“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!”
“I cannot say enough about how Gunderson walked us thru our journey. From the time we met a couple of years go to discuss and confirm Ted and my arrangements to the day that we had to walk this road, everyone was so kind and helpful and truly grieved with our daughters and myself. Allyssa and Janelle went out of their way to bring comfort and understanding to the entire process. We are very fortunate to have Gunderson Funeral home in our hometown. The after care that is offered will be helpful as time goes on.
Thank you all so very much for making a rough time in our lives easier.
God Bless, Ann, Stephanie, Jennifer and family
I would be remiss if I did not mention the After Care service that Kathy Oxford had with me. She was very thorough and patient with all my questions. It was a tremendous help with knowing what things needed to be done and who should be contacted. After our conversation, Kathie sent me an e mail with everything we had talked about. That was very helpful and I have referred to it several times. Again a very professional, helpful and caring funeral home.
