AND HAD THE FUNERAL CARDS MADE.HE THEN MAILED ALL THIS TO ME @ NO EXPENSE TO ME. HE PAID FOR THE PHOTOS, THE MAILING AND THE PRINTING OF THE BROCHURES.A MILITARY FUNERAL ONLY INCLUDES THE PREPARING OF THE BODY AND DELIVERING IT TO THE CEMETERY.ALVIN WAS A GOD SEND AND I CAN NEVER EXPRESS WHAT IT MEANT TO ME KNOWING THAT MY UNCLE WAS LAID TO REST WITH DIGNITY.IF EVER YOU ARE NEED OF FUNERAL SERVICES KNOW THAT "PIPKIN BRASWELL" IS TRULY IN THE BUSINESS OF CARING FOR PEOPLE.I WILL BE FOREVER GRATEFUL TO THEM .NICOLE GILLESPIE

During a time of need and emotional distraught, I received the best service and compassion I could from a funeral director and service. He was patient and understanding, gave me more time when I asked for it and went above and beyond his role and duty to make sure I was comfortable. I would recommend his services to anyone and am confident you will not be mistreated and will be pleased with the customer service given!!
