Our family recently experienced the loss of my brother unexpectedly and the staff at McDougal Funeral Home were there for us during every step of the way. Eric made time for us and we never felt rushed or pressured during any step. They make you feel like family and even check up with you to see how you are doing and if they can help weeks after the funeral. I would definitely recommend their servicesπ
Stacey Flack
McDougal thought of everything! From first contact they were honest, kind and very respectful. After the funeral they stayed in touch to make sure we completed all after death tasks and made sure we were doing ok on many occasions. We all were so thankful how they took care of us and our loved one. I cannot say enough! Thank you!!!

Greetings to all. Iβd like to share a few words to highlight McDougal Funeral Home, for the services that Mr. Michael McDougal and his wonderful staff have provided to me, my family, friends and to my beloved (deceased) brother, Dwight βChilaβ McCray. R.I.P πWhen the passing of my brother first came to my attention, unlike most, the news was devastating to say the least. I was without answers, words and certainly didnβt know the right decisions to make at the time. I will try hard to be few in words.This is how I can best explain my thoughts. McDougal Funeral Home was the first establishment mentioned to me, as a recommendation to the family, where my beloved brother would best be taken care of. This information came directly from first responders on the scene, police, fire department, ambulance and a personal family doctor. Without hesitation, I immediately contacted McDougal Funeral Home, and spoke to a gentleman named Michael.Immediately upon speaking to Michael, a stranger, I certainly felt the uncanny feelings of a person who displayed genuine compassion, empathy, kindness, generosity, respect and most importantly, the love. I never made the connection that I was speaking to Mr. McDougal himself. The Man, The Person, The Owner, The CEO, The Embalmer, The Make Up Artist, The Financial Advisor, The Director of Services, The Limousine Driver, The Spokesperson, The Facilitator and the one who prepares the deceased for family funeral services., Trust me, Mr. McDougal wears many hats and can certainly do it all. I just never knewβ¦McDougal Funeral Home was ultimately and unequivocally, the right decision my family and I decided to utilize, for all arrangement's regarding a proper celebration of life for our loved one.Additionally, his professional staff can only be summed up this way. The best in the state. The staff first handily took care of all the programs, pictures, obituaries, videos, payments, counseling, advising and several others things per the request and on behalf of the family. A job Well deserving of Governorβs and Mayoral recognition. Truly the funeral home and staff of first choice. These words cannot speak volumes and are sincerely from my heart.A person who lives in Indiana, and only visited Salt Lake City twice in life, what a magnificent job, well done by McDougal Funeral Home. Their services are beyond reproach. McDougal Funeral Home is a great representative of the state of Utah, the city of Taylorsville. A Gold Star performance.I am and will forever be grateful for all of the advice, professionalism, services and generosity you and your staff have shown to our family and friends. McDougal Funeral Home will always be part of me and our family for life. π
Ashley Horrocks
Darin, our family thanks you so much! He took care of both my grandparents, is kind and compassionate. There lobby had an elegant tree and smelled like Christmas and pine cones. It was very nostalgic to our family because grandma loved the holidays. Thank you again, we very much appreciate you.
Johnson Johnson
The McDougal Funeral Home was superb in handling the arrangements for my dear cousin Dwight Dewayne McCray. I have no complaints at all. The staff was patient and kind and accommodating and very professional.The staff was superb. I am most familiar with Mr. Michael McDougal who was just EXCELLENT in representing himself and The McDougal Funeral Home. Being so far away from home; as I live in Jackson, Mississippi; I have absolutely NO COMPLAINTS of their services to our family.The staff member that I am most familiar with is Mr. Michael McDougal. While , being so far away from our home state and city; my family; The McCrays have had no complaints to my knowledge. Mr. Michael McDougal patiently accommodated my family superbly.and we were and are so very pleased with service of the funeral home totally.I have absolutely no complaint of The McDougal Funeral Home nor its staff; nor have I heard of any from my family members. We were so far from home (Jackson, Mississippi) and I have yet to hear of one complaint while there in Utah nor since my return to Mississippi. There has not been any complaints from our relatives and friends who were able to watch the services streamlined.So, if there were 10 stars to be given Iβd give all 10; even if there 100 stars to be given; The McDougal Funeral Home would get all 100 of them. Thank you very much for expert services and professionalism.Elder J.C. Johnson, Jr.Jackson, Mississippi

Loving and tender care given to our family during a difficult time. Darren Parker and staff went the extra mile to make sure all our needs were met. Our family would completely recommend McDougal for a professional and personal experience done the right way.
Lori Call
McDougal Funeral Homes has handled both my parent's funerals. One during Covid and one recently. My parents had a pre-paid funeral plan with them and it made our preparations so simple. They treated us with respect and concern and we are completely happy with the care we received. We held both funerals at their facility as well and it was lovely.
Margie Duncan
Happy to say that McDougall funeral has worked closely with family to sort out some of the issues I had in regards to a service for my sweet beautiful niece Stephanie Lucas. Itβs nice to see a company who is reactive to the family and has worked to rectify any issues I had. For her son and her husband my deepest sympathies.
Megan Thomson
Words cannot express how very thankful our family is for the experience Austin provided during such a difficult time. Austin made time to meet with my sisters and I at the last minute to plan the details of our ailing fatherβs funeral. This allowed time to create the perfect send off for our dad and also enjoy our time as a family. Forever gratefulβThe Thomas Family π
Jon Nelson
Mcdougal Funeral Home treats you like it is a member of their family has died. Very kind, tons of patience and information. They will never rush you into making an decision.
Michele Fuller
We had a wonderful experience with McDougal Funeral Home. They were so caring, professional and supportive, they helped make one of the most difficult times in our lives a little easier. We are so grateful for their guidance, direction and loving care. With their help we were able to honor our sweet Mom in a way she truly deserved. I would highly recommend McDougal.
Marta Lords
McDougal Funeral Home was the BEST. So caring, and they helped me through everything. And the after care service of helping with details after the funeral is over is just above and beyond. I would have been so lost, and I am able to grieve with absolute peace knowing things are taken care of. Excellent service. Highly recommend if you are in need of services.
Kathie Taylor
McDougalβs has served our family many times over the years. They are knowledgeable, caring, helpful and wonderful to work with. You canβt go wrong in choosing them to help in your time of sorrow.
Tammie Blankenship
Everyone was so helpful and caring. It made making the final arrangements for mom a joyful sad instead of a miserable sad. They have even followed up with me to make sure things are good in life and gave me great resources to use. Thank you
Jan Purdy
McDougals did everything to perfection. When it's my time they will take care of my funeral. They have compassion and complete respect for the person who has passed on and for their family.
C. Edwards
My husband died in Michigan and he would be buried in Utah.Mcdougal funeral home had him out of the hospital and into a local funeral home and then ship to utah in an amazingly short time. I really appreciated all the effort they went to.
Sherry Berry
If I could put more stars on this review, I would. McDougal's has been nothing but wonderful to work with. The care and concern they showed our family was so genuine and heartfelt. It, being a difficult time, was eased somewhat as Darren went over everything very carefully. He made suggestions that made sense to us. He went above and beyond anything I was expecting. My family has dealt with the McDougal family since the 1950's when I had a brother buried. Their attention to detail for the funeral was wonderful. But what amazes me, is that I have received several calls, just asking how I am doing emotionally. That and the aftercare. This I was not expecting. Absolutely everyone's concern for my family was way beyond compare. I have spoken with numerous people from McDougal's. Each one is concerned about my welfare as a grieving spouse. I just can't say enough about this place. Oh, and at the aftercare meeting, they gave me and my daughters memorial photo's of my wife with a poem on it. They also gave us some bookmarks with the same thing. This place is absolutely wonderful to work with!!!
Steven Casos
McDougal Funeral home helped my father plan his funeral years in advance, so there were no surprises when he passed away. They brought us in for a consultation, found his files and payments, and helped us create a funeral plan that was perfect for our family. We felt like they cared about us as people, not simply clients. Michael had our best interests in mind, helped us choose cost conscious yet beautiful selections (casket, flowers, services, etc.) and personally came to attend us at the funeral, even though it was a Saturday. He didn't outsource us, but stayed with us from start to finish. He was perfect! Let McDougal take care of your family the way they did mine- with care & compassion.
Madison Leigh
My Zee Zee Paw was cremated here. She was picked up today by my family. I couldn't be there because I live too far. I wanted to thank McDougal's for everything they did for my best friend Zee. They treat pets with the utmost care and compassion. I'm so grateful for their service to my family. Thank you π

JACKIE JOHNSON
Our family recently lossed our beloved sister Lynne.

Steve Beckstead
mcdougals has always been a place of peace for our family during very difficult times. The respect the staff shows during the services make you relax and concentrate on our loved ones. Thank you Mcdougles
Alecea Petersen
My son recently passed away unexpectedly and since McDougal handled my grandmother and grandfather's services, and my Aunt's and uncles had done their planning through them we thought they'd take good care of us.From the very beginning we felt like dollar signs. My Aunt's happened to accompany us in meeting with McDougal and found that she was being charged double what I was for the use of the celebration of life services.McDougal also advised us that we'd need my ex husband's consent to cremate my son despite the fact that he's been absent from my children's lives for many years. This created absolute chaos and heartache for my whole family as my ex husband is violent and has made several threats on my life.When we looked up Utah code concerning this information with legal help we found that the information given was incorrect and caused undue stress for no reason. When we made the decision to go with a different funeral home we were told they were legally obligated to let my ex husband know where we were going.I understand that every situation is different, however considering that I have a protective order in place I feel this put my safety at risk during a time when I should have only had to worry about mourning the loss of my son.The other funeral home was not only able to arrange cremation for my son WITHOUT my exes permission due to all of the court documents I had, but the services were in a beautiful location that felt next to heaven, and hand picked by my son.On top of everything else the costs associated through the other funeral home were significantly less than what McDougal was charging. I've never felt less like a person and more like dollar signs in my life.I highly recommend you do some research and compare costs.
Christopher Vick
Our experience working with McDougal was impeccable. They were kind, understanding, very empathetic in our needs, and incredibly helpful in guiding the βwhat comes nextβ conversations. They were patient and professional with working through our motherβs wishes. We will be working with them again to plan for our eventual passing and prevent some extra pain and difficulty on our children. Thank you, Michael, for all you did to help us in our time of need!

