Vander May Wayne Colonial Funeral Home, Inc.

Charlie and the team at Vander May’s are exceptional. The passing of my father was the hardest moment of my life. My family and I are beyond grateful for the professionalism and incredible service we received here. Charlie walked us through every step and then some with the utmost kindness and patience. His team created the most touching collage tributes to my Vietnam Veteran father it brought tears to everyone’s eyes to see how their work memorialized him. They obviously care a great deal for the families that walk through the Vander May doors and I would not hesitate to recommend this establishment to anyone who has lost a loved one.

Go here for a funeral for your loved one! Charlie and the staff did an amazing job working with me through this difficult process. The constant graceful communication and patience despite all my questions at all hours of the night and many requests was greatly appreciated. I was worried that I wouldn’t have sufficient photos collages and they went above and beyond even surprising me with custom creations that I will likely frame or use again at an annual memorial celebration. The attention to detail and quality helped to facilitate a beautiful tribute to my father. While the process felt like an intense wedding to plan, Charlie directed the process with grace and tact each step of the way providing me with some comfort and reassurance as I wanted perfection for this final walk down the aisle with my dad. The Cemetary and church were also coordinated by Charlie and he made this easy as there were multiple moving pieces. The morning of I was a little upset because the posters I printed were too large and weren’t laying right but Gareth went to the rescue and was able to trim the edge and posted it so it would be perfect. I loved the photo handout for all guests and the laminated cards and laminated obituary. Even the donation cards were a nice touch. They provided me with an extra glass bowl so I could supply gum for guests and accommodated my every need and question. I loved the program and directions that were provided to the guests. Also, they packaged up everything in a neat bag with a bow. This place is top notch and I’m SO GLAD I put my trust in Charlie and the staff at Vander May! Thank you for a beautiful day to remember my dad!

Honestly they are the last people you want to deal with because of the business they are in. But I can assure you the entire team here are the ONLY people you want to deal with during this time. Sadly I lost my parents 17 months apart. And they handled everything above our expectations both times. They were caring and listened. Words can’t describe how thankful my family and I were to have them assist us. Again…you never want to have to think about dealing with a funeral home but if it sadly happens there is no one else I’d choose.
