"My mother recently passed away and I didn't know what to expect or what to do to plan her funeral. My siblings and I engaged the services of Verhoeve Funeral Home because from the very first interaction with Robert, he was considerate, compassionate and detail oriented. He took very good care of our families needs and excellent care of my mom too. I very much appreciated the respect from all the members of the Verhoeve team and highly recommend their services. They made a difficult time much easier from detailed explanations and planning of the funeral to applying for the CPP Death Benefit and stopping CPP/OAS payments on our behalf. They really go above and beyond to try and help in any ways they can."

Their professionalism, attention to detail and absolute compassion to our families was second to none. I could truly feel that they wanted everything to go perfectly and gave me such confidence that my beautiful Monique would be taken care of. From the bottom of my heart, “Thank you.""

"Verhoeve Funeral Home, 
I cannot say enough about the care and compassion you have shown to my Madison when she lost her father so young. You went above and beyond to make even the experience of saying Goodbye as comfortable for her as you could. The pure heart and kindness you have shown will forever be remembered as a positive in her darkest hour. 
Please know how grateful and appreciative we are for all that you have done."

"My husband passed away recently and he entrusted Verhoeve's with his final wishes. Maurice and Robert and rest of the family were so professional, compassionate and caring during this difficult time. They handled most everything they could to take off our plates which was so appreciative. Robert and Maurice made themselves available any time of the day or night if we had questions and were very quick to respond if we had to reach out. 
They are truly a class "A" service and we are very appreciative to have them lead the way for us in our time of grief."
-The Medai Family (May 2023)

"The Verhoeve family treated my Mother, and our family, like their own family. The arrangements for our Mother were done with kindness, thoughtfulness, thoroughness and with great attention to detail. All of our questions were taken care of. Robert and Maurice were available whenever we needed them. Everything from logistics, to notifications, to scheduling with the Church, were all addressed. They treated us and our Mother with compassion and with the utmost professionalism. Their personal approach made a difficult time so much easier. We could not have made a better choice than Verhoeve's."

"In the recent loss of our Mother we entrusted the service of Maurice J. Verhoeve Funeral Homes. The staff offered very professional service with genuine compassion and care during this difficult time. A very special thanks to Robert and family for taking good care of us."
-The Newell's (February 2022)

"The Verhoeve family offers exceptional service, professional and courteous, but with the concern and “heart” of a well run family owned business. They handled all of the funeral arrangements of my father, Charles, in 2003, and, more recently, my mother, Mary, who passed away Dec. 12, 2021. Each time, they understood our family’s wishes, and did their very best to ensure all were fulfilled. We could not have been in better hands, and I will always be eternally grateful."
-Bryan Bigney (December 2021)

Sincerely, 
-Irene Welch and family (September 2020)

"Losing a loved one is a challenge at the best of times. Doing so in the middle of a pandemic adds a whole new set of challenges. Robert, with the whole Verhoeve staff team were excellent in guiding us through the new process step by step. They ensured that there were no surprises along the way. They did their best to honour any request that we had, no matter how small it seemed. They were willing to come and meet outside at our parents home making the whole process much easier on our family. They worked around any and all issues that arose, due to covid restrictions, with professionalism and empathy. Any questions were answered promptly. Robert was available by phone at any time. The live stream service provided out of province, extended family members and friends to be included. We feel that we received the best care and service possible during one of the worst times of our lives. Thank you Maurice, Robert and staff. We are forever grateful."
-The Robinson Family (May 2020)

-Barb Trickett and Stacey Morris (September 2019)

"It's never easy when a loved one passes away. You may think you are ready, but you never can be.
Very recently, my mother passed away.
We entrusted the services of Maurice J. Verhoeve Funeral Homes. There was never any question on using them, they are very well known and respected family run business in the Tillsonburg area for many years. However, having said that, I have never had a loss this close and therefore, I have never had to be involved with this last Celebration of life, and all the things which go along with the passing of someone.
Our choice could not have been better...… the service, compassion, and genuine care we received from Maurice J. Verhoeve Funeral Homes completely helped our entire family get through this sad time. There are so many things to consider and to complete in such a short period of time. Everything was so well looked after for us.
Again, thank you to all the staff at Verhoeve Funeral Homes."
-Wes Hutchison (January 2019)

“I just want to thank you and your family for the wonderful display today and to say my grandma looked her very best! Everyone was very impressed with our experience.”
-Alicia C. (December 2018)

“The Verhoeve family went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for us at our time of grief. They had so many suggestions and answers for us. So professional and yet caring. Even after the funeral they came a few times to check on us to see if we had any questions of what we needed to do. So thoughtful in so many ways. Can't thank them enough for everything. God bless them.”
-Carrie Holbrook (October 2018)