The passing of a loved one is never easy but it was absolutely wonderful to work with the McDougal staff through the process. They were genuine and helpful; making it easier to get all of the administrative stuff done so that we could focus on grieving and healing.
Matt Anderson
McDougal was absolutely wonderful to work with. Unfortunately our son passed away tragically. They were so responsive to all of our needs and we felt they truly cared about us. Austin Muir was our funeral director and we could not have asked for more accommodating service. They helped coordinate and make our funeral special at an especially trying time. We are very grateful to all that McDougal did for our family.
Kim Page
Our experience with McDougal Funeral Home couldnβt have been better. From the time we met Dave Bartholomew at the Home and Garden show, purchased a plan from him to the meal after the service that Faith arranged, it couldnβt have gone better. Everyone involved from Dave, Sundee, Terry, Faith , the limo driver and anyone else who I forgot to name, Thank You for all of your compassion and help. I did leave our funeral director off the list because I wanted to give my personal and special thank you to Michael McDougal. He did his job flawless (in my opinion), so kind and helpful. He was willing to do anything I asked as quickly as he could. He was easy to talk with, provided excellent advice with regards to anything involving the funeral. Just one of those people that I was glad was there to assist. Again thank you McDougal, you left us with a good feeling for it being such an extremely sad situation.
Karen Harward

Losing my mom is the most horrific experience but Michael and McDougal Funeral Home made the process as seamless as possible, lightening my load, and accommodating every little last minute changes. Michael and the funeral home are so compassionate, kind, and understanding. We had a lot of requests; they made it happen. Every detail from start to finish, even walking my motherβs urn out to my car for me. That means the world to me. Hope I donβt have to refer a funeral home to anyone soon but McDougal is exceptional.

It is unfortunate when a family must deal with a funeral home. Someone close has been lost and not only are the feelings from that loss lingering, but there is also the duty to ensure the family member is treated respectfully. Our mom had a pre-need plan with McDougalβs for decades after they handled our dad shortly before. Upon her passing, I called McDougalβs as I had been instructed. From that point, they did yeomanβs work in contacting and working with the out-of-state funeral home that would prepare Mom for transport. Over the days it took to transport her body to Utah, our funeral director, Mr. Michael McDougal, kept in contact with us keeping us aware of all that was taking place in the process and working with our local funeral home. I cannot stress enough the professional conduct and personal attention Michael gave to us during this time. The local funeral home relayed that Michael was very helpful to them and made himself available when needed. When we met Michael, he was not expecting us but still stopped what he was doing to greet us and give an update on what had been done since Momβs arrival. He showed us around the funeral home and let us know all that was available to provide a nice memorial service for our loved one.A comment on the funeral home itself. The entire place is spotless, and the chapel area is gorgeous, equipped with everything necessary for conducting a funeral service. The viewing areas and sitting rooms are just as splendorous as the chapel. Each of the people working there was as professional as Michael and very pleasant. One might think that they must be because that is their business, but you can tell that, yes, it is a business, but also that they truly care about each family that walks through their doors in a time of need. Everything, and I mean everything, was managed well with Michael taking the time to listen to our thoughts and providing needed advice. The weather took a turn for the worse at the time we were to hold the service, and Michael accommodated the necessary changes to move the services into the chapel instead of the graveside service we had planned. The preparation of Momβs body was perfect. She appeared so much like she did before her passing, and her hair was done just like she would have wanted it. She chose to be buried in her Temple clothing and that was handled with dignity as would be expected.Looking back on that time, I realize all the little things that Michael and the people at McDougal Funeral Home did to make the moment special. Those things that we had not thought of nor asked about. In the end, the memorial service for Mom turned out well and the family was able to say their goodbyes and talk about their memories of her in a perfect setting. Our thanks to the staff, and particularly Michael McDougal, for what they did before our arrival and the aftercare we have received long since departing Salt Lake. An unforgettable experience in many ways.

Everyone I spoke with at McDougal was so kind and supportive. They made my experience as easy as possible and treated my family with such care. Very organized and efficient, they took the time to answer all of my many questions. Thank you for all of your help and care!
Koleen Bawden
The best funeral home and beautiful peaceful environment for the loss of your special loved ones. Our family is blessed to have went to them for as long as I can remember, because of how kind everyone is there. My whole family has came to them for my mother, sister and both brothers passings, as well as my grandpa's and grandma and much more!
Holly Smith
McDougal Funeral Homes were wonderful. The process was very easy with their thoughtful staff.
Rebecca Allred
We felt so cared for by all members of your staff! Your concern for our tender feelings was so evident in the way you treated us and handled every situation, from picking up the body of our loved one, to the interment. Thank you especially to Michael and Sundee, who had so much patience with us in our planning- your compassion was heaven sent! Even our limo driver was so kind and genuine. Everyone at McDougal made this process seamless, and we are so grateful! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Recently we worked with Michael McDougal, who works at McDougal Mortuary. He is an exceptional funeral director who recently helped my family with my mom's burial. I cannot thank him enough for his unwavering dedication and support during this difficult time.Michael went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed and wanted for my mom's burial. He took the time to explain each step of the process and guided us through every decision we had to make, ensuring we were comfortable with each choice. He was patient, kind, and compassionate, which made all the difference during such a challenging time.One thing that stood out was Michael's ability to listen and understand our unique situation. He truly cared about my family's needs and preferences, and he worked tirelessly to ensure we got exactly what we wanted. He made sure that everything was taken care of, from the paperwork to the small details that mattered to us.What truly set Michael apart was his willingness to go the extra mile for our family. He listened carefully to our needs and desires, and he worked tirelessly to ensure that we got exactly what we wanted and needed. His kindness and understanding made all the difference during a very difficult time, and we are forever grateful for his assistance.I would highly recommend Michael McDougal and McDougal Mortuary to anyone who is seeking a compassionate, professional, and caring team to help with their loved one's final arrangements. Michael's exceptional service and commitment to excellence truly exceeded our expectations and made a difficult time a little easier to bear.

This is our second funeral with McDougal. In both instances, we were treated with respect and solemnly befitting the occasion . The services were done in excellent taste, and the live-streaming of the service in the funeral home made it possible for those unable to attend in person which was lovely.Thanks in particular to Michael McDougal, whom we found to be very professional and knowledgeable.Mike, thank you so much for helping us along at this difficult time.
Ann Nelson
So caring, accommodating and eager to help in a hard time for the families McDougals was so informative and listen to our ideas. They took great care of my husband and were so respectful. I was so impressed with them.What a wonderful home they have and what wonderful people they are, it takes a rare type of person to be able to work with the deceased. They really set my mind at ease and I knew my husband would be well taken care of. It was so impressive the way they answered questions I hadn't thought of. I would recommend them to everyone . Thank you McDougal's for a wonderful experience.

