Testimonials

At David-Donehower Funeral Home, our care for families does not end with the funeral. Each family that we serve will receive our family survey form, which when completed, allows us the opportunity to learn more about how we serve our community and whether or not we were able to address every need of the family. The survey enables us to improve our service to families in the future. Please take a moment to read just a few of the testimonials received from families served:

"Shawn was great to work with, as he was very caring. Felt like he was a part of our family. He has a sense of humor that worked for (our family). (We) were very satisfied with the arrangements, that's why we chose David-Donehower."

"Very satisfied. Everyone at David-Donehower did a great job. Thanks for being a sponsor of Bob Becker's Old Time Radio Show."

“…How Grateful I am for all you did for our family to make mom’s death and subsequent duties related to funeral plans, etc. so easy. You have no idea how much I appreciate not only all you did, but also, Kim sitting with me in an effort to get a program that was so Bev. She is remarkable. I also know there were other staff involved who I did not meet that made sure the visitation and funeral were perfect. And it was perfect. There are no words to express the dignity and honor you showed my mom, other than my sincere and heartfelt thank you. I can only hope the life I live will warrant the same honor you showed to mom.”

"The staff at David Donehower Funeral Home is so professional and have been so helpful and respectful in every experience I have had with them."

"We were extremely satisfied - they went "Beyond the Call of Duty" in service. They could not have been better. They are very compassionate people. Even though it has been a month they are still there for a person, they are wonderful people, the world needs more like them."

"Just a note to let you know how much our family appreciated Shawn Nygaard as he helped us with the funeral of my father-in-law two weeks ago in Detroit Lakes. He did an outstanding job and went beyond our expectations. He was there for us during a difficult time and words do not express how helpful he was."

"Dave is excellent - we would never consider going elsewhere, everything was perfect."

"David did an excellent job and we did not feel pressure at all and all of my wishes were granted and everything attended to including making burial arrangements 3 ½ months later at Fort Snelling. We were so impressed. Dee helped me with the photos on the service folder, without her time and expertise this would have not been done."

"They went above and beyond, we had the memorial service at the Community Center so more arrangements than normal were made and they were done graciously!"

"My husband had his funeral planned and they took care of all of his wishes. I was very satisfied with my husband's beautiful service. They fulfilled all of my wishes."

"This is such a long overdue Thank you to the David Donehower Funeral Home for doing such an amazing job at our mother's funeral. And a special thank you to Shawn Nygaard for all his hard work, dedication and willingness to help out in whatever way possible - from the start of the process to the end, to assure a wonderful ceremony and tribute to our mom. We so appreciate his time and talents as well as your whole staff for making our family feel like a part of your family. God's Blessings to each and every one of you."

"David worked around our schedule and in an expedited manner. He was very compassionate and thorough. David was just fantastic during our difficult time. Would have been much different without him. Thank you, David."
