Reviews of Berger Memorial Chapel (Mortuary)

The people are so wonderful and compassionate, I can't imagine using anyone else. They thought of every detail and made our lives simple at a time when we needed to have help from people that cared. I would recommend them to everyone.

I found the people at Berger to be professional, sensitive and informed. They answered my questions, were available for multiple phone calls and were patient and kind during this difficult time. I have the utmost regard for the organization and the services they provide.

We held my fathers funeral at. Berger Memorial. What an easy chore this was. Emily MacDonald made everything so easy from beginning to end.

During a time that is devastating as going through the loss of a loved one, I was beyond pleasantly surprised at the quality of service Berger Memorial provided. The Director was like a shadow on the day of the funeral, coordinating everything, make sure all aspects were taken care of - even to the point of having an umbrella over my and my Dad's head in the rain. Nobody tried to push or upsell us to different services or features - he just simply provided the information we needed to make decisions. I high highly recommend! Heather Schneider Battison

It’s never easy. Losing a loved one is painful but Berger Memorial did a wonderful job helping us work through the difficult task of planning a funeral service. They guided us without any pressure and made us feel like we were the only family that had ever suffered a loss. The service was beautiful, both in the chapel and graveside. I wouldn’t have improved upon anything.

Emily and Richard were so incredibly compassionate and I wanted to thank them for that. It's people like them and their staff that make difficult times of loss a little easier! Thank you for being so good at what you do and know that you are fulfilling your calling. My entire family want to thank you for your kindness and your wonderful service. Also thank you so much for going above and beyond by mailing me a copy of my Mom's funeral service.

We were quite impressed with every aspect of Berger Memorial. My mother's funeral was planned about a year before she passed away and from start to finish we were treated with respect, kindness and understanding. Emily demonstrated warmth, knowledge and empathy all through the final days before her funeral. Richard's experience helped us feel comfortable during this process. Everyone at Berger Memorial acted in a professional matter. Thank you. Sandy Wasserman

Mike Sniegocki took charge from the moment I called Berger until the day of the burial. Everything was done properly and with caring and kindness. Each item was explained and all questions answered. Our wishes were followed to the letter. We could not have had a better experience under most difficult circumstances Thank you for your consideration and kindness.

Steve Weinreich

The services offered and the delivery of everything promised were exemplary. Thank you so much for easing our sad burden at this time.

Marc Leavitt

The staff could not have been more considerate and compassionate. Our funeral arrangements required long distance transportation of the remains and burial immediately after a terrible snow storm in St Louis. The chapel service was flawless followed by a police escort to the cemetery. At the cemetery a tent with 2 walls protected the mourners from the cold wind. The metal chairs were covered and we were given lap blankets for our comfort. Berger Memorial was very easy to deal with. They were very patient and thorough which made our responsibilities less of a burden.. We highly recommend Richard and Emily.

Richard Stein and Emily Mac Donald of Berger Memorial Chapel performed the impossible by staging our mother-in-law, Charlotte Sherman's funeral only 36 hours after her passing. Richard and Emily, the entire Berger Staff and their team made a very difficult situation bearable with their compassion, organization and attention to detail. They are amazing. Mike and Wendy Flotken