The kindness and professionalism my family were shown was second to none. We worked with Austin for the main part, but every member of their staff treated my family with compassion and understanding during a very difficult time. I expressed my appreciation to Austin after my dad's funeral, but wanted the entire staff to know that they are appreciated for how they help families through very difficult times. I would highly recommend McDougal's to anyone dealing with a loss of someone you love.
Jan Purdy
McDougals did everything to perfection. When it's my time they will take care of my funeral. They have compassion and complete respect for the person who has passed on and for their family.
C. Edwards
My husband died in Michigan and he would be buried in Utah.Mcdougal funeral home had him out of the hospital and into a local funeral home and then ship to utah in an amazingly short time. I really appreciated all the effort they went to.
Sherry Berry
If I could put more stars on this review, I would. McDougal's has been nothing but wonderful to work with. The care and concern they showed our family was so genuine and heartfelt. It, being a difficult time, was eased somewhat as Darren went over everything very carefully. He made suggestions that made sense to us. He went above and beyond anything I was expecting. My family has dealt with the McDougal family since the 1950's when I had a brother buried. Their attention to detail for the funeral was wonderful. But what amazes me, is that I have received several calls, just asking how I am doing emotionally. That and the aftercare. This I was not expecting. Absolutely everyone's concern for my family was way beyond compare. I have spoken with numerous people from McDougal's. Each one is concerned about my welfare as a grieving spouse. I just can't say enough about this place. Oh, and at the aftercare meeting, they gave me and my daughters memorial photo's of my wife with a poem on it. They also gave us some bookmarks with the same thing. This place is absolutely wonderful to work with!!!
Steven Casos
McDougal Funeral home helped my father plan his funeral years in advance, so there were no surprises when he passed away. They brought us in for a consultation, found his files and payments, and helped us create a funeral plan that was perfect for our family. We felt like they cared about us as people, not simply clients. Michael had our best interests in mind, helped us choose cost conscious yet beautiful selections (casket, flowers, services, etc.) and personally came to attend us at the funeral, even though it was a Saturday. He didn't outsource us, but stayed with us from start to finish. He was perfect! Let McDougal take care of your family the way they did mine- with care & compassion.
Madison Leigh
My Zee Zee Paw was cremated here. She was picked up today by my family. I couldn't be there because I live too far. I wanted to thank McDougal's for everything they did for my best friend Zee. They treat pets with the utmost care and compassion. I'm so grateful for their service to my family. Thank you π
Tina Evans
With the death of my mother in March McDougal Funeral Home has been so attentive to my grieving process being my mother's care taker for decades the loss is so deep, just in everyday activities and her spirit is always with me. All of the employees at McDougal have been so caring, loving and it is so comforting in the time of need after all of the services are over, they are there if you need them in the After Care, listen and help ease your grief. Thank you to you all! ~ I miss my mother everyday but know my parents, John & Lois instilled strong core values and morals that lead the way to life as I move forward and find my way to loving and being loved again! Many blessings to you all at McDougal! My Mother, My Angel!
JACKIE JOHNSON
Our family recently lossed our beloved sister Lynne. The departure of a loved one is a very traumatic emotional experience and difficult to process not to mention tending to arrangements with their passing. McDougal Funeral Home with Michael and the staff provided and devoted much appreciated professional, kind and compassionate guideness in this process to make this process as less unbearable, worry free to our family.I truly believe they are genuine in their attention to the needs of the ones who have lossed a love one. They insured our comfort with reaching out to us to express further condolences and inquire how we were coping with our loss.Thank you to Michael and the staff of McDougal Funeral Home for your caring compassion.
Steve Beckstead
mcdougals has always been a place of peace for our family during very difficult times. The respect the staff shows during the services make you relax and concentrate on our loved ones. Thank you Mcdougles
Alecea Petersen
My son recently passed away unexpectedly and since McDougal handled my grandmother and grandfather's services, and my Aunt's and uncles had done their planning through them we thought they'd take good care of us.From the very beginning we felt like dollar signs. My Aunt's happened to accompany us in meeting with McDougal and found that she was being charged double what I was for the use of the celebration of life services.McDougal also advised us that we'd need my ex husband's consent to cremate my son despite the fact that he's been absent from my children's lives for many years. This created absolute chaos and heartache for my whole family as my ex husband is violent and has made several threats on my life.When we looked up Utah code concerning this information with legal help we found that the information given was incorrect and caused undue stress for no reason. When we made the decision to go with a different funeral home we were told they were legally obligated to let my ex husband know where we were going.I understand that every situation is different, however considering that I have a protective order in place I feel this put my safety at risk during a time when I should have only had to worry about mourning the loss of my son.The other funeral home was not only able to arrange cremation for my son WITHOUT my exes permission due to all of the court documents I had, but the services were in a beautiful location that felt next to heaven, and hand picked by my son.On top of everything else the costs associated through the other funeral home were significantly less than what McDougal was charging. I've never felt less like a person and more like dollar signs in my life.I highly recommend you do some research and compare costs.
Christopher Vick
Our experience working with McDougal was impeccable. They were kind, understanding, very empathetic in our needs, and incredibly helpful in guiding the βwhat comes nextβ conversations. They were patient and professional with working through our motherβs wishes. We will be working with them again to plan for our eventual passing and prevent some extra pain and difficulty on our children. Thank you, Michael, for all you did to help us in our time of need!
Becky Wiley
I had the best experience with McDougal Funeral Homes, they were so kind and made this difficult time so easy. They really went above and beyond, I would definitely recommend them to friends and family!
Stephen Brown
Luckily our parents worked with McDougal Funeral Homes early, prearranging their services making it very easy on us when they past.Most recently in September our mother past. Even during these trying times we were able to have a great service for the family, thanks to the caring people at McDougal and especially to Micheal for his support.We are looking forward to continue to work with McDougal Funeral Homes as we settle our parents estate as our parents also worked with McDougal Funeral Homes to set up the their trust. Again all making the situation much easier on the family.Thank you to all at McDougal Funeral Homes
lehai Austin
Our experience with the McDougal Funeral Home was absolutely amazing. Michael McDougal was very caring and compassionate. He made sure everything was organized and exactly the way we wanted. He was VERY responsive and always made time to speak with us whether on the phone or in person. My sisterβs memorial service was perfect and our family cannot thank Michael or his staff enough for all that they did for us. Thank you so much to everyone at the McDougal Funeral Home.
Becky Ewell
Our experience with the McDougal Funeral Home was exceptional. They went above and beyond while taking care of our sweet mom. Michael McDougal and staff were very caring and compassionate. He made sure everything was organized and exactly the way we wanted. Thank you so much to everyone at the McDougal Funeral Home.
Jody Bates
I was extremely disappointed in the way I was treated recently by the staff at McDougal Funeral Home. They had taken a large spray of flowers to the wrong service which left our service without it and to make it worse they blamed it on the florist. I personally worked with the florist that went above and beyond to help me find them (during the service) while the entire time the funeral worker did close to nothing but continue to blame the florist. Come to find out it was the fault of the funeral home employees. Never got the flowers! The important part is the way I was treated. Staff made me feel as if our grief, need and service was not as important as the other service. Days later the funeral home worked with the florist to get my money back but I never got a call, card or anything from McDougal's with a simple apology for the way the staff treated me and the mistake that was clearly theirs. Very Disappointed.
Nora Ratto
For a family like ours with no previous experience, it did not make a difference. Why? Because Michael McDougal literally took us by the hand and walked us thru the whole process. What a blessing! To say that we recommend McDougal funeral home is an understatement. Honest and very helpful staff. Eternally grateful!
Chuck Jackson
Our family was very grateful for the compassion and professionalism that Austin and staff provided us during this most difficult time.We recommend McDougal to all our friends in need of their service.The Jacksons.
Joshua Cox
I cannot say enough how wonderful McDougal Funeral Homes is. Their level of care and compassion is truly above and beyond. They have taken such wonderful care of my father, father in-law and now my little brother in-law. They really are the best, but can only do 5 stars.
December Best
McDougal Funeral Home was amazing. The care they took in dealing with us was wonderful. They took care of everything and met with us first hand to decide details. There was no push on anything, they did exactly what was asked of them and were very considerate of our feelings throughout the entire process. I am so glad the entire staff was there for us in our time of need. Thank you for caring for our Mom with such love.
Melissa L
My dad passed away a few years back and we worked with Michael McDougal at the McDougal funeral home. We felt well-cared for and comfortable asking any and all questions, regardless of how odd. Michael was always kind and treated my family and dad with great dignity.Recently my mother-in-law passed away and I didn't know that not all funeral homes would not give the same treatment. With a different mortuary we felt it was almost predatory in nature. My mother-in-law had set up her wishes in advance, but I didn't know it was something we needed to talk about with her. Now I know and have talked with both my mom and my father-in-law and have my own wishes in place.We will for sure work with Michael McDougal again and are very grateful for his compassion to my family during our time of grief. His communication and making us feel comfortable made all of the difference.Thank you.
Veronica Johnson
They are a high recommended for your fir arrangements. They have been more than supportive & compassionate during this hard time. They even offer help with grieving if you need to talk or just need a shoulder thank you Michael and melissa!
Angela Bawden
Michael was so empathetic and kind to our family during this difficult situation. He honored our requests and he gave us great comfort during the difficult process. We are grateful we chose Mcdougal funeral home to take thoughtful care of my sister after her passing. I recommend using Mcdougal services to everyone!
Rebecca H
The passing of a loved one is never easy but it was absolutely wonderful to work with the McDougal staff through the process. They were genuine and helpful; making it easier to get all of the administrative stuff done so that we could focus on grieving and healing.
Matt Anderson
McDougal was absolutely wonderful to work with. Unfortunately our son passed away tragically. They were so responsive to all of our needs and we felt they truly cared about us. Austin Muir was our funeral director and we could not have asked for more accommodating service. They helped coordinate and make our funeral special at an especially trying time. We are very grateful to all that McDougal did for our family.
Kim Page
Our experience with McDougal Funeral Home couldnβt have been better. From the time we met Dave Bartholomew at the Home and Garden show, purchased a plan from him to the meal after the service that Faith arranged, it couldnβt have gone better. Everyone involved from Dave, Sundee, Terry, Faith , the limo driver and anyone else who I forgot to name, Thank You for all of your compassion and help. I did leave our funeral director off the list because I wanted to give my personal and special thank you to Michael McDougal. He did his job flawless (in my opinion), so kind and helpful. He was willing to do anything I asked as quickly as he could. He was easy to talk with, provided excellent advice with regards to anything involving the funeral. Just one of those people that I was glad was there to assist. Again thank you McDougal, you left us with a good feeling for it being such an extremely sad situation.
Karen Harward
McDougal Funeral Homes made sure that every detail of my motherβs passing and funeral was handled with excellence and compassion. They have my highest recommendation.
Toni Rasmussen
They did an excellent job! Everything was taken care of for my mother's funeral. I felt very peaceful and no pressure. They did an excellent job on her hair and makeup. She looked beautiful and so at peace. I would definitely use them.
Gary Beckstead
They were wonderful, they made the entire process easy and every step of my motherβs funeral was just perfect. I would recommend McDougal funeral home to everyone.
Kami Villa
McDougal funeral home were professional, and helpful to work with. They walked me through every step, were easy to get a hold of and quickly made changes we needed. They especially took great care of my mom while she was in their care. We really appreciate the detail and care in everything they did at such a difficult time in our lives.
Stev Curtiss
Not just professional but caring, sympathetic, and supportive at such a time when it is needed. Turning what could have been unpleasant into a shining experience that will be remembered with thankfulness.
Nichol North
Michael was absolutely fantastic in every aspect with my Dad's funeral! He was so caring and compassionate towards my entire family throughout the process. He was very observant of items that we wanted but were timid to ask for and made it happen. He took great care of my Dad and the respect and pride of their work really shined through. I don't really know how I would have gotten through the whole process without Michael guiding us and being there with us. Do not hesitate to use McDougal's, I would recommend them to anyone!
Linda Buckner
We had a wonderful experience with McDougal funeral home taking excellent care our family member and all our funeral needs! We greatly appreciate all you did for us!! Thank You!!
tracy oconnor
I have had to use McDougall Funeral Home services twice in the past six months. I canβt express how grateful I am for the caring and genuinely compassionate support I received on both occasions. Eric and everyone else was understanding and very helpful with special requests. The After Care program has been very helpful and much appreciated.
Allyson Vietti
Unfortunately I have had to use McDougal Funeral home too many times in the last few years, the latest being to bury my sweet husband. The whole experience was handled so well. I have been treated with love, kindness and sympathy. After all was said and done they have reached out to me to make sure i am well. I also need to say that my husband's and my mother-in-law's bodies were prepared so well! My mom looked like an angel, and my husband looked so peaceful. I highly recommend McDougal's Funeral Home to anyone needing to plan funeral services.
Mark Marshall
Michael, Pam, Nichole and everyone we worked with at McDougal Funeral Homes were very kind, considerate, supportive and flexible, helping us prepare for and set up my dad's funeral. They answered questions and shared sympathy from beginning to end. The follow up meeting, helped us make sure we knew who to contact and steps we needed to follow to close down accounts. They delivered death certificates and recordings of the funeral to our home. We appreciated all they did during a difficult time.
Kerri Oakeson
We were so impressed with the kind, and professional service McDougal Funeral Homes in Taylorsville, UT provided for our family when our sweet Mom passed away. Jeff Butcher was exceptional! From start to finish he was there to help us, and was so considerate of our situation. He focused on meeting our needs, and made sure every detail was handled with care and efficiency. He was a tremendous source of information and we never felt pressured - just complete support! Thank you Jeff, Nicole, Pam and the other staff members who made us feel welcome and helped us take care of everything. The planning viewing, funeral, and burial went so smoothly, which made it a peaceful experience. McDougal also offered, as part of their services, post funeral arrangements that helped walk our family through the necessary arrangements like estate planning, social security, insurance, etc which we found so helpful!We would definitely recommend McDougal Funeral Homes. They are great at what they do, and taking care of your needs is their greatest concern.
Debbie Ventura
Everyone at McDougalβs is so caring, especially Austin. They gave us the time to decide and make changes as needed. Everything went as scheduled. Mom looked so natural. They took care of everything, so we didnβt have that worry. They were even accommodating with the payment for services.
Eric Haag
Michael McDougal and the staff at the McDougal Funeral Home provided us with every assistance and courtesy during our family's recent services for our Mother. They were very helpful as we planned the service and all during our sad but sweet experience. We have used their services several times over the years and they are consistent in their concern and desire to make the experience as easy as possible. We would recommend them to anyone. Thank you Michael for everything!
Jalene Bassett
Our family has worked with McDougal Funeral Homes on 2 occasions now. We were so happy with them after they took care of our momβs funeral, that my dad did his planning through them for his funeral. Ron helped us with my momβs arrangements and then personally walked my dad through all the choices for everything in preparation for his funeral planning. This simplified the process and made it so much easier when my dad actually passed away. It was so comforting to see Jeffβs familiar face when he came to the house on a Sunday night to take care of things for our dad. The care and concern they showed our family both times was very genuine and really appreciated. We felt like those who helped us were part of our family. The assistance they give you before and after the funeral in planning and follow up is thorough and beneficial to all involved. My siblings and I all want to thank Ron, Jeff, Michael and all the staff who have gone through all of this with us for our parents funerals. This group is phenomenal at what they do.
Lisa Wolfe
The compassion and professionalism extended to me, as our family liaison, during our tragic loss was above expectation The entire staff, especially Micheal, went far beyond to ensure every detail was handled without complication or additional stress on our family.
Leena Ngo
Losing my mom is the most horrific experience but Michael and McDougal Funeral Home made the process as seamless as possible, lightening my load, and accommodating every little last minute changes. Michael and the funeral home are so compassionate, kind, and understanding. We had a lot of requests; they made it happen. Every detail from start to finish, even walking my motherβs urn out to my car for me. That means the world to me. Hope I donβt have to refer a funeral home to anyone soon but McDougal is exceptional.

