"I would like to begin by simply saying, "THANK YOU." Each of those letters are capitalized because there are simply not enough words to express how grateful our entire family is to Colonial Chapel Funeral Home and Crematory in Orland Park. During this most difficult time of our lives, the loss of our son, Randy, we were treated with such compassion, kindness, dignity, and respect that they truly felt like part of our family. Dave and the entire staff went above and beyond to comfort us and guide through every step of the way and detail. They made an overwhelming and heartbreaking experience so much easier by guiding us with professionalism, patience, and loving care. A very special thank you to Dave who worked with us from the very start to end. Dave was absolutely wonderful. His compassion, attention to detail, and sincere concern for our family meant more than words can ever express. He never made us feel rushed and was always there to answer questions, offer guidance, and make sure every detail honored our son, Randy's life in the most beautiful way possible. Colonial Chapel and Crematory did not just provide a service alone. They provided our family with comfort, peace, and trust that our son was being honored with the love and dignity he truly deserved. This is something we will always remember. I without hesitation highly recommend Colonial Funeral Home and Crematory for your loved one. They exceeded every expectation we had, and we will be forever thankful for everything they did for Randy and for our entire family. Respectfully, The Schmitz Family"
