I would like to express my profound gratitude and appreciation for the exceptional services provided by Stephen & his staff during the recent passing of my beloved husband, Michael.

From the very moment they arrived at our home, I was met with an unparalleled level of professionalism, compassion, support and attention to detail.

Thank you to each member of the team who played a role in making this difficult time more manageable.

I wholeheartedly recommend Howell’s to anyone in need of funeral services. Your services provided great comfort to me and my family during this difficult time.

Stephen and Heather are very loving and caring people. At the hardest time in ones life of losing someone they love dear, they both know how to make things easy and the comfort and compassion they give is beyond expectation. When my mother in law passed Stephen and Heather went above and beyond. I can't thank them enough. So blessed to have these amazing people surrounding my family and I at a difficult time. Thank you❤

Stephen I just wanted to say thank you for the service and dedication that you showed during the passing of my grandmother. She would have been very pleased. As you know she thought the world of you and I know you thought a lot of my grandmother. The service that you provide I honestly believe comes from your heart. You show everyone the same amount of dignity and respect and it shows. Thanks again and may God continue to bless you as you bless others.

Stephen went above and beyond to make the hardest days of our lives a little easier. I have never seen anyone as dedicated as he is to making sure his customers are satisfied. He thought of things that were perfect to help honor our Daddy's life. All the special touches mean so much to us. God Bless him, his sweet Mama and staff.

Mr. Howell and his staff were a blessing to me and my family as we prepared to honor my wonderful husband Gerald when he went on to Glory. He arranged transport from San Antonio and handled all aspect of the process as well as the military ceremony with full military honors. Mr. Howell also took excellent care and concern for my family this time and 4 years ago when my Dad went to Heaven. He is a true professional and was gracious at all levels and made this truly sad time a bit more manageable. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts and God bless you and your staff.

Heather and Steven are amazing! They make the whole process easy and totally go out of their way to ensure everything is the way you want. They are totally committed to having compassion for the family and showing dignity. I was dreading planning mom's funeral but Heather made it super easy and kept in touch. I cannot thank the Howell's enough!

I would truly like to thank Howell Funeral Home for the professionalism you showed my Mom and family when my Dad passed in May!! The helpfulness of Stephen and Heather made this extremely hard time easier. My sister used this facility a few weeks before when my brother -in-law passed. In 1999, when my father-in-law passed, we started this journey with Howell. They have always made everything so easy and felt like family to me. Thanks Again!!

I cannot begin to thank you enough for the love, care and compassion that you showed our family during the most difficult time we have experienced. My mother was the light of my life and this was, by all means, the most difficult time I have ever experienced. Stephen and Heather… The two of you made this experience so much easier to cope with and provided our family with the comfort of knowing that my mother was being cared for with tender loving care. Thank you and God bless you!

Stephen we truly want to thank you for all you have done for our family. You are great to work with. You have done three family members in the past seven years. YOU were great with all of them, but you outdone your self with Walda Jean Talton you made her look so pretty. GOD was with you because with her we thought we would not be able to open her casket but we could after you finished with her. I PRAISE GOD FOR YOU AND THE JOB YOU DO.

Thank you for the kindness extended to our family during our time of grief. You really showed how much you care as a member of our family and as funeral directors. The food you brought was delicious! We also appreciate all the special touches you added to the funeral—the pictorial scene on the vault, the video tribute,the music and singing, as well as the horse drawn buggy hearse.
It was ALL special. You outdid yourselves!!! We love you!!!

God Bless you,

Mr. Howell, Thank you so much for helping my family and I through this transition, after my mother’s death. You and your staff provided excellent service and helped make what could have been a difficult experience, much more bearable. I’ve never had to plan a funeral before and one doesn’t know all of what is involved in that process,unless they go through it. Thanks again for your professionalism, courteousness and ensuring that my mother had a beautiful home-going service. I know my mother would have been proud and very pleased that we were able to give her a wonderful service befitting her.
Thanks again on behalf of me and my family, for providing such great care and service. Sincerely,

Thank you all for everything you did for our family following our dad’s passing. We received several compliments about the way his services were handled. We really appreciate your thoughtfulness and caring. Sincerely,

We want to thank you for the efficient, timely, caring way you carried out our mother’s funeral. We don’t know of a thing you could have improved on. We thank you for all your kind considerations. Sincerely,

We thank you for all you did for us during the saddest time of our lives. Your experience at what you “do” surpasses anything I’ve ever seen when it came to doing Grant’s Celebration of Life Service and burial- you all were fantastic!
I am glad God guided us to Howell Funeral Home for help. God Bless,

I just wanted to once again tell you how much it means to me and my family how you both went above and beyond.
I will never forget how beautiful everything was.

The darkest day in my life was when I heard the news that my mother had passed on. Your staff was there to plan, prepare and comfort. And for the care and concern you did take, it made things easier and for this I thank you very much.
My family and I will forever be grateful.