It is unfortunate when a family must deal with a funeral home. Someone close has been lost and not only are the feelings from that loss lingering, but there is also the duty to ensure the family member is treated respectfully. Our mom had a pre-need plan with McDougalβs for decades after they handled our dad shortly before. Upon her passing, I called McDougalβs as I had been instructed. From that point, they did yeomanβs work in contacting and working with the out-of-state funeral home that would prepare Mom for transport. Over the days it took to transport her body to Utah, our funeral director, Mr. Michael McDougal, kept in contact with us keeping us aware of all that was taking place in the process and working with our local funeral home. I cannot stress enough the professional conduct and personal attention Michael gave to us during this time. The local funeral home relayed that Michael was very helpful to them and made himself available when needed. When we met Michael, he was not expecting us but still stopped what he was doing to greet us and give an update on what had been done since Momβs arrival. He showed us around the funeral home and let us know all that was available to provide a nice memorial service for our loved one.A comment on the funeral home itself. The entire place is spotless, and the chapel area is gorgeous, equipped with everything necessary for conducting a funeral service. The viewing areas and sitting rooms are just as splendorous as the chapel. Each of the people working there was as professional as Michael and very pleasant. One might think that they must be because that is their business, but you can tell that, yes, it is a business, but also that they truly care about each family that walks through their doors in a time of need. Everything, and I mean everything, was managed well with Michael taking the time to listen to our thoughts and providing needed advice. The weather took a turn for the worse at the time we were to hold the service, and Michael accommodated the necessary changes to move the services into the chapel instead of the graveside service we had planned. The preparation of Momβs body was perfect. She appeared so much like she did before her passing, and her hair was done just like she would have wanted it. She chose to be buried in her Temple clothing and that was handled with dignity as would be expected.Looking back on that time, I realize all the little things that Michael and the people at McDougal Funeral Home did to make the moment special. Those things that we had not thought of nor asked about. In the end, the memorial service for Mom turned out well and the family was able to say their goodbyes and talk about their memories of her in a perfect setting. Our thanks to the staff, and particularly Michael McDougal, for what they did before our arrival and the aftercare we have received long since departing Salt Lake. An unforgettable experience in many ways.

Nathan Ray
When my sweet, young wife sadly passed away last month, it was a no-brainer to use McDougal Funeral Home for her services. I've been attending services there my entire life, including my angel mother five years ago. They did not disappoint! During what was such a difficult time for us, they were so compassionate, professional and took every care to ensure the services were beautiful. They took time to explain every detail of the services, and brought me back in after the funeral to help me navigate the intricacies of losing my wife (which was invaluable).Most of all, they treated my sweetheart's body with such reverence and dignity, which is something I'll always be grateful for. Jeff, the funeral home director, became a dear friend and I will always treasure my relationship with both him and McDougal. To me, it will always be a sacred, special place. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to all my friends at McDougal!
Lynn Crane
My Dad had purchased a funeral plan from McDougal Funeral Homes over 20 years ago. When he passed we only had to make one call to McDougal and they took care of everything. It was such a relief to the family to be able to celebrate his life without the worry of all the small details that required attention. Amazing after 20 years how much they cared about him and the family and how thoughtful they were afterwards. I received several follow-up calls after the burial from them just checking to see how the family was doing. They also gave us great guidance on how to go about settling his estate. Really appreciate the thoughtful staff that helped us so graciously through this process.
michael gibbs
I had worked with Michael McDougal for several years prior to his getting into the "family business" at the McDougal Funeral Home. I knew and trusted Michael, and when my Mother passed away he was the first and only person I called to facilitate our needs for the family and for my Mother. He and the Mortuary went above and beyond in working with the needs and plans for the funeral, as they do for any who come thru their doors. I know this because I am a professional Bagpiper and I have worked thru McDougal Funeral Homes on that side many times as well, and I have seen that professionalism with many families and funeral services. Their compassion and tact in times of grief is exemplary. They listened to our concerns with my Mother's services and gave advice and suggestions that fit with our budget and made the day of the funeral smooth and hassle free. I would recommend McDougal Funeral Homes, and Michael McDougal personally to any and all who are in need of professional and compassionate services for a deceased loved one. They truly encompass heartfelt service to others at a time that can be difficult and devastating.
Lydia Woodall
Michael and Dave at McDougal were very professional and respectful. They were there every step of the way. We are so very fortunate to have found them. We recommend McDougal Funeral Homes as someone you can trust your family members with.

Our family has used McDougal many times and we have always been pleased with the service. I recently had to bury my newborn son. The worst most painful experience I have dealt with. This funeral home is then only one of the many I called that did not quote me a large fee. All I had to pay for was a casket. They dressed, prepared, transported and cared for my son beautifully and at no cost.The generosity and compassion that has been given to our family at this time has been outstanding. I have even had a few follow up visits and calls form them just checking to see how im doing.I cant express well enough the gratitude I have for this family owned company and the gift they gave us. I highly recommend McDougal funeral homes Eric and Ron are awesome.update...These guys even made it a point to reach out on the anniversary of my sons birth and passing just to send a little love our way.This was really a great added touch. They don't just forget about you after your service is complete. They stay in touch like family.

We had such a wonderful experience with McDougal Funeral Homes. The whole process from pre-planning to the actual funeral services was professional, compassionate and exceeded expectations. Ron and Mike were so helpful with their specific roles in the process and then some. Each staff member we dealt with was thoughtful and caring. Our affairs were handled with a great deal of respect and support. We couldn't have asked for a better experience with a such a difficult life event. Much thanks from the Freeman Family.

