Reviews of Leitz-Eagan Funeral Home (Mortuary)

Pam ELLIOTT

During the most difficult time of my life, losing my son while he was living in New Orleans, over 1000 miles away from me, I was very fortunate to locate Leitz-Eagan Funeral Home in Metairie, LA. After calling 3 funeral homes in the same area, (one was $200 more for exactly the same service offered at Leitz-Eagen, and the other funeral home employs the most incredibly rude man I've ever encountered) I chose Leitz-Eagan, and would recommend them to anyone. They had been my first call, however I had been advised to "check around" - even though I was pleased with my initial contact, I did check other establishments, finding immediately that my instincts were correct regarding Leitz-Eagan. After many phone calls during our long drive to Metairie, not once did I encounter anything other than caring, sympathetic and knowledgeable staff. They are to be commended for their patience. Additionally, Director Joseph Eagan treated me as though I were family. Mr. Eagan offered advice when needed, answered every one of the many questions I asked, all the while offering much needed comfort and understanding during a time it was most appreciated. Mr. Eagan's professional demeanor exemplifies not only knowledge and skill of his profession, but also that of a kind, understanding and compassionate human being. Thank you, to all staff members at Leitz Eagan, for taking such a horrible task and making it bearable. The comfort your assistance provided cannot be measured. Most Sincerely, Pam Elliott (Mother of Daniel Disney)

Under the circumstances I think that your service was exceptionally good. Maria cared for our family as if she were a member of our family. She took all of the stress out of planning the funeral from beginning to end. We Are forever grateful to her for that. Thank you so much for your services.

My husband and I encountered an extremely difficult time when we lost our lovely daughter in a tragic accident. As new immigrants, we know nothing about a funeral in the U.S., but Mr. Eagan explained everything very clearly and guided us to go through every detail. The kindness, caring, sympathy and patience of the staff there have greatly comforted our broken hearts. The price at Leitz-Eagan is very reasonable. The extra work they did to make things what we had hoped for, even beyond, are greatly appreciated. The professionalism and graciousness were outstanding and we will never forget. We would recommend Leitz-Eagan funeral home to anyone who is seeking a funeral home for his/her loved one.

Purchased a pre-planned cremation policy here with Sean Melendreras. Sean was very professional, respectful and responsive. He knows his services and did a thorough job of explaining the many and varied details involved. I recommend him highly.

I never thought I would be compelled to write a review of a funeral home, but I must say Brian Jennings really made everything as easy as it possibly could. The home is very well laid out, comfortable and even provided a TV I could use for a video and slideshow. Brian has the perfect calm personality you need in these times Thank you so much for taking care of my dad I am grateful

Sylvia Kamp was very professional and made us feel very comfortable during the entire process planning our services with your funeral home.

Leitz-Eagan went above and beyond bringing comfort and guidance at a time when decision making was not a priority. More importantly, we cannot say enough about Maria Gregorio. Because she added such a personal touch to our past experience, we requested her services at our most recent time of need. We have used Leitz-Eagan's services a few times in the past and will continue to do so for future needs.

I have used Maria at Leitz-Eagan 3 times since 2010. Every time, Maria went above and beyond what I expected. She covers every detail and suggested things that saved me money. She is the epitome of a professional. The other person, that I dealt with is the person that did the music and video. She was also very professional and kind. I had used another funeral home in 1992 and they were the most insensitive people I ever met. I would never go back to them and they were much more expensive. I felt like they took advantage of a 42 year old grieving widow. Maria at Leitz-Eagan was the extreme opposite. I have recommended them to many others and they too have been very pleased with their service. Thanks for being so wonderful to people during a horrible time and not being vultures just trying to take advantage of people grieving.

Brooke with Leitz-Eagan did an outstanding job in assisting me and my family with my Father's arrangements. Her attention to detail, and her prompt reply to all of our emails and phone calls, were very much appreciated. The entire staff of Leitz-Eagan are to be commended on making the services very dignified and meaningful. Our families wishes were honored in the best possible way. We thank Brooke, and everyone with Leitz-Eagan!

Mariana Melgar

I don't know where to start from the moment we walked in it was nothing but love so much love and caring. The staff or more like family members are most understanding and very patient with us. There goals where making sure that our love one would have the most beautiful service ever. Thank you so much for all yall did for my family and I.

During this difficult time, Lietz-Eagan was there for my family. They went above and beyond anything I could have expected. The customer service was impeccable, and the empathy showed was sincere. I would specifically like to thank Morgan, Maria, and Kelsie for all of their hard work. Morgan actually cut out extra obituaries for us, and she answered any questions I had within a few minutes. Kelsie gave me her personal number and showed tremendous compassion. Maria helped orchestrate the viewing service perfectly and was there for our family throughout the entire process. Thank you so much for everything.

Charlotte Hanks

I was not impressed with the staff or the service we received when my mother passed away in 2004. Would never use or recommend these people.

At a very hard time for my family and I, Maria was very professional, kind, and understanding. She made our time easy for us by taking care of everything. I can't thank you enough!

Mr. Bryan or Brian was so helpfull in his experience concerning our father. He was humorous serious very self-explanatory and to the very end I can't say any more about Brian
