Dear Anthony & Opal,
Thank you for all of your patience, knowledge and kindness. My sister and I could not have been more pleased with everything (and you know she's tough). As my sister kept saying
"Everything Anthony did was spectacular." She was of course correct! We know our Mom would have loved the "sendoff"! We did for sure!

Dear Mr. Anthony Bongarzone,
My family and I would like to thank you and your staff for taking care of the preparations for the viewing and funeral of our dear wife and mother, Cecilia T. Gadenz. During our initial contacts with your funeral home we felt that we had reached out to a supporting family, not just a business. That feeling of support, love, and care on your part was experienced throughout the whole process, the viewing, the special videos, the prayers you said before going to the church, and the funeral itself concluding at the Mount Carmel cemetery.
You paid great attention to every detail and everything went so well. So again, thank you very much from the bottom of our heart. We will always recommend and encourage people who look for a sensitive, caring, and professionally competent funeral home to reach out to you.
Gratelully, Renato Gadenz and family