McDougald Funeral Home was so patient kind helpful and so loving to our mother. If we had any questions, they were so happy to help us they wanted to make sure that this experience was easy for us to go through. They had so many people that were so helpful and our funeral director Michael I do not know his last name was right on top of everything making sure it was going to run smoothly. I know the family has really appreciated everything that McDougalβs Funeral Home has done for our family. Thank you.
Ginger Munk
I appreciated meeting with Michael McDougal after my mother's passing. He was compassionate, sensitive, and professional. He patiently answered all my questions and helped me make decisions about the funeral. I was impressed with Nichole's patience, professionalism, and kindness in preparing the funeral program and photos for the video. The funeral was held in McDougal's chapel because of Covid, and it couldn't have been nicer. Things were set up nicely at the cemetery and we didn't feel rushed at all. I highly recommend McDougal Funeral Homes.
Frost Bite
When my dad passed, everything just went by so fast and I am glad we chose McDougal at our time of grief. We had Nathan and his fellow partner come over to take my dad, and he was so kind. We went to the funeral home to see Michael and everything just felt like home. It gave us comfort knowing that my dad was sleeping well in there and every time we went to visit my dad, it felt so inviting. We went to a different mortuary that day and it literally just felt like a business. McDougal cares about our loved ones and us. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts β€οΈ
Wendy Cornia
McDougal helped with both my parents who passed only 15 months apart. They were so kind and understanding and helped the family understand the whole process and expenses. They followed up with us afterwards to see if there was anything they could help us with and we appreciated the offer.
Stephen Brown
Luckily our parents worked with McDougal Funeral Homes early, prearranging their services making it very easy on us when they past.Most recently in September our mother past. Even during these trying times we were able to have a great service for the family, thanks to the caring people at McDougal and especially to Micheal for his support.We are looking forward to continue to work with McDougal Funeral Homes as we settle our parents estate as our parents also worked with McDougal Funeral Homes to set up the their trust. Again all making the situation much easier on the family.Thank you to all at McDougal Funeral Homes
lehai Austin
Our experience with the McDougal Funeral Home was absolutely amazing. Michael McDougal was very caring and compassionate. He made sure everything was organized and exactly the way we wanted. He was VERY responsive and always made time to speak with us whether on the phone or in person. My sisterβs memorial service was perfect and our family cannot thank Michael or his staff enough for all that they did for us. Thank you so much to everyone at the McDougal Funeral Home.
Becky Ewell
Our experience with the McDougal Funeral Home was exceptional. They went above and beyond while taking care of our sweet mom. Michael McDougal and staff were very caring and compassionate. He made sure everything was organized and exactly the way we wanted. Thank you so much to everyone at the McDougal Funeral Home.
Jody Bates
I was extremely disappointed in the way I was treated recently by the staff at McDougal Funeral Home. They had taken a large spray of flowers to the wrong service which left our service without it and to make it worse they blamed it on the florist. I personally worked with the florist that went above and beyond to help me find them (during the service) while the entire time the funeral worker did close to nothing but continue to blame the florist. Come to find out it was the fault of the funeral home employees. Never got the flowers! The important part is the way I was treated. Staff made me feel as if our grief, need and service was not as important as the other service. Days later the funeral home worked with the florist to get my money back but I never got a call, card or anything from McDougal's with a simple apology for the way the staff treated me and the mistake that was clearly theirs. Very Disappointed.
Nora Ratto
For a family like ours with no previous experience, it did not make a difference. Why? Because Michael McDougal literally took us by the hand and walked us thru the whole process. What a blessing! To say that we recommend McDougal funeral home is an understatement. Honest and very helpful staff. Eternally grateful!
Chuck Jackson
Our family was very grateful for the compassion and professionalism that Austin and staff provided us during this most difficult time.We recommend McDougal to all our friends in need of their service.The Jacksons.
Joshua Cox
I cannot say enough how wonderful McDougal Funeral Homes is. Their level of care and compassion is truly above and beyond. They have taken such wonderful care of my father, father in-law and now my little brother in-law. They really are the best, but can only do 5 stars.
December Best
McDougal Funeral Home was amazing. The care they took in dealing with us was wonderful. They took care of everything and met with us first hand to decide details. There was no push on anything, they did exactly what was asked of them and were very considerate of our feelings throughout the entire process. I am so glad the entire staff was there for us in our time of need. Thank you for caring for our Mom with such love.
Melissa L
My dad passed away a few years back and we worked with Michael McDougal at the McDougal funeral home. We felt well-cared for and comfortable asking any and all questions, regardless of how odd. Michael was always kind and treated my family and dad with great dignity.Recently my mother-in-law passed away and I didn't know that not all funeral homes would not give the same treatment. With a different mortuary we felt it was almost predatory in nature. My mother-in-law had set up her wishes in advance, but I didn't know it was something we needed to talk about with her. Now I know and have talked with both my mom and my father-in-law and have my own wishes in place.We will for sure work with Michael McDougal again and are very grateful for his compassion to my family during our time of grief. His communication and making us feel comfortable made all of the difference.Thank you.
Nichol North
Michael was absolutely fantastic in every aspect with my Dad's funeral! He was so caring and compassionate towards my entire family throughout the process. He was very observant of items that we wanted but were timid to ask for and made it happen. He took great care of my Dad and the respect and pride of their work really shined through. I don't really know how I would have gotten through the whole process without Michael guiding us and being there with us. Do not hesitate to use McDougal's, I would recommend them to anyone!
Deanne Wiggins
McDougall funeral home was very compassionate and caring when my Mom passed away. It comforted me knowing that I was leaving my Mom in good hands. I felt this way through the whole process, from picking out services, casket, flowers, programs for the service, and during the service and graveside. We will return to purchase her headstone from them as well. I highly recommend them. Thank you so much Michael for taking such good care of us!!!
Christie Clayburn
My family has been using McDougal Mortuary for about 10 years. Everyone we have worked with has been so kind, helpful and supportive. The viewings and funerals have been handled with great respect for the family's wishes. We have received so much help in navigating through all the things that must be done. I have received personal phone calls and texts from the staff with condolences and offers of support and assistance. We have recommended their services to friends and co-workers. If you need personalized and dignified funeral services or planning, I would highly recommend McDougal Mortuary.
Nadine Pugh
McDougal's Funeral Home is the very best. I have used them for many years and they have helped me through the process many times. My most recent experience was for my mom. Michael McDougal, helped me. He was kind, patient and clearly knowledgeable. He was able to answer all my questions right off and even gave me needed information that I was not aware I needed. Thank you Michael and McDougal for your continued support.
Suzy West
Our family will be forever grateful for the exceptional service that we were given by McDougal. Darren and Nichole were there to comfort, guide, and help us through the entire process of making beautiful arrangements that would honor our dad. We experienced complete peace of mind knowing that they genuinely cared about us and listened to us, answering our questions and making helpful suggestions along the way. We always felt such a great level of respect and reverence in the way that they cared for our dad.
doug koontz
Michael and the team at McDougal have been very supportive and helpful with all my funeral needs, they have went above and beyond what I had expected. I would highly recommend this funeral home to anyone in need of service. Their follow-ups and administrative help were much appreciated during times of grief. I thank them for all their help.
Audrique Jacobs
We lost our dear sister suddently and Michael McDougal was just amazing. From the beginning of the planning to the entire process was peaceful because he was able to ensure all that we wanted was done. He took good care of our sister and one thing I admired he always called her by her name during the planning and never use the word the (body). It meant so much to us that she was well taking care by people who love their job with all their hearts. A BIG THANKS to McDougal Funeral Home. Keep taking care of family during this special time.
Brian Hogan
Our recent experience with Darren at McDougal Funeral Homes was outstanding. He helped us through a difficult situation after the loss of our mother. They were considerate, passionate and thoughtful with every detail and throughout the entire process. Thank you for making the process much easier and ensuring everything happened just as we planned it.
Sodavy Sok
McDougal Funeral Homes treated my family with kindness, sensitivity and empathy in our time of need. Planning a funeral is never easy, especially when the passing of a loved one is unexpected.The staff was flexible with our immediate need for a service and guided us every step of the way. The service went off without a hitch. That was so important as funerals are highly stressful and emotional, and a smooth service allows us to focus on our family without worrying about logistics.After the funeral, the staff followed up with a checklist to personally guide us through steps we needed to take post a person's passing. Many of us are not experienced with this process, and as this was the first passing in our immediate family, it was extremely helpful.Thank you for taking care of our family during this difficult time and providing a beautiful service.
David Moller
All of the staff have been extremely helpful and supportive after the loss of my father. I would highly recommend McDougal Funeral Homes to anyone searching for a helping hand with end of life planning. They have made this period of my life so much easier. Please do yourself and your loved ones a favor by planning ahead with their help, you won't regret it.
David Rich
At a time that is so painful to us the personnel at McDougal Funeral Home were the most helpful and accommodating I have ever worked with. I would highly recommend them to help you in your time of need as well as talking with them about future needs. I am very happy with them in every since. I was devastated when my wife passed recently but they were there with me through every step of the way.
Linda Buckner
We had a wonderful experience with McDougal funeral home taking excellent care our family member and all our funeral needs! We greatly appreciate all you did for us!! Thank You!!
tracy oconnor
I have had to use McDougall Funeral Home services twice in the past six months. I canβt express how grateful I am for the caring and genuinely compassionate support I received on both occasions. Eric and everyone else was understanding and very helpful with special requests. The After Care program has been very helpful and much appreciated.
Allyson Vietti
Unfortunately I have had to use McDougal Funeral home too many times in the last few years, the latest being to bury my sweet husband. The whole experience was handled so well. I have been treated with love, kindness and sympathy. After all was said and done they have reached out to me to make sure i am well. I also need to say that my husband's and my mother-in-law's bodies were prepared so well! My mom looked like an angel, and my husband looked so peaceful. I highly recommend McDougal's Funeral Home to anyone needing to plan funeral services.
Mark Marshall
Michael, Pam, Nichole and everyone we worked with at McDougal Funeral Homes were very kind, considerate, supportive and flexible, helping us prepare for and set up my dad's funeral. They answered questions and shared sympathy from beginning to end. The follow up meeting, helped us make sure we knew who to contact and steps we needed to follow to close down accounts. They delivered death certificates and recordings of the funeral to our home. We appreciated all they did during a difficult time.
Kerri Oakeson
We were so impressed with the kind, and professional service McDougal Funeral Homes in Taylorsville, UT provided for our family when our sweet Mom passed away. Jeff Butcher was exceptional! From start to finish he was there to help us, and was so considerate of our situation. He focused on meeting our needs, and made sure every detail was handled with care and efficiency. He was a tremendous source of information and we never felt pressured - just complete support! Thank you Jeff, Nicole, Pam and the other staff members who made us feel welcome and helped us take care of everything. The planning viewing, funeral, and burial went so smoothly, which made it a peaceful experience. McDougal also offered, as part of their services, post funeral arrangements that helped walk our family through the necessary arrangements like estate planning, social security, insurance, etc which we found so helpful!We would definitely recommend McDougal Funeral Homes. They are great at what they do, and taking care of your needs is their greatest concern.
Debbie Ventura
Everyone at McDougalβs is so caring, especially Austin. They gave us the time to decide and make changes as needed. Everything went as scheduled. Mom looked so natural. They took care of everything, so we didnβt have that worry. They were even accommodating with the payment for services.
Eric Haag
Michael McDougal and the staff at the McDougal Funeral Home provided us with every assistance and courtesy during our family's recent services for our Mother. They were very helpful as we planned the service and all during our sad but sweet experience. We have used their services several times over the years and they are consistent in their concern and desire to make the experience as easy as possible. We would recommend them to anyone. Thank you Michael for everything!
Jalene Bassett
Our family has worked with McDougal Funeral Homes on 2 occasions now. We were so happy with them after they took care of our momβs funeral, that my dad did his planning through them for his funeral. Ron helped us with my momβs arrangements and then personally walked my dad through all the choices for everything in preparation for his funeral planning. This simplified the process and made it so much easier when my dad actually passed away. It was so comforting to see Jeffβs familiar face when he came to the house on a Sunday night to take care of things for our dad. The care and concern they showed our family both times was very genuine and really appreciated. We felt like those who helped us were part of our family. The assistance they give you before and after the funeral in planning and follow up is thorough and beneficial to all involved. My siblings and I all want to thank Ron, Jeff, Michael and all the staff who have gone through all of this with us for our parents funerals. This group is phenomenal at what they do.
Lisa Wolfe
The compassion and professionalism extended to me, as our family liaison, during our tragic loss was above expectation The entire staff, especially Micheal, went far beyond to ensure every detail was handled without complication or additional stress on our family.
Nathan Ray
When my sweet, young wife sadly passed away last month, it was a no-brainer to use McDougal Funeral Home for her services. I've been attending services there my entire life, including my angel mother five years ago. They did not disappoint! During what was such a difficult time for us, they were so compassionate, professional and took every care to ensure the services were beautiful. They took time to explain every detail of the services, and brought me back in after the funeral to help me navigate the intricacies of losing my wife (which was invaluable).Most of all, they treated my sweetheart's body with such reverence and dignity, which is something I'll always be grateful for. Jeff, the funeral home director, became a dear friend and I will always treasure my relationship with both him and McDougal. To me, it will always be a sacred, special place. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to all my friends at McDougal!
Glenna Griffiths
I would highly recommend McDougal Funeral Home and have done so to many friends and acquaintances. They have taken care of many of our family members over the years and most recently my husband. They were so kind, caring, compassionate, and professional from the time they picked up his body until the end of the graveside service. When we met with them to plan the viewing and funeral service, they were very concerned about our feelings and carrying out our wishes. They eased our burden by contacting Social Security and making arrangements with the cemetery. They special ordered the casket that we wanted, and they did a fantastic job at preparing my husband's body. They made a very difficult time easier to bear.
kenny dunn
Respectful, patient and very accommodating.Made a terrible time a little easier.100% would recommend.
Jayme Elggren
Words can't describe the amount of gratitude we have for McDougal Funeral Homes. We are so thankful for the care and compassion Darren showed our family after losing my dad. We trusted him throughout the process and he exceeded our expectations every step of the way. Every detail was taken care of with kindness and professionalism and he made the whole process easy and worry free. Thank you so much!!!
Mindy Hendrix
Michael McDougal helped my mom and me with my dads memorial services. He handled a problem we were having with an insurance company for us when we were getting nowhere with them. My dads memorial service was simple due to him donating his body to science but Michael helped us with the few things we needed and made us feel like important clients.
Barb Christensen
Losing a child is one of the most difficult experiences a parent may have. Losing two children in less than three months is beyond overwhelming. Michael McDougal was the funeral director for both of our services. Michalel's compassion, kindness and expertise made our grief easier as we had decisions to make. He patiently answered all our questions whether big or small. He helped facilitate small details that may have seemed insignificant but meant the world to us. The staff who helped take my daughter from our home were respectful. The crisp white sheet they wrapped her in will ever be a special memory. Michael's skills were evident when we saw them at their viewings. Michael will always have our sincerest gratitude for caring for loved one's mortal remains in the most respectful and compassionate manner.
Jennifer Hemmert
Thank you to Michael McDougal and the staff at McDougal Funeral Homes for all of your services and comfort during this most difficult time. There is no easy way to say goodbye to loved ones, but thank goodness for people like the McDougal's that are part of our community. I was absolutely certain that my sister would be treated with care and dignity, and because of that I was able to rest easy. I have been able to lean on the McDougal's when a family member has passed away for the past 26 years. I can't adequately express the gratitude and relief that I have because of them during life's worst moments. Thank you β€
June Christiansen
We had purchased planes with another funeral home and upon its sale, were handed off to a second funeral home, and when this one also was sold, we found our plans would be handed over to another morturary we would never have chosen, because of its reputation. Knowing that McDougal Funeral Home had been around for a long time and had a good reputation, we brought brought our plans to them. As they put our plans in place, they were thorough and honest. We felt satisfied we had made the right choice.When my partner passed away, I couldn't have placed her in more compassionate hands. After her body was prepared for viewing she could not have looked more natural and at peace.In preparing for the funeral services and burial, they guided me through the steps and helped me pick just the right casket, flowers and headstone. Their careful attention to every detail of the viewing, service at our church, transportion her body to another city for interment, and the service at the graveside left me free of stress in those matters; and I will be forever indebted to them for making her final celebration so beautiful.A few days after the funeral services they took time to go over all things that I needed to do to resolve her affairs. They patiently answered my questions and extended an offer to help me with any paperwork I might need help with.My own funeral services will be handled by McDougal's at some future time. I feel very comfortable knowing that they will take care of me in the same respectful compassionate way.
Kim Anderton
McDougal Funeral Home has served our family many times. They are honest, respectful, kind, and do every in their power to make a difficult time a little easier. We will never use another mortuary in our time of need and I highly recommend them.
Melissa Lonnecker
Losing a loved one is so overwhelming in every aspect. McDougal Funeral Home has been so helpful every step of the way. They have acted with kindness, compassion and professionalism. They have helped me with so many of the aftercare issues that come up and have given me such good guidance that had eased a lot of my anguish. They gave me answers to questions I didn't know I needed to ask. They come highly recommended from my family and I. Thank you to all of your staff.
Susan
I had a beautiful celebration of life here! I was delighted with how clean and beautiful it was. I had an issue with the audio video, and Austin was excellent to help. I loved. The staff that helped us our. I would. vert much recommend RBIs place.ro anyone.
Lynn Crane
My Dad had purchased a funeral plan from McDougal Funeral Homes over 20 years ago. When he passed we only had to make one call to McDougal and they took care of everything. It was such a relief to the family to be able to celebrate his life without the worry of all the small details that required attention. Amazing after 20 years how much they cared about him and the family and how thoughtful they were afterwards. I received several follow-up calls after the burial from them just checking to see how the family was doing. They also gave us great guidance on how to go about settling his estate. Really appreciate the thoughtful staff that helped us so graciously through this process.
michael gibbs
I had worked with Michael McDougal for several years prior to his getting into the "family business" at the McDougal Funeral Home. I knew and trusted Michael, and when my Mother passed away he was the first and only person I called to facilitate our needs for the family and for my Mother. He and the Mortuary went above and beyond in working with the needs and plans for the funeral, as they do for any who come thru their doors. I know this because I am a professional Bagpiper and I have worked thru McDougal Funeral Homes on that side many times as well, and I have seen that professionalism with many families and funeral services. Their compassion and tact in times of grief is exemplary. They listened to our concerns with my Mother's services and gave advice and suggestions that fit with our budget and made the day of the funeral smooth and hassle free. I would recommend McDougal Funeral Homes, and Michael McDougal personally to any and all who are in need of professional and compassionate services for a deceased loved one. They truly encompass heartfelt service to others at a time that can be difficult and devastating.
Lydia Woodall
Michael and Dave at McDougal were very professional and respectful. They were there every step of the way. We are so very fortunate to have found them. We recommend McDougal Funeral Homes as someone you can trust your family members with.

