My testimonial is a reflection of the "love " that Drew Lundgren and his staff has for the lose of loved ones McHenry handled the funeral for my mom, Anita Whittle--one would not think this small detail important, but my mom loved the color red She painted her finger nails red. When I went to view my mom's body. She was dressed in a red suit that we had given McHenry, but more importantly--someone knew my mom because her nails were painted red--immaculate. My mom has been gone 24 years now. Year later, husband Bill Goslow will pass. An unexpected death. McHenry handled all the arrangements of Bill's cremation. Such care and compassion for our family. We surrounded Bill with all the cards that his former students had sent our family, his fishing vest...McHenry took such care and supported our family during a very difficult time Following Bill's death, my father, Les Whittle passed My did did not want a service, but after countless visitors came to see him at my home. He changed his mind. Dad served in the United States Navy. His service at McHenry reflected full colors of honor. Drew at McHenry was compassionate and guided our family through another difficult lose. Dad was buried at Williamette National Cemetery. McHenry helped to arrange a beautiful farewell to my Dad---full colors 21 gun salute--- I can't thank McHenry enough for supporting our family. I am forever grateful for their heart-felt kindness--support, compassion....unending love. Becki Whittle-Goslow

It’s not easy losing a loved one. I was lucky enough to have Mary help me through the loss of my husband as we have been friends for nearly 20 years. Having her help myself and my daughters was amazing. Ryan is one of the gentleman that came to my home in the middle of the night. I have since gotten to know him through friends on a personal level. He is one of the kindest people I know. McHenry is lucky to have him as most people could never do what he does. Love to Mary & Ryan ❤️ Thank You for everything!
