Why Plan Ahead

More than 80% of people think planning in advance is a good idea, yet few know where to begin. It is easier than you think and we can help.

We have helpful counselors who will help you understand your options and let you make choices which are right for you.

How much planning you do is up to you. Some people only like to have a preference for burial or cremation documented. Others go all the way to choosing music and naming participants they would like in their ceremony.

    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.

    When you have to go thru this difficult time it is so great to have Jim helping you. They did my mother in laws arrangements so I thought I would try when my mom passed . They were amazing . The price was more than fair & Jim took so much off my plate . They were professional to a T. I had so many worries & Jim took care of everything , My Mom looked amazing . So do not use the large companies they will just rip you off & hire inexperienced "kids" with no compassion to help you at a difficult time ! Different from last time is a beautiful web site where friends & family can post .. That helped too , people could even send flowers via that site ! Very professional . Thank you to everyone at Stork for a beautiful job.

    We used Stork this past month when my Mom died.
    Jim Stork was kind and very helpful. He showed us the caskets he had and told us the price with no pressure to buy something expensive. He handled transporting her from the coroners office and to the cemetery . We planned our own service so did not use those services from Jim.
    I would highly recommend him! He was very efficient and easy to work with.

    The compassion, empathy and care given to our son and our family by the staff at Stork-Morley, especially Kyle, who personally took care of our son and all his arrangements, was phenomenal and above-call.
    They were quick to reach out, quick to respond and went out of their way to care for him during one of the hardest and darkest chapters in our lives. We are forever grateful and so thankful that we found Stork-Morley and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of end-of-life services for their loved one. Stork-Morley provides funeral care and support, not just funeral services.

    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.

    We would like to thank Leonard and Rebecca for the love and support that they showed through this difficult time. Leonard went above and beyond what was asked or expected. They showed the love and compassion of our lord Jesus to our entire family. This is not only thier profession but it is truly a calling that they walk wonderfully in. They honored my mother Elicia Herrera so well and I did not have to worry about a single thing. They were right by our side and walked step by step by my side keeping me informed every step of the way. Though this difficult time I gained a brother in Christ and I highly recommend Stork for all future services. I thank you Leonard from the bottom of my heart and I pray blessings upon you both always!

    This mortuary, especially Leonard, took such amazing care of us and my son. He gave us extra time to pray over the body when they got him from the morgue and the did a fantastic job with him. He looked so peaceful. I highly recommend them.

    First and foremost I would like to thank Leonard for his exceptional service he provided to my family during this painful time of loosing our matriarch (my mother). We had called other places and felt like we were getting taken advantage of it was terribly overwhelming, then I was referred to Stork Mortuary from a family friend. They treated us with patience, respect, and guidance. Times like this your at a complete loss and this man listened and made us feel like we were important and not just a client. I highly recommend going to Stork Mortuary. They worked with our budget and didn't try and push things we didn't need on us. I would have not been able to get through this without the service I received. This company and Leonard went above and beyond to make sure my mother had a beautiful service. Even after service I was contacted to see if I was doing ok and that means a lot. A million thank you's to Leonard and his wife. I will never go to another place.

    Leonard was absolutely amazing to work with. He made an incredibly difficult situation so much better. His gentleness and kindness was beyond what we could have expected. He treated us like family and went above and beyond by helping with additional paperwork. If you've lost a loved one please go to Stork and work with Leonard, he will offer so much peace during this difficult time.