Everyone was very kind, patient and compassionate, going above and beyond our expectations right from our first visit, to genuine help and concern weeks afterwards. We would highly recommend their expertise and professionalism to family and friends.
Shauna Bona
We highly recommend the McDougal Funeral Home. Michael McDougal in particular showed so much kindness and compassion to our family, not only as we prepared a memorial for our beloved husband and father, but long afterward as we worked to ensure his military service was justly honored with a headstone from the VA. His continuity of care and concern is rare and much appreciated.
Alma Gallegos
It has taken me over a year to write this review. I am so grateful for McDougal Funeral Homes. They listened to our family and worked with us in a respectful manner and helped us create a wonderful memory from such a sad time in our lives. The advice, cost and most importantly the emotional support they have provided, is very much appreciated. Thank you very much!
karen gilmore
McDougal Funeral homes was very helpful and respectful in planning and preparing for the funerals of both my parents. My mom died in 2013 and my dad just passed in January 2021. They helped with all aspects of the funeral and attended to the details that can feel overwhelming. I would highly recommend them!
Carol Venneman
When my husband got a funeral plan from Pam at McDougal in January, I had no idea we would be using it so soon. He died suddenly in February from a heart attack. Jeff at McDougal went the extra mile for me. It took 2 weeks to get my husband shipped to SLC for burial. He called daily to try and get the mortuary in Las Vegas to move faster and was very kind and caring when he finally got there for the graveside. Everyone I dealt with was exceptional. Nicole the receptionist made a beautiful program for the attendees. I very much appreciated all the staff of McDougal for their help during this difficult time. Thank you, Carol Venneman
bunkers mortuary
We utilized McDougal funeral home in assisting a family transport their love one from Salt Lake City to Las Vegas. The entire staff went above and beyond in assisting us. Our staff and the family were extremely pleased with the manner in which things were handled. Iβd use no no other mortuary in Salt Lake City to handle arrangements.
Janet Ollman Blackmer
Mike McDougal did such a good job with my mother's makeup - she looked so alive. He even painted her vault top pink to match her casket. Everything was handled in the most respectful and kindly manner. I would highly recommend this company and will use them, myself, as the need arises. The audio tape of the funeral was clear and crisp. Well done!
Gail Thacker
We met today with Michael to plan our Dad's services. There were many things to plan and consider, but Michael walked us through each step in a professional and patient way. His guidance and advice was appreciated and helpful. He was knowledgeable, kind, and thorough. We left feeling like all was well and taken care of.

It meant so much to us that she was well taking care by people who love their job with all their hearts. A BIG THANKS to McDougal Funeral Home. Keep taking care of family during this special time.
Brian Hogan
Our recent experience with Darren at McDougal Funeral Homes was outstanding. He helped us through a difficult situation after the loss of our mother. They were considerate, passionate and thoughtful with every detail and throughout the entire process. Thank you for making the process much easier and ensuring everything happened just as we planned it.

