Compassion & Serenity Funeral Home is awesome. Black Owned and very professional and customer service is excellent and does an over and beyond job. They are very caring and just like the name of the funeral home, They listen to you and your request.

Dani showed professionalism, compassion and courtesy. He listen to me and my wishes and he understood and asked me to allow him to handle the rest and to take time to relax and not to worry. Dani said, it is going to be a Celebration of Life for my son and it was! Dani took care of my son and he looked great. The arrangements and the service was truly awesome. I was amazed and in awe.

It was truly a Celebration of Life, like I never seen before. Rating all a 10+. Dani, I am so appreciative on your professionalism and the handling of my only son and the arrangements. My son got the Presidential/Dignitary's Home Going. It was over and beyond of what I expected. Police Escort! Oh my! it made me cry, I loved it, Praise dancers, showcasing my son's vest, badges, cuts outs of my son, crowning my son and his name in lights, having police officers doing the last call and a singer & pianoist, live viewing for those who were not able to attend and the flag presenting. It was beautiful and awesome giving my son his last ride on a motorcycle & carriage to my son's resting place.

Dani of Compassion and Serenity Funeral Home, did an exemplary job. He said it was going to be a Celebration of Life and it truly was for my son. Many Many Thanks and Accolades to you and Compassion & Serenity Funeral Home.

Compassion and Serenity funeral home comes highly recommended by me. I was devastated when I had to bury my 19 year old son. From the time my family and I walked in the door Dani and Wes made us feel so welcomed and assured us that everything would be ok. They were very patient and empathetic. My grandmother and I had lots of questions and they answered every question.

Wes explained to us that his specialty is ensuring that a natural look is maintained as much as possible, and he over exceeded our expectations, my son looked so handsome.

Dani told me to relax, and let him do his part, well, he absolutely did his part. This consisted of praise dancers BEAUTIFUL, crowning BEAUTIFUL, doves, BEAUTIFUL! All spiritual parts of the service that were so amazing.

This is a black owned family business that really gives their all. I am so pleased with their service, professionalism and the way that they treated my family.

I am so grateful for them and they truly live up to their name Compassion & Serenity.

On behalf of my entire family, we would like to extend our thanks and gratitude for arranging our family member's journey home. Compassion and Serenity Funeral service opened their arms to our family. The entire staff was pleasant, respectful, and courteous. You were there for us every step of the way and fulfilled our every need, comforting us and supporting us like you would your own family. From day one, they exhibited nothing but compassion towards our family. They answered every question, returned every call without hesitation, and stopped by our home to check on the family throughout the process.

The memorial service was exemplary. The slide show of pictures was magnificent; it enabled us to celebrate life rather than remember his death. Thank you for contacting the florist to ensure we received excellent service. You handled every detail with class, style, and understanding. At a time of great stress, you relieved us of those heavy burdens. We cannot thank you and your excellent staff enough for that.

Please know that this has made a difference that each one of us will always remember. Daniel and Wes, our family, wish you all continued success in your career.

Sincerely,

The Family of Fred Scott

Today my daughter buried her husband. It was your impeccable, professional, and caring guidance that saw her through, and us, through. It was a home going fit for a king. Your care, and personal touches from inception, through to the burial is to be commented. Thank you for taking such care. I thank God for Blessing your organization with such caring and creative talent. Talent that takes comforting care of persons in what seems an unbearable struggle with grief and heart break. I'm certain Tracy is smiling with glee in his journey to the otherside, because he was honored in grand style today. And it was You who made it possible. On behalf of my family, Bless you, Bless you, over and over again. Sept. 22, 2020 AP

When my mom passed I was nowhere near prepared. I had no idea what my next steps were. I was introduced to and met with Danny and Wes from Compassion and Serenity Funeral Home. They were so understanding they knew what we were dealing with mentally and emotionally with the loss of our mom. The love and compassion that they showed us made us feel like family and made planning for our mom services that much easier. They walked us through everything step by step before we make any decisions that showed us that they cared about us.

