Impressed – thoughtful, caring and understanding. I would encourage anyone dealing with the difficult planning for a loved one to reach out. The entire staff is amazing. My biggest concern was would my dad be cremated by himself. Jim explained that Stork-Bullock owns their own crematory, that gave me an instant peace of mind. This was most important to me. I reached out to Stork-Bullock when my father suddenly passed away. Leonard answered my call on a Sunday morning when another well known mortuary didn’t bother to call me back. Leonard talked with me and explained exactly what would happen. He even made it a point to call me when he had picked up my dad. It was very meaningful. I made my appointment to set up arrangements and worked with Jim, he was completely understanding as I asked a lot of questions about the process, I was at ease with my decision. The care continued as I picked up my father remains, the woman who assisted me was thoughtful. I was happy with the urn I choose and the plaque was so pretty. Stork-Bullock Lakewood is highly recommended. Thank you to all for making the process calming, I knew my dad was in good hands which took a tremendous amount of stress off of me.
It's been over 14 months since my son died tragically and unexpectedly, but I will never forget the kindness and compassion that Jim Stork showed to me and my family. An unexpected death of a young person requires extra compassion and attention (in my humble opinion). Jim knew just how to handle our situation, never pressured us about purchasing anything extra, price was so reasonable and he knew just what to say to comfort us. His building is quaint and feels more like a family home.