McDougal Funeral Homes treated my family with kindness, sensitivity and empathy in our time of need. Planning a funeral is never easy, especially when the passing of a loved one is unexpected.The staff was flexible with our immediate need for a service and guided us every step of the way. The service went off without a hitch. That was so important as funerals are highly stressful and emotional, and a smooth service allows us to focus on our family without worrying about logistics.After the funeral, the staff followed up with a checklist to personally guide us through steps we needed to take post a person's passing. Many of us are not experienced with this process, and as this was the first passing in our immediate family, it was extremely helpful.Thank you for taking care of our family during this difficult time and providing a beautiful service.
David Moller
All of the staff have been extremely helpful and supportive after the loss of my father. I would highly recommend McDougal Funeral Homes to anyone searching for a helping hand with end of life planning. They have made this period of my life so much easier. Please do yourself and your loved ones a favor by planning ahead with their help, you won't regret it.
David Rich
At a time that is so painful to us the personnel at McDougal Funeral Home were the most helpful and accommodating I have ever worked with. I would highly recommend them to help you in your time of need as well as talking with them about future needs. I am very happy with them in every since. I was devastated when my wife passed recently but they were there with me through every step of the way.
Glenna Griffiths
I would highly recommend McDougal Funeral Home and have done so to many friends and acquaintances. They have taken care of many of our family members over the years and most recently my husband. They were so kind, caring, compassionate, and professional from the time they picked up his body until the end of the graveside service. When we met with them to plan the viewing and funeral service, they were very concerned about our feelings and carrying out our wishes. They eased our burden by contacting Social Security and making arrangements with the cemetery. They special ordered the casket that we wanted, and they did a fantastic job at preparing my husband's body. They made a very difficult time easier to bear.
Shanna Lelli
I want to thank McDougal Funeral Home for their excellent, tender and compassionate care during the death of my mother. Darren the funeral director was not "smarmy" like some I called. He was real and he was compassionate and helped us put together a beautiful funeral. We were under some budget constraints and he worked with us to make it as affordable as possible. (It was a minimum $3k less than the base price another funeral home I called quoted - and they were so smarmy. It felt fake.) They also put together a beautifully framed memorial of my mother which was at the viewing and each of us in the immediate family will get one.Eric who I talked to originally and who came to get her body, which was so difficult for my dad, did it gently and with much kindness and grace. When my mother-in-law passed they put her in a black body bag and zipped her up. These guys brought a sheet or blanket to wrap her in and it was so much nicer and more comforting. Especially for my dad.I love these guys. They were with us all the way. I felt very cared for. Thank you! I cannot recommend them enough.
Glen Clayburn
What a peaceful feeling to know that when your loved one passes on, McDougal Funeral Homes is there to take care of every detail. Darren and his staff made the heartache that much easier to handle. They took care of everything from arriving at the home at 1am all the way to the last flower being placed on the grave. I'm so blessed to have had them by my side the whole time.
Brandon Acuff (Secbeatsbig10)
Austin and everyone at McDougal Funeral Homes treated us with kindness, compassion, and respect. They carefully coordinated a small viewing in Utah accommodating local friends and family, after my son's tragic Wasatch Ultimate Ridge Linkup mountain accident and then shipping of my son's body to Illinois for his funeral there. Thank you from our family and Andrew's wife Josephine.
Karen Harris
I had the pleasure to work with McDougal funeral home twice in 60 days as to my parents passing so close together. Darren was so kind and professional. It was a very hard time for me being an only child. My parents had pre-planned everything but there was still a few things I had to do. Darren walked me throughout the entire process. My husband and I are now going to pre-plan our services will McDougal. Thank you to everyone there
Adam Sanderson
Answered any and all questions our family had. Took great care of us, sensitive to our feelings and needs. Provided a wonderful service for our father.
LoriAnn Mathews
Michael was amazing with our family. We were needing things to move quickly and he worked extra hard to make it happen. Its never a good thing when yo are working with a mortuary, but McDougal and Michael make it a smooth process, I highly recommend them!
larry nguyen
Jeff and the team are amazing to work with. He was very helpful through the process and was there to help at all hours. Any special accommodations we asked for were also accommodated.
J.B.
Words can hardly express adequately how grateful I am for Darren Parker at McDougal Funeral Homes. I lost my father recently and although he was 84, itβs amazing how unprepared you feel emotionally and in every other way. Darren was there to help us every step of the way. He was professional and reassuring during the most difficult time of losing our hero. Darren arranged everything for usβthe viewing, the funeral and even the graveside services in Idaho which included a military tribute. I feel limited in giving five stars. If I could give 10 stars I would!! Thank you McDougal Funeral Homes for bringing some peace to our hearts at a time when it was desperately needed. I am sure that you understand, just as we do now, how valuable Darren Parker is to your company.
Paul Gardner
Nothing but good things to say about Michael and his team. They provided genuine and sensitive assistance with difficult matters at the time of our mother's passing. And they kindly accommodated our changing needs. We came away feeling as though they truly cared about providing the family with the best possible care.
Larry Albiston
I would like to thank Darren Parker for the love and kindness he showed our family from beginning to end. From the moment he arrived at the VA Care Center, he showed compassion and tenderness to my family. Everything was perfect and I want him to know how he made this difficult time much easier. After making the plans, I asked him what I needed to do and he answered, "Absolutely nothing!" I could not have asked for a better experience!
kenny dunn
Respectful, patient and very accommodating.Made a terrible time a little easier.100% would recommend.
Jayme Elggren
Words can't describe the amount of gratitude we have for McDougal Funeral Homes. We are so thankful for the care and compassion Darren showed our family after losing my dad. We trusted him throughout the process and he exceeded our expectations every step of the way. Every detail was taken care of with kindness and professionalism and he made the whole process easy and worry free. Thank you so much!!!
Mindy Hendrix
Michael McDougal helped my mom and me with my dads memorial services. He handled a problem we were having with an insurance company for us when we were getting nowhere with them. My dads memorial service was simple due to him donating his body to science but Michael helped us with the few things we needed and made us feel like important clients.
Barb Christensen
Losing a child is one of the most difficult experiences a parent may have. Losing two children in less than three months is beyond overwhelming. Michael McDougal was the funeral director for both of our services. Michalel's compassion, kindness and expertise made our grief easier as we had decisions to make. He patiently answered all our questions whether big or small. He helped facilitate small details that may have seemed insignificant but meant the world to us. The staff who helped take my daughter from our home were respectful. The crisp white sheet they wrapped her in will ever be a special memory. Michael's skills were evident when we saw them at their viewings. Michael will always have our sincerest gratitude for caring for loved one's mortal remains in the most respectful and compassionate manner.
Jennifer Hemmert
Thank you to Michael McDougal and the staff at McDougal Funeral Homes for all of your services and comfort during this most difficult time. There is no easy way to say goodbye to loved ones, but thank goodness for people like the McDougal's that are part of our community. I was absolutely certain that my sister would be treated with care and dignity, and because of that I was able to rest easy. I have been able to lean on the McDougal's when a family member has passed away for the past 26 years. I can't adequately express the gratitude and relief that I have because of them during life's worst moments. Thank you β€
June Christiansen
We had purchased planes with another funeral home and upon its sale, were handed off to a second funeral home, and when this one also was sold, we found our plans would be handed over to another morturary we would never have chosen, because of its reputation. Knowing that McDougal Funeral Home had been around for a long time and had a good reputation, we brought brought our plans to them. As they put our plans in place, they were thorough and honest. We felt satisfied we had made the right choice.When my partner passed away, I couldn't have placed her in more compassionate hands. After her body was prepared for viewing she could not have looked more natural and at peace.In preparing for the funeral services and burial, they guided me through the steps and helped me pick just the right casket, flowers and headstone. Their careful attention to every detail of the viewing, service at our church, transportion her body to another city for interment, and the service at the graveside left me free of stress in those matters; and I will be forever indebted to them for making her final celebration so beautiful.A few days after the funeral services they took time to go over all things that I needed to do to resolve her affairs. They patiently answered my questions and extended an offer to help me with any paperwork I might need help with.My own funeral services will be handled by McDougal's at some future time. I feel very comfortable knowing that they will take care of me in the same respectful compassionate way.
Kim Anderton
McDougal Funeral Home has served our family many times. They are honest, respectful, kind, and do every in their power to make a difficult time a little easier. We will never use another mortuary in our time of need and I highly recommend them.
Melissa Lonnecker
Losing a loved one is so overwhelming in every aspect. McDougal Funeral Home has been so helpful every step of the way. They have acted with kindness, compassion and professionalism. They have helped me with so many of the aftercare issues that come up and have given me such good guidance that had eased a lot of my anguish. They gave me answers to questions I didn't know I needed to ask. They come highly recommended from my family and I. Thank you to all of your staff.
Susan
I had a beautiful celebration of life here! I was delighted with how clean and beautiful it was. I had an issue with the audio video, and Austin was excellent to help. I loved. The staff that helped us our. I would. vert much recommend RBIs place.ro anyone.

The most beautiful set up for services of a loved one. Amazing and attentive staff.
Cindy Beebe
Our entire experience was incredible from beginning to end. Everyone was friendly, courteous and went the extra mile to assist us even days and weeks after the funeral was over. My mother looked so beautiful, the makeup was very natural and like everything else, it was done exceptionally well!
Lianne Rowsell
My parents had purchased their plans many years ago, every thing was ready and organized. A simple call and they arrived. They were very respectful and sincere. They were considerate of all involved.They helped us with every thing that we needed.

