“As a resident of NJ I expected to have a difficult time making arrangements for a loved one that had passed in Madison, WI. Fast forward to Gunderson Funeral Home whom I was referred to. From my initial phone call to discussions with planners and directors, Gunderson made the process easy and comforting. Communication was constant from start to finish and they even surprised me with the opportunity for aftercare at my request. I highly recommend Gunderson Funeral Home to anyone that requires compassionate and personalized care in a time of need.”
“Our son passed away suddenly and unexpectedly in Madison, WI in March 2026. I was referred to, and received a call from, Susan McKay from Informed Choice Cress Funeral Homes, in Madison. We live in AZ and trying to figure out how to handle this from afar was daunting. From the moment I heard Susan’s kind, calming voice, I knew I was in good hands. Susan made an extremely difficult experience much easier. She was efficient and professional. She did what she said she would do, when she said she would do it. The whole experience from the start to the delivery of our son’s ashes to our home was seamless. The Informed Choice is a invaluable service. I highly recommend Cress Funeral Home and the Informed Choice option. And Susan McKay for her kindness, caring, and efficiency!”
