Testimonials

At Eastgate Funeral Service and Parkway Funeral Service, our care for families does not end with the funeral. Each family that we serve will receive our family survey form, which when completed, allows us the opportunity to learn more about how we serve our community and whether or not we were able to address every need of the family. The survey enables us to improve our service to families in the future. Please take a moment to read some of the wonderful testimonials received from families served:

"Joe Braun…just a little note to thank you for doing such a great job guiding us through the funeral process for our dad. It was a lovely memorial service and Eastgate/Parkway made it a lot easier than it could have been. You and your staff were the picture of efficiency and professionalism. You made us feel like our dad’s service was the most important one on your agenda. The individual attention to each and every detail was the most appreciated. We were also impressed with the unexpected special touches that were neatly packed in our take home bag. There is a reason why we have entrusted Eastgate/Parkway…you are the best. Thank you for everything! "

-M.W. and Family, Bismarck

"We were very pleased with the professionalism of every detail. Everyone showed such care and sympathy. Parkway made this tragic event in our life something we will always remember. I felt they were part of making the world stop for a day to give tribute to our son. Joe is our new best friend"

"Lois was so helpful in final details. Our family has known the Eastgate family for years. They run a very fine business and are well respected. Mother looked absolutely beautiful. Having been in a nursing facility for years-the funeral home made her up so well-she looked like she did 10 years ago! The grandchildren said she looked just like we remembered her-her friends said she looked like she was ready to play bridge again."

-J.G., Bismarck

"(We were) totally satisfied and appreciative of presence and continued assistance at the church and prior to and after the funeral mass. Bob Eastgate provided service I didn't know we needed-we were very thankful. The atmosphere/ambiance of the facility is excellent, very professional, kind, considerate, and available."
