Services & Facilities

David Henseleit & Richard:  -  My sincere thanks in the wonderful manner you so graciously prepared my sister's funeral services.  You were most helpful in every way, making the ordeal so much more easier for me.  Your business facilities are all so convenient and pleasant, making it a pleasure to work with you.  The guests enjoyed the after service reception.  I received a letter of thanks from the Cottonwoods residents.  Thanks again, Sincerely -  Eileen Childress.

To, Dave, Clair and staff,  - Words cannot express my thanks to you enough.  The kindness, compassion and sensitivity you have shown at such a tragic time will never be forgotten.  I know you deal with this on a daily basis, but for those of us who don't, we truly appreciate your thoughtfulness, guidance and co-operation in seeing our loved one is remembered as the person they were.  Sincerely,  Hali and Mikayla Dietz & Hal, Judy and Devon Sandvold.

Dear sirs,   Having used your services now for two funeral arrangements, I would be remiss in not writing to you to say just how much we appreciated the professionalism shown throughout these two sad occasions for our family.  On behalf of my brothers, their families and myself, I commend especially Dave Anderson and Richard Henseleit for going above and beyond in their exceptional attention to detail and unceasing heartfelt caring and compassion shown to our family and friends.  You do a difficult job very, very well!!  ...  I would not hesitate in recommending your services to anyone who, through the death of a loved one, needs you.  Keep up the good work, and bless you all.  Thanks again.   Sincerely   Vicki Potter.

Caring & Thoughtfulness

Richard & David   -   On behalf of my family and myself, let me say 'thank you' once more for your care and compassion towards us.  Giving our loved one's body over to you people for burial was like giving it to a good friend - one who cares!  May our Lord continue to bless your ministry among us here in Kelowna.  In His love, Florence Mohns.

Dear Werner;   Thank you for your kindness to me and my family during the death of my mother Annie.  Richard looked after everything for us in a very professional way...  I enjoyed the opportunity of working with you from time to time.  You folks do such a great job with a sincere Christian love.   Sincerely  Pastor J. Henry Clarke.

Dear David,  I wanted to write to thank you for all you did for my family and I... Like you told me, losing a baby seems so tragic, but you made the situation easier with the trust you were able to instill within me.  You provided us with privacy and gave us your complete attention... I felt like you were truly there for us and I have a hard time expressing my gratitude in writing.  You will forever be remembered for your sincerity...  Shawna Palmer.

Dear David,,  We can't thank you enough for your compassion and caring during the most difficult time of our lives.  You did a beautiful job on Ian and it helped to ease our pain.  There are no dress rehearsals for this and the dignity and concern you showed us far exceeded our expectations.  You and you staff went the extra mile and we will be forever grateful.  The service was beautiful and please pass our heartfelt  thanks to the gentleman that did the video, he did a fantastic job.  You truly are blessed and no words can express fully how much we appreciated everything.  God bless you, Ron, Robbin and Sheri Minion.

To the managers and staff at Springfield Funeral Home.   Thank you so much for your help at this sorrowful time.  All our family and friends were so impressed.  You allowed us to carry out the funeral as we wanted it, and went along with us all the way.  Thank you again, we think you are great.    Sincerely, Y. Nixon.

Burke & all the staff at Springfield Funeral Home:  Randy and I would like to thank-you so much for all you've done concerning E.Z.'s viewing and funeral.  We will always treasure the wonderful memorial video you put together, as well as the reception after the funeral.  Your kindness and support in our time of need was greatly appreciated. Thank you again, Sincerely Rand & Sandra Zahara & rest of the Zahara family.

When we mentioned a special consideration, it was immediately and efficiently taken care of.  I should mention too, that your charges were lower than we expected and represented excellent value.  We are now only too happy to refer other people to you, knowing they will be gently, fairly and respectfully treated.  Thanks so much,  The Syd Thompson Family.

Body Presentation

Springfield Funeral Home,  I just wanted to to say thank you to all who were involved in my grandfather's funeral.  I hadn't seen him much over the last few years, but he always looked sad and tired.  My final memory of him now will be that he finally looked at peace.  I would also like to thank the gentleman who was helpful and kind to my daughter and myself that day, it was greatly appreciated.   Denise Farion.

Dear 'Family',  It will be two weeks tomorrow since we buried our mother C.H.  We have so many good memories, but also sad memories of her suffering, we'd like to forget.  You helped us remember the good and beautiful things.  You fixed mom up beautifully - she seemed so much like I remembered her about 30 years ago.  Thank you for your kindness towards us the night she died, the day we made arrangements & then your patience trying to make everyone happy, your participation at the visitation... Sincerely,  Kathy

Dear Burke & staff,   -   Thank you very much for your help in arranging my mother's funeral.  You and your staff made us feel comfortable and relaxed.  We were all very pleased with the preparations for my mother.  She looked calm and peaceful.  Wishing you all the best.  Heartfelt thanks The Broski family.

Thank you again,   Rosemary Bolton, Debbie, Doug Bolton

Dear sirs:   Just a note to thank you for the professional services receive from you.  Please pass on our thanks to Brad for singing so beautifully... and playing the piano so special.  Thanks also to the caterer- the sandwiches and treats were delicious and nicely served.  Thank you also for the beautiful memorial book,  Best regards,   Annette and Henry Funk.

Dear Dave,  My special thanks to you, your staff and especially to Clair for the thoughtful & caring attention you gave to my mother's service.... every detail was taken care of...  The entire service was personal and touching.  My mother would have enjoyed it ( & who knows maybe she did?)  She would have loved the gathering of friends & family at the reception and the reception room was perfect.... Yours truly  Patricia Osborne.

Thank you very much for making the funeral services less stressful and doing as my husband's wishes were to have it carried out with simplicity, The Noel Family, Eunice Noel.

AfterCare

To the management & staff of SFH,   Our family wish to thank your staff for the very professional service you provided for my loving wife.  Also the special care we received following the service.  Bob Marros & Family

Dear Friends at Springfield Funeral Home;    I would like to thank you for the lovely rose, the book "Will I Survive This Pain" and the nice card.  I did appreciate the visits too.  They meant  a lot to me after Cy's passing.  I had been ill too so your kindness has been appreciated.   Sincerely Helen Forrest

Dear Mr. Werner Henseleit,   Myself and my husband would like to thank you so very much for allowing us to take part in the Grief Recovery Program.  It has touched our lives so deeply and made an impact that will last a life time.  Thank you for helping us heal!   Laurie & Glen Bowman

After the funeral you continued to finalize certain aspects of the burial for us, but you also checked in with my mother to see how she was doing.  I was touched beyond words when I heard of a visit that was paid to my mother 2 months to the day that my grandfather died.  She was brought flowers and a booklet, and was encouraged to share in conversation how she was doing and more about who Antonio had been.  She was even asked to share photographs of Antonio.  In my opinion that was beyond just regular business follow-up but confirmed my belief that Springfield Funeral Homes genuinely understands and cares what a loss of a loved one means to a family....  Sincerely, Sandra Dillon.
