E. Franklin Griffiths Funeral Home & Cremation Services, Inc.

Sanks got my back

When my WW II Veteran Father started hospice the head nurse asked if the arrangements has been made yet, Since they had not she suggested I start calling around to local Funeral Homes. So I took her advice and made a list of 10 local places in White Haven, Freeland, Drums and Weatherly. I started calling down the list inquiring about direct cremation services which was my Father`s written wishes,
I cannot tell you my revulsion at the despicable people I had conversations with. They all asked breathlessly if a family member had died. When told no they wanted to know if a family member was about to die. When I would say no that I just wanted some pre-planning pricing quotes you could hear the disappointment in their voices.
They then all turned into used car salesmen, offering me today and today only five to eight hundred dollars off their standard cremation costs if I signed up today and the quotes were all high and some downright ridiculous.
Finally I connected with Sank and not only did he have the best price he sounded like a really nice human being. Upon meeting Sank he was everything he sounded like on the phone and much more.
He was one of the finest, kindest, most compassionate people I have ever met in my life. I really cannot say enough about this man, he is the genuine article.
You will not regret entrusting your loved ones last chapter of life to the care and stewardship of Franklin Griffith III.

Sank and the staff of Griffith Funeral home have shown friendliness and genuine compassion with the recent loss of our mother. We extend our sincere thanks to them for helping us through life’s grievous times.

Sank Griffiths and Staff have been a god send with not only helping my father plan my stepmoms funeral but with helping him deal with all the paperwork that comes after. I really don’t know what or where we would be right now without all of your time, help and generosity over the past few months. Thank you so much from my Father, myself and our family!

If anyone truly needs compassion and understanding in their lives it is when you lose a loved one. Sank and Sandy from Griffith Funeral Home/Phillip Jeffries Funeral Home have been a blessing to myself and my family. They have everything under control for the family all you need is to ask. They do the legwork so you don't have to. The meal after the service was all I needed to plan. They handled everything with respect and helped me through the most difficult time in my life when I lost my father. I will be eternally grateful for their professionalism and ability to handle anything. Thank you Sank and Sandy. You are the best. God bless you both.
