If you have found this testimonial its for a reason. Stop scrolling. Mikala and Addison Funeral home are the right choice. We recently lost our oldest son, our 17 year old, in a tragic kayaking accident. Our hearts were shattered. I couldn't even function, yet the care and compassion Mikala showed us our son were like no other. I felt like, no-strike that, I KNOW she was truly there for us. I wont say this was made easier by her, because there is nothing easy about losing a child, but her grace, knowledge and compassion made all the difference and I couldn't imagine not having her by our side through this. Her attention to detail still catches me off guard. The way she took time to listen to us and get to know our son still brings tears to my eyes. When I couldn't put together a play list, she was all over it, and it was exactly what he would have loved. I held my son's hand and was singing him a song, and hours later she was able to tell me exactly which song it was. When my daughter wanted to color her brother another picture, Mikala already had exactly what she was wanting queued up and ready to print. When we needed extra water for my diabetic uncle, she made it happen. When I came back a week later and mentioned I wished I had a picture I never wanted or asked for, she had it already for me. When we needed everything to truly represent our son and the teenager her was, she helped us make it happen. The love she showed our son in the time she had him meant everything! When my husband told her I wanted to to tuck our son in for the night before I saw him again the next day, she made it happen. When she was finished preparing him, she made sure to let me know she tucked him back in for me. She communicated every step of the way with us and had answers to questions I didn't even know I had. I hope no one ever has to feel the loss of losing a loved one, but if you do, you need Mikala in your life.

Losing my husband has been the hardest loss I could ever imagine. Our family wanted him to have the beautiful service that he deserved, so we chose Addison Funeral Home. The funeral director, Mikala, is the most professional and supportive person I have ever met. She gave me a referral to a counselor for when I broke the news to the kids about their father’s passing. That is a BIG deal because I had no idea how to go about that situation. The service far exceeded my expectations. It was an open casket and Mikala really captured the beauty of my husband. Although it was really hard to look at him in a casket, he looked very peaceful. My husband was cremated and we were able to order necklaces that would be filled with his ashes with the help of Addison Funeral Home. I will cherish my necklace forever. It is evident to me that Mikala is very passionate about bringing comfort to anyone who is faced with the loss of a loved one. She is truly amazing. I honestly would have been lost without her guidance and compassion. Thank you Mikala and thank you Addison Funeral Home.

Addison Funeral Home helped my family with my mothers funeral a few months ago and I can’t say enough about Mikala, Taylor and Syvannah!!! Mikala was very professional and helpful during a time when you are at a very sad time in your life and was very patient in dealing with our family regarding making her arrangements and offering her professional advice. Taylor and Syvannah were very helpful with getting everything we requested from the services on a flash drive for the family!! Addison is very close, convenient, affordable and understating when you loose the loss of your loved one! I highly recommend them. You will NOT be disappointed!! They offer every kind of service you will ever need.

Finding the right team and final arrangement services for my sweet Nana had been a bit of a process. From the moment we walked into Addison Funeral Home and met with their Funeral Director, Mikala, our family knew that this was place we had been searching for. Finally, we found a funeral home that fully understood our wishes, took the time to get to know us as a family so they could better bring our vision to life, and helped us to understand the process. We are so grateful to the entire Addison Funeral Home family, and especially want to thank Mikala for her services. It is clear in the way she communicates and by her actions that bringing peace and closure to families is not a job, but a passion of hers. We felt validated and well supported through out the process of planning, the passing of Nana, the viewing, and burial services. Our family was given the opportunity to be as involved as we desired with the preparation for the viewing; making a difficult day that much more special. If you are faced with the passing of a loved one, I believe it would be a great comfort to you and an honor to their memory to pursue the services of Addison Funeral Home.

I highly recommend Addison Funeral Home. Mikala and her team of associates were a blessing in our families time of need. When inexperienced and faced with a devastating loss. They never took advantage. In fact our loved one was cared for as if they were personally known and loved by them . The care they provided extended into our family and friends. They pay attention to details and listen to concerns and create positive results. I was unprepared and interviewed several places. Exhausted I almost settled, something told me to continue on and I’m so happy I did . That’s when I met Mikala I knew almost instantly that Addison was the right place to trust ! I wasn’t wrong ! We got bonus services of love and quality care! They weren’t the most expensive choice! But should be!

