We have used the pet cremation services at Loyal Companion and we were always treated with kindness and compassion. When my mother passed, I knew who we wanted to handle the arrangements for her. I had no doubt that Panebaker Funeral Home would treat her and us with the same respect and care as they had always done. Although it was very difficult to deal with such things, as always it was easier to handle knowing that we were all in good hands. Thank you for all you do for our community. We appreciate you.

We had Panebakers when my Dad passed away in 2021 and now for my Mom in 2024.I was 100% pleased with each person that I had interaction with. The 2 gentlemen that came to the home my Mom passed away in to the extremely kind lady who answers the phone, they were super compassionate and answered my questions. As I was emotional on the phone she just had complete understanding of my pain in the loss of my Mom.Everything was gone over for arrangements that were made. The costs were fair. Mike was very helpful and called me after hours with a question I had. I had such a peace working with the great people at Panebakers as I went through the hardest time of my life. Thank you!

As devastating as it was losing my Dad between Christmas and New Years from the initial call made to Pannebaker Joey was very receptive and understanding. She tended to our family's needs and requests in an extremely professional manner even fielding calls and emails from me on her off days to make sure our needs were met. Joey even delivered the eulogy that my siblings and I could not get through. I would without hesitation refer anyone I know to Pannebaker!
