"I have always loved the appearance of the Fortville facility, it is more comforting because of the "home" effect it has, versus the funeral home appearance. Everyone was so helpful and followed my wishes to the "T". My mother's appearance was so beautiful and so "peaceful." This has been a big help to me with my ability to handle such a huge loss. The staff members were so gracious to my family and helpful. He returned all my cards and his follow-up was so thoughtful. Casey was a great help also. The leaflets you sent were so timely sent and the information was very useful. I passed them on to my family members. The respect the Erlewein family showed toward my needs and concerns was so above and beyond."

"Very pleasant atmosphere. Very responsive. Not having been through the process before, I appreciated the online information and step by step decision and time allowed for them. Loved the Dunkin Donuts served at the visitation. Everyone who knew his love for DD got a chuckle. I appreciated the timeliness of delivery afterward."

"Exceptional, we were very pleased with all aspects of the U.S. Forty Greenfield Facility. We had a little trouble getting the kids out of the play room:). My husband and his brother were not really ready to lose both parents in such a short time, but all the staff at Erlewein were wonderful to help out with the planning of both funerals. Dad in February and Mom in June."

The rose left behind in his room was a special final touch, too."

"You have a beautiful building; the design of the interior is very calming. The use of a kitchen was especially helpful and a "normal" place to gather and mingle. The staff is absolutely wonderful, always so kind and supportive. Dane- Mom was particularly fond of you! We have no issues in making any arrangement or the service. Everything went smoothly, including the trip to Salem. Mom just loved going on your trips. She would call the day after and give us all the details!"

"The facility was wonderful, we enjoyed that the feel was more modern and not over done with floral patterns. The children's room was great and very much appreciated. The entire staff was wonderful, very helpful and understanding. Greg did a wonderful job with the service and kind words he shared. The celebration of my dad’s life was wonderful, everything was done well. We had no concerns not addressed and the planning seemed to be seamless and quick. The staff is wonderful and the facility is very comfortable. Accommodations for our family were over and beyond. We have only received wonderful comments on the presentation and how wonderful Greg and Holly were for us."

"Your facility was/is top notch. I've never been to a mortuary that provided coffee and drink machines and a place to consume them. Kids playroom was a very big hit. Your entire staff was so nice to all of our family and answered questions, fixed errors, gave us attention when needed, all while being polite and knowledgeable. Our family came to know your family through both happy and sad circumstances but even without that personal connection I'd recommend you to anyone."

" I could not have asked for a better place to have my husband's service. The staff was very helpful and always willing to help. They made the family feel like they were part of them and showed caring and love. Thank you for everything. I tell everyone how you made my family feel and would recommend you."

"Location is great, very clean and neat appearance inside and our are beautiful. All Staff was very kind, concerned and helpful in many ways. Making arrangements were very easy, very thoughtful.

"Everything was excellent. Everyone in the family was pleased. The staff could have not been more caring or helpful. I especially appreciated the final touches on Mom's appearance."

"I cannot thank you enough for the way you conduct your business- as before you make me feel like family and like we are just planning a family celebration-and it was-she was beautifully cared for-God bless you all."

"Excellence is the word that comes to mind. The children's play area was wonderful and provided a much needed distraction for the children. The water with lemon was so appreciated and a nice touch. Really everything was wonderful, and I've witnessed a lot of funerals. Dane - Mom has told many people about the respect you showed when picking Dad up from the hospital; we so appreciated it. Evan - you are one of the best in the business, so thankful we know you as a friend as well. All the guys who worked the callings, funeral, graveside were wonderful. BJ - Thank you for working with me over the phone to get some of Dad's arrangements started."

"I rate (Erelwein Mortuary) superior. Location is very good and easy to find. I could not have asked for any better. Everyone was so kind. My family and friends all gave a good word. You all have been a good support group. (My husband) and I made our arrangements together, best thing we did, for it was just wonderful. My Grandkids enjoyed the (Bullfrogs and Butterflies) you had with them. I think that is very thoughtful. The releasing of the doves was wonderful. A very good ending."

"The cosmetic appearance of my mother was beyond belief. My mother's appearance and beauty was the best she has looked in nine months! Very natural! Thank you!"

"From our very first visit from your staff, we were impressed with the compassion you had with my mother and how you made sure she was ok with everything with my dad. Even the Hospice personnel commented on how impressed they were when you came to pick up my dad. If we even looked like we had a question or concern, someone came over to us to see what they could do. Your service was above and beyond what we expected. This experience was not our first, but was certainly the most pleasant. Your entire staff made this easier with your compassion, information, and assistance throughout the entire process."

