Dear Ed and Kirk,
On behalf of the family of Marie Martini, we want to thank you both for providing such wonderful service and making mom's special day very beautiful. Your guidance and support was most comforting and eased the pain immensely. It was a pleasure working with you both and thank you again for taking such good care of us
Dear Kirk and Ed,
Thank you so much for your excellent support before and during our mother’s services. You made it easy for us to navigate the difficult time. You were clear, compassionate, caring, punctual and professional - mom would have appreciated that! It was a wonderful three days with so many friends and family surrounding us during this time. We had so many compliments on how nicely everything was handled. You certainly contributed to that.
Gratefully,
Dear Kirk, I can't thank you enough for all the work and effort you put into getting our brother Louis taken care of.
Dear Kirk,
This note is long overdue, the last 5 months have been a blur.
I just want to thank you for all your help when my husband
died.
Dear Mr. Leon,
I can’t say enough about the service we received from Duggan’s Mission Chapel after my father’s passing. This was a very difficult time for us, especially during Covid.
Kirk is a delight, and helpful. My father’s memorial Web page turned out beautiful. He did a nice job. Kirk pays attention to detail, returned calls promptly and always willing to help.
Mr. Leon you have a great team working for you. You should be very proud!
Thank you!
Sincerely yours,
Debra Kick and the Talbot family
Dear Kirk,
Thank you for your kind attention in managing the details of my mom's death and funeral. I think she would have approved. The circumstances were surreal, but the intimacy, love and sacredness shined through. I appreciated your practical yet caring approach before, during and after the event. Thank you for your good service.
Warm regards,
Sara V. C.

Dear Staff of Duggan's Mission Chapel,
Thank you for your very thoughtful gift of a living memorial tree in the Penny Pines Plantation of the Mendocino National Forest in memory of mother, Emma F. She will be in Michigan for her interment. So now, I will have a local spot to visit in her memory.
Thank you once again--

Ed and Kirk,

Dear Mr. Leon,
I would like to thank you for the excellent service I received from your staff. I was so impressed from the time that my mother, Eleanor K., came in some 19 years ago to make her arrangements, to her service. I was especially impressed and grateful for all you did to make a sad time easier. Efficient but also thoughtful and caring. I just can't say enough about what a blessing this was a t a difficult time.
Sincerely,
Patti V.
Duggan's Mission Chapel Staff,
Please accept our sincerest thank you for all you have done for our loved one James M. S. and our family.
You were there when we needed you most and we are forever grateful!
In addition you honored Jim in the best way possible--He was an outdoorsman and the trees were his favorite! Now he has one planted in his honor.
Again we can't thank you enough,
Gloria S. and the Jim S. Family
Handling my sister’s final arrangements is by far the hardest thing I have ever done. Kirk provided a special kind of compassion. Never once did I feel unheard.
Duggan’s Mission Chapel and again, more specifically Kirk, literally helped every step of the way through this difficult stage of the grief. Whatever he could do to help, he offered and did. Professionalism and sensitivity made every difference in the world. Words cannot express the respect and gratitude I feel for Kirk and all the service and assistance provided. On behalf of my family, thank you for helping us to truly honor my sister's final journey.
Dear Duggan's Staff,
Thank you for planting a tree in honor of my mom, Gaetana D. What a terrific idea! We love trees!
Thanks again,
Gail P.

At the most difficult of times Duggan's handled the loss of our mother in a professional and caring manner. She had prepaid her requests and you fine tuned them to help keep the costs down. We certainly appreciated that. The staff was kind throughout our meeting and knowing how emotional we were advised us to take our time with decisions. Also we received a lovely card from them a few weeks later indicating that they arranged to have a tree planted in the Mendocino national forest to honor her life. Wonderful and we were very touched.
Staff at Duggan's Mission Chapel:
Thank you so much for your services and for the donation of the tree in the Penny Pines Plantation in my mom's name.
We appreciate your courteous service in this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Cathy G. on behalf of the R. Family.
Dear Staff of Duggan's,
What a lovely surprise! Carlos would cherish the idea [Penny Pines tree planting memorial in Mendocino National Forest]--we camped there often.
Thank you,
Kit
Dear Duggans:
Thank you so much for planting a tree in memory of our mother, Rosemary A. H., and for your wonderful service.
Love and hugs,
Lynn, Angela, Jules, Anthony and Nicole and their families.
Duggan's Mission Chapel--
We truly appreciate the generous memorial to our Mom. It was far more than we ever expected. It was truly appreciated.
Thank you again.
Thank you all so much for your care and kindness. The passing of my Father has been horribly surreal and you all made such a positive impact during such a difficult time. For all you do--thank you!
Thank you for planting a tree for Hank. Your kindness is greatly appreciated. Thank you for helping us with making arrangements.
On behalf of my husband's family, I want to thank you for having a tree planted as a memorial to my beloved husband. What a beautiful tribute!
During the unexpected passing of my step-dad, our family was relieved to have the professional services of Duggan's Mission Chapel. During this extremely emotional time, the caring and professional staff were able to meet all our needs without causing any further distress. We definitely recommend Duggan's to anyone in need of funeral services.
Wonderful staff and experience for us at a very difficult time. Thorough, caring, efficient, and compassionate with the handling of the passing of a dear friend. Went above and beyond to respond to our needs. Took care of all details effectively. Would highly recommend this funeral home for the handling of the last wishes of your loved one.
Absolutely one of the best, and most professional funeral service providers I have ever experienced. Not only were they swift and efficient, but they were able to accommodate the special needs of our family. They took fantastic care in fulfilling the plans my father in law had pre-arranged before his passing. We couldn't have been happier with their excellent services.
Thank you for your chapel's good care of my husband, Don O. We were especially appreciative of your opening the chapel for our entire family to be together with Don. Don was a forester grad. in college and would love having a tree planted in his honor.
Sincerely,
Mary O. and Family