I can not say enough about Addison funeral home. My daughter passed on June 9th and Mikala somehow made planning for my baby's services so easy. The love and compassion she has is mind blowing. The staff was so sweet as well. When calling around for funeral homes I was sickened by the robotic sound of people listing off prices and not asking what we were actually wanting. This place is heaven sent and I can't thank Mikala enough for her kindness and care for my daughter. She even helped me paint my baby's nails and braid her hair for the very last time. She will hold a place in my heart forever.

The staff was extremely professional and responsive. My siblings and I had some difficult decisions to make when our mother passed away rather quickly and this is one of the choices I can say I would do exactly the same way if I had the chance. The staff was able to work with us, the cemetery, and our father's funeral home to help us lay our parents to rest together in a place where several other family members rest. Thank you so much for your care and attention.

Mikala, Thank you for everything you did for me as I went through this hard journey. You were so easy to work with and were so kind, as I asked so many questions.

Addison Staff, I wanted to thank you for all of your help. Thank you for understanding that we were from out of town and needed to take care of our son. You all went above and beyond to help make everything happen as quickly as possible. You answered our questions and helped us understand the process, and helped ease our minds on the sufferings of suicide; not only to the person who committed it, but for those of us that have to endure it after they are gone. Your compassion and hep meant everything to us. I thank God for all you did taking care of our son for us.

We appreciate all that y'all did to meet our needs during this time of such tragic heartbreak for our family. I'm so glad that one of my dearest friends mentioned your funeral home during our first conversation about Austin's death. Your words of sympathy and the bag of "goods" that y'all provided were so very kind. We especially thank you Glenn, for being with our family on the Saturday of Austin's burial and his memorial service. That meant more to us than you probably realize.

The reason we had to use this place is unfortunate, but the service from all three ladies was impeccable. Mikala, Taylor and Syvannah accommodated me every step of the way, even with a few questions and issues (not from them, but hospital) after the the service. We chose this place because we have held a few services over the last few years at this location and have been pleased each and every time. Thank you, thank you, thank you for making the celebration of life so memorable.

Addison is such a wonderful place in a dark time of your life. Unfortunately, this is my 3rd time using them but every time they have been so great. Taylor is so sweet and caring and every experience I have had has been phenomenal. And....they don't price gouge you like some places do. They put you first in every way.

Mikala, I wanted to take a moment to thank you for the wonderful and exceptional service you provided for my family yesterday. You are a true professional and we most certainly thank you for your attention to each and every detail. We could never thank you enough for your generosity during such an untimely tragedy in our family. We will grieve for many years to come that we had more time with Judy, but one thing I have learned is that life doesn't gradually slow down to give you ample opportunity to say goodbye, sometimes it takes a sharp turn. You make a difference in people's lives and for that we are eternally grateful.

I don’t leave many reviews, good or bad, but I feel that our experience with Addison Funeral Home warrants this. The loss of my brother was unexpected and a very emotional period for our family. Mikala and the staff were beyond helpful and accommodating to my family. Patient, kind, and always demonstrating compassion. I greatly appreciated their guidance with the overwhelming decisions that needed to be made during a difficult time.

Navigating the waters after the loss of a loved one is always difficult. Thanks to Mikala, Taylor and Savannah, my brother and I had an easier time of it. Mikala especially, was with us every step of the way planning our father's celebration of life. She is very knowledgeable, personable, patient, genuine and compassionate. Having her available to us the day of his service was comforting and we will forever grateful to her and those at Addison Funeral Home.

Mikala...There are no words. There is not enough I can say about her. Unfortunately our family is too familiar with Addison Funeral Home, however, Mikala makes a really hard time a little easier. When I lost my Dad...she was our rock and thanks to you we were able to handle everything. And today, with our Nephew...well...again you rose above and beyond any expectations. Thank you Addison and Thank you Mikala for everything ❤️

A neighbor of ours used Addison Funeral Home for their loved one's viewing and cremation services. We were so very impressed with their professionalism and compassion throughout the process. The Addison Staff was extremely kind and respectful of the culture differences our neighbor presented to them. I've been to many services over the years but The Addison Funeral Home went above and beyond to assist this family during a very sad moment in their lives. Thank you especially to Marshall, Mr. Addison, and Alex for an amazing job!! Thank you dearly for handling this family's situation with the utmost respect!!