AAAA++++. We wanted to let you know we were truly impressed with Evan. He made everything perfect and his knowledge with all issues gave us great confidence with Erlewein. Evan helped us tremendously!!! Everyone was great with us. All of our needs were met 100%. We were very relaxed at Erlewein's, the staff was wonderful and Evan was a great asset to us and your facility. We really wanted to thank Evan and everyone involved in meeting and directing our needs to make all of the setup and funeral process as pain free and relaxing and comfortable for us.

"We appreciate so much the cooperation in arranging matters to our liking even though some of it was different from the usual. We couldn't ask for more."

I have already recommended your services to other friends of ours. Thank you for all that you did!"

"The nicest facility in Hancock County, which made Dad's funeral so easy to manage. The location on US 40 made it so easy for out of town visitors to find and immaculate appearance lent real class to such a somber occasion. The staff was very courteous and professional and Dad's appearance was superior. My compliments to the entire staff at Erlewein Mortuary. Service was first-class quality. Evan Osborn made the chore of making arrangements nearly effortless for our family. His attentiveness to our every need made this solemn time extremely easy to accept." "I would just like to express my deep gratitude for your sincere service toward our family during this difficult time. Your professionalism, your attention to detail, and your caring support meant so much to us. In a world where 'service' seems to have taken a back seat; you not only exemplify it, but you 'kick it up a notch'! It's so good to know there are people like you all who are there to help, guide, and support families who experience the loss of a loved one. With sincere gratitude."

"I couldn't have imagined a better funeral for Jr. Everything went just as it should."

"I would just like to express on behalf of (our) family how truly pleased we were with the staff of Erlewein Mortuaries. We felt privileged to have you in our community to guide us through the most difficult times of our lives with the passing of our father and our mother. We were treated with respect and felt the staff were truly concerned with our needs. Great care was taken to make sure no detail was left unattended preparing Dad and Mom for the service. We felt very pleased with the way they were presented and the quality of the service as a full. It was also much appreciated that at the last minute we overlooked notifying one of our relatives that we needed them to be a pallbearer and Greg Johnson stepped up and took on the role as pallbearer for our Mother, which was greatly appreciated and once again showed us that Erlewein Mortuaries truly cares about the families and it isn't 'just a job'."

"Dane, thank you for lifting our heavy hearts during this difficult time. (Our family) has used your facility before with our in-laws and found it very peaceful and pretty and easy to get to. I never gave it a second thought when (my husband) passed to take him any place else. The home is so nice and all the employees are courteous and ready to help with anything you need. I would like to thank Dane especially. He helped me slide through it all with a lot of peace of mind. I think the kids felt this comfort, also. I want to thank all of you with all my heart for making it so easy for all of us. If at any time we can recommend the home, we surely will. God bless all of you."

"You have all been so wonderful in helping us through our difficult times. (My husband) had much respect for you and wanted to be at "Erlewein's". Many people commented to us about the work you do. God bless all of you as you serve the public. He will reward you! We as a family are so pleased with all you have done for us. I am so happy (my husband) chose Erleweins quite some time ago. He had much respect for all of you and our family feels the same way. God bless you!"

"Thank you so much for everything. I had no idea how much it would mean to me to see my Dad as I remembered him, rather than how we saw him at the hospital. I didn't realize how that would affect me - but you did. I so appreciate the care and effort you put into your work - you did a beautiful job and really blessed us in that! Thank you! We are very thankful for the way you handled everything (especially us!) and for the opportunity to meet so many caring people from Erleweins. Each one ministered to us in a unique way. We are beginning to understand why Dad requested you to handle his funeral arrangements. We pray God will bless each of you as you minister to families during a time of great need. You have blessed us!"

"I would like to thank you for the wonderful care and compassion you showed to our family during the loss of our mother. Mom looked very elegant and would have been pleased. You guys are great people. We are lucky to have you serving our community during such times of loss and sorrow."

"You do not know how much we appreciate the kindness shown to us at the loss of my husband. The making of arrangements and all that goes with it, making sure we had everything we needed, and your friendly, caring ways made things so much easier for you. I would highly recommend you to anyone who has to go through this. You were highly recommended to us. Always stay doing the things you do! God will bless you for your kind and caring ways."

"Everything was wonderful. Evan was so caring and kept checking on everyone through the entire process. We couldn't have nicer things to say about him and the rest of the staff. The process of planning to the day of the funeral was made almost effortless with Evan's help. He's truly one of God's angels. You have a very nice staff and should be proud to have them all."