My husband became one of the unfortunate 22 vets a day we lose to suicide last fall. This funeral home came recommended by a friend who was happy with their services (traditional LDS burial) however, my experience was completely tactless and have yet to receive a response to my concerns expressed last October via letter (they did send me a calendar which quickly found the way into the garbage.) Despite proof with my husbands DD214, I was required to front the $2400 it cost for cremation, I've since come to find out this isn't common practice. (It took nearly two weeks to receive an itemized receipt.) Also I purchased 7 death certificates unknowing my name was misspelled. When I told the funeral director who corrected them, I received no credit and had to give more money to get corrected ones. In addition, when I scheduled a viewing of my husband, he was still in the body bag the medical examiner had him in and the director seemed surprised I wanted to see his hand and had to exit the room while he cleaned my husband off. (Self inflicted gunshot wound.) When I went to pick up the cremains a week later, I was questioned as to whether or not it was even done and stood aside and watched as someone pilfered through boxes of cremains to find my husband located in a bottom cabinet in the office. I'll spare you the details of staff folding a burial flag but needless to say one of the men looked as though he was doing maintenance. Complete disrespect on all counts for someone who sacrificed himself to his country. If by some unfortunate chance you have time to read reviews before choosing someone to care for your loved one, do not go here.
Jeff Russell
Mcdougals treated us so kind and with an excess of tenderness and respect. We will most definitely be using them for future funeral needs. As a family we highly recommend them to all.
James Stapel
Eric was our funeral director and was so awesome to work with, the staff is very friendly and easy to work with. Funeral packages are very competitive and fair! I will us them again if the need should arise.
Ron Caedes
McDougal Funeral Home was very professional and compassionate in my familyβs time of need. They were very helpful and understanding and explained the process very well.
Glen Huff
I would highly recommend this funeral home. They are very professional and caring in all they do. They go the extra mile to ensure that all arrangements are taken care of, both at the time the funeral and beyond. Staff was wonderful to work with. I can comfortably rate them with five stars.
Angela Zarr
Mike was so accomodating, informative and kind. I have had several family members cared for at McDougals. They have always done a wonderful job with our loved ones and grieving family. Thank you so much.
Jon Woodbury
We had a few members of the family (mostly children) that had not eaten for a while on the day of the viewing. I went out and got some food and brought it back. There is a "No Food or Drink" sign on the front door, but before sending everyone outside to eat (it was pretty chilly) I figured I'd ask if there wasn't an area where we could put some food out for them. I ASKED THE MAN IN CHARGE if there was a place we could eat inside and he directed us to an office. I was very appreciative and we set out some fast food in the office. The parents ate and went back to the viewing while the kids sat in the office and ate. As soon as the parents left, the worker went in and screamed and cussed out the little girls saying he'd made a mistake and they had to get out. What kind of person yells and swears at little girls AT THEIR GRANDFATHER'S FUNERAL?!? Especially for being exactly where HE told them to be? When I approached him to tell him what I thought of his behavior and find out more of the story, he actually threatened to call the police. I was, of course, extremely upset, but never threatened or touched him. Absolutely abhorrent behavior from an adult in ANY position, but especially one who is dealing with such a sensitive situation on a day-to-day basis. My daughters were afraid to come inside, they stayed outside on a cold bench for most of the rest of the event.I get that the kids might have gotten loud--they hadn't seen their cousins for a couple of years--but the total and complete lack of respect, decorum, and basic human courtesy was appalling.We had several other issues that I won't go into, but simply put, AVOID this funeral home, especially if you have children involved at all, as they offer nowhere for them to be that is out of the way. Find one that sees you and your family as human beings that have lost a love one, not just as a revenue source that they have an obligation to tolerate.
Eric Pettit
Although the reason for coming was tragic, McDougal was wonderful through everything, friendly and respectful and not pushy. After the service they have reached out multiple times and offered their help and support. Thank you so much
Tina J
They took good care to make sure all the details were covered for us. Their follow up with us a few weeks after was very thoughtful as well.
Connie
Our family had a very positive experience at McDougal Funeral Home. Everyone was very kind, patient and compassionate, going above and beyond our expectations right from our first visit, to genuine help and concern weeks afterwards. We would highly recommend their expertise and professionalism to family and friends.
Shauna Bona
We highly recommend the McDougal Funeral Home. Michael McDougal in particular showed so much kindness and compassion to our family, not only as we prepared a memorial for our beloved husband and father, but long afterward as we worked to ensure his military service was justly honored with a headstone from the VA. His continuity of care and concern is rare and much appreciated.
Alma Gallegos
It has taken me over a year to write this review. I am so grateful for McDougal Funeral Homes. They listened to our family and worked with us in a respectful manner and helped us create a wonderful memory from such a sad time in our lives. The advice, cost and most importantly the emotional support they have provided, is very much appreciated. Thank you very much!
karen gilmore
McDougal Funeral homes was very helpful and respectful in planning and preparing for the funerals of both my parents. My mom died in 2013 and my dad just passed in January 2021. They helped with all aspects of the funeral and attended to the details that can feel overwhelming. I would highly recommend them!
Carol Venneman
When my husband got a funeral plan from Pam at McDougal in January, I had no idea we would be using it so soon. He died suddenly in February from a heart attack. Jeff at McDougal went the extra mile for me. It took 2 weeks to get my husband shipped to SLC for burial. He called daily to try and get the mortuary in Las Vegas to move faster and was very kind and caring when he finally got there for the graveside. Everyone I dealt with was exceptional. Nicole the receptionist made a beautiful program for the attendees. I very much appreciated all the staff of McDougal for their help during this difficult time. Thank you, Carol Venneman
bunkers mortuary
We utilized McDougal funeral home in assisting a family transport their love one from Salt Lake City to Las Vegas. The entire staff went above and beyond in assisting us. Our staff and the family were extremely pleased with the manner in which things were handled. Iβd use no no other mortuary in Salt Lake City to handle arrangements.
Janet Ollman Blackmer
Mike McDougal did such a good job with my mother's makeup - she looked so alive. He even painted her vault top pink to match her casket. Everything was handled in the most respectful and kindly manner. I would highly recommend this company and will use them, myself, as the need arises. The audio tape of the funeral was clear and crisp. Well done!
Gail Thacker
We met today with Michael to plan our Dad's services. There were many things to plan and consider, but Michael walked us through each step in a professional and patient way. His guidance and advice was appreciated and helpful. He was knowledgeable, kind, and thorough. We left feeling like all was well and taken care of.

Kohnie Liscomb
At a time when you are truly unsure and emotionally unstable they were excellent in guiding us through the process. Because my husband had served in the military they obtained all the necessary information with the VA to have his Burial with honors at Camp Williams veterans Cemetery. I give them 5 stars
Kevin Janes
Eric and his team were very professional and caring. My mom had a prepaid plan which proved to be a great blessing. I highly recommend McDougal!
Connie White
As an embalmer in Vegas I was in need of a funeral home in Salt Lake City to embalm and ship a body to us. McDougal's was suggested to me and they did not disappoint. Thank you for the great embalming job!
Steenbergen Lyn
We had a great experience with our moms service. Staff did an amazing job on her video! Darren was so, so awesome from the beginning to end! Thank you again Darren!
Dawna Erickson
I would not recommend this funeral home to anyone if you need to use their chapel. I attended my Aunts services today February 8th, 2016 and the the microphone was broken. When I say broken, I mean that it wouldn't hold its position on the podium so the person doing the eulogy had to try to hold it up the entire time and the feed back was so awful you couldn't understand what they were saying. Our poor singers experienced so much squelch that you couldn't even appreciate their beautiful talents. I will be more frustrated if the recording of the services that they provide to the family has this same quality of sound as during the service as this is our last formal memories of our loved one. They obviously haven't read previous post because there is another comment from January about the same issue. It may not seem important to them but as a loved one, there are so many emotions the day of the funeral that sometimes you want to re listen to the services at a later time or provide a copy to those who may not have been able to attend, so it is a big deal if the sound system Stinks. They were also doing some type of "fixing" more like "pounding" in an ajacent room during the services. So frustrating!
Jen Pech
Jeff did an amazing job with the passing of my mother in law. The care and concern he and his staff showed our family was so sincere and heartfelt.

Find one that sees you and your family as human beings that have lost a love one, not just as a revenue source that they have an obligation to tolerate.

Although the reason for coming was tragic, McDougal was wonderful through everything, friendly and respectful and not pushy. After the service they have reached out multiple times and offered their help and support. Thank you so much

At a time when you are truly unsure and emotionally unstable they were excellent in guiding us through the process. Because my husband had served in the military they obtained all the necessary information with the VA to have his Burial with honors at Camp Williams veterans Cemetery. I give them 5 stars
Levi Gibson
Very unprofessional they made 5 big mistakes for my brothers funeral which he had already had everything planned out and everything was picked out in 2006. How could they leave out words on a headstone. We even had to ask them to trim his hair before they viewing

Eric and his team were very professional and caring. My mom had a prepaid plan which proved to be a great blessing. I highly recommend McDougal!

As an embalmer in Vegas I was in need of a funeral home in Salt Lake City to embalm and ship a body to us. McDougal's was suggested to me and they did not disappoint. Thank you for the great embalming job!

I would not recommend this funeral home to anyone if you need to use their chapel. I attended my Aunts services today February 8th, 2016 and the the microphone was broken. When I say broken, I mean that it wouldn't hold its position on the podium so the person doing the eulogy had to try to hold it up the entire time and the feed back was so awful you couldn't understand what they were saying. Our poor singers experienced so much squelch that you couldn't even appreciate their beautiful talents. I will be more frustrated if the recording of the services that they provide to the family has this same quality of sound as during the service as this is our last formal memories of our loved one. They obviously haven't read previous post because there is another comment from January about the same issue. It may not seem important to them but as a loved one, there are so many emotions the day of the funeral that sometimes you want to re listen to the services at a later time or provide a copy to those who may not have been able to attend, so it is a big deal if the sound system Stinks. They were also doing some type of "fixing" more like "pounding" in an ajacent room during the services. So frustrating!

Jeff did an amazing job with the passing of my mother in law. The care and concern he and his staff showed our family was so sincere and heartfelt.

Michael McDougal helped us when my grandmother passed away. He was very kind and comforting in our time of grief. He listened to what we needed for her and for us.

McDougal Funeral Home and staff were so professional, helpful, and kind in their help dealing with the arrangements for my dadβs passing. I highly recommend them to anyone going through this difficult process.
Noe Recendez
Very friendly staff and really shows compassion. When dealing with a difficult time, they really know how to provide respectable service. We chose the least expensive options, due to finances, but they treated us like we were hi profile clients.