Once all the preparations were made, we ran into the issue of dealing with the covid-19 and we were unable to have a full service for my mom. Although my mom wishes was to have a service and be cremated under the circumstances we were unable to have a full service.
But we were able to give my father the closure that he needed and he was so grateful and satisfied for the compassion and care that they showed my mom and how so, so beautiful she looked. And that's What mattered.

I just wanted to say thank you so, so very much. The care that you took of mommy was just immaculate. The compassion you should for her just valuable. You did such a wonderful job under the circumstances that we were facing and I can't say thank you enough you were such a blessing to me and the family. I will highly recommend you. I can't thank you enough I never seen such compassion.

COMPASSION AND SERENITY FUNERAL HOME SHOWED NOTHING BUT LOVE
My mom had just passed , me and my sister had no idea where to begin. We were referred by a family member to Compassion and Serenity, I called made an appt and from that phone call forward Dani, Wess, Twanitta, Ashely, and the entire staff was nothing but an absolute pleasure to work with. They made the hardest task I ever had to deal with so much more easier for me and my sister. When I say they were there when we needed them, they answered every question, took every call, answered every text we had, they took their time with us, made sure we were satisfied. Such good people to work with , very professional and down to earth at the same time. Made our time of grief so much easier. THE WHOLE TEAM LITERALLY TOOK CARE OF US.

There are not enough words to describe the impeccable service that Compassion and Serenity Funeral Home showed me and my family. My mother look so beautiful at her homegoing serviee. When I ready to give up due to becoming so frustrated from trying to make sure everything was in order, Dan Skinner kept me from giving up by counseling, guiding, and comforting me and my family. Compassion and Serenity went far and beyond to make sure everything was done in an orderly and professional manner. The resources that they provided to us to make the arrangements for my mother showed the same comforting and support along the process. I am forever grateful to have been able to experience the all time high of professional services that was given to me.

Dani, Wes and Company definitely live up to their name. They are truly “Compassionate “ and there is an air of “Serenity “ and comfort as they walk the family through the funeral process. Dani has a very calming, confident demeanor which assured me that he had things under control. When we viewed my husband’s body, I was amazed at how lifelike and peaceful he looked. They walked with us along this journey, providing comfort, reassurance and I was very pleased with the work Compassion and Serenity did from beginning To the end.

My family worked with Compassion and Serenity for my father-in-law's service. Words alone can not express the level of our gratitude to them for how they served us. They went above and BEYOND to make sure EVERYTHING was done with care and thoughtfulness. They worked vicariously to make certain that everything was done perfectly. We received top notch, white glove service and I recommend that any and everyone entrust the services of their friends and love ones to Compassion and Serenity Funeral Home. They offer new contemporary and classy ways of laying love ones to rest, as well as traditional, conventional home going services. They do it ALL. You will not be disappointed.

Wes Chavis and Dani Skinner of Compassion & Serenity Funeral Home
I must thank you for all the time you spent with my family. Explaining each step helped us make decisions and feel in control of a very hard situation. Thank you for arranging for Janice (my sister) to be taken to the church. Ensuring that everything went as planned, on time in place and accurate. Crowning my sister as the Queen she is. The Horse and Carriage Transport was beautiful, the doves were right on time. It was the most beautiful service, never witnessed anything like it. Excellent service and attention.
I will definitely refer your services to anyone in need of these services.

THANK YOU!!!!!!! Y'ALL ARE THE BEST

In reference to my nephew Jeffery Price's untimely death, I inherited a family in Compassion and Serenity funeral service.

They balanced professionalism with a personal touch that brought the family comfort and peace.

I need you to understand that my nephew died in a dirt bike crash however; his body was handled so well by Compassion and Serenity that we were able to have a fully open casket.

I give Compassion and Serenity funeral services a million stars!!! They aren't just a funeral service provider they are now my extended family.

I highly recommend Compassion and Serenity funeral services for all of your future home going services.
