The Mohnke Janowicz Funeral Home difference

“I recently attended a visitation here for Larry Staffen. A wonderful man who will be greatly missed by all who knew him. You can tell by all the people that came to visit and show support to his family. The funeral home had lots of space to accommodate everyone. They were very friendly. Thank you for all you did.”

“The loss of a loved one is traumatic no matter how the death occurs. Both Shari and Melissa helped me to deal with very difficult decisions in a kind and gentle manner. They allowed me to do what was best for us, for this situation. No questioning, no doubting, or pushing me to do more to celebrate the life of my brother. I was comforted by them every step of the way and I appreciate every little thing they have done.”

“It is a hard setting up a funeral for a family member. Trusting and feeling comfortable with the funeral home is so important. Sheri and Ron Mohnke were excellent. They were very accommodating to our needs and worked hard to make us feel comfortable. Thank you Ron and Sheri.”

“I first met Melissa when my mom passed away 7 years ago. She was the most kind, caring and genuine person at the time when I needed it most. She was also very organized and professional in her business operations, which I appreciated. My mom's service was perfect in every way. Melissa has now expanded her business from one location in Remus to a second by acquiring Mohnke Funeral Home in Big Rapids. I know the Big Rapids community well and they will appreciate Melissa's approach/style in providing assistance during difficult times. I would highly recommend Mohnke Janowicz Funeral Home when the unfortunate need arises...”

“The death experience is not a pleasant experience in and of itself to go through. It helps greatly to have the willing compassion, knowledge, and guidance of a caring, empathic team of professionals on your side. I have known and worked with Melissa Janowicz closely for well over 10 years now and can attest to that truth personally. I have watched and observed her team in action dealing with real people, in a real world, suffering with the heart wrenching reality of a loved ones passing. Melissa and her team are real people who know the healing balm of human understanding and compassion. I can absolutely with a full heart recommend highly the services that Melissa Janowicz offers through her family funeral homes! Pastor Randy Piatt”
