| 1. | Mon, 5/21/07 7:37 PM | I can't think of any additional features at this time. |
| 2. | Mon, 5/21/07 7:39 PM | Well being that it is a funeral home or an incorporation of funeral homes I would add a guest-book for the deceased family. A lot of funeral home websites and newspaper sites offer a guest-book service for family and friends who live far away. It is another way for them to express their condolences.
Another thing that would be good for this site is a link or a sponsored ad for flowers. This way people can send flowers to the funeral home of where the person is being laid out. It just makes it convenient. |
| 3. | Mon, 5/21/07 7:41 PM | Improved portraits of the staff your selling an image of professionaism pictures shot on the fly do not cut it. |
| 4. | Mon, 5/21/07 7:42 PM | I like it as presented |
| 5. | Mon, 5/21/07 7:54 PM | Can't think of anything. |
| 6. | Mon, 5/21/07 7:56 PM | The Obituaries are a really nice touch. Pictures would be nice. Don't funeral homes usually have coffins? What about flowers? Do they offer that kind of stuff? I don't know much about funeral homes. I'd be interested in reading more on services. |
| 7. | Mon, 5/21/07 7:58 PM | larger print |
| 8. | Mon, 5/21/07 8:07 PM | Links to family concern sites |
| 9. | Mon, 5/21/07 8:18 PM | Prices |
| 10. | Mon, 5/21/07 8:22 PM | None. |
| 11. | Mon, 5/21/07 8:27 PM | As previously noted, obituaries. Also a guestbook where people can relay their sympathies to the family. |
| 12. | Mon, 5/21/07 8:29 PM | I didn't see anything about how to make a memorial board with pictures or any other options such as mass cards or how to write an obituary. |
| 13. | Mon, 5/21/07 8:32 PM | Nothing I can think of. |
| 14. | Mon, 5/21/07 8:39 PM | Do people usually give general idea of the cost of the funernal? (I am not sure about this one, just a suggestion)
Does the funeral home have email address? I only found the phone numbers. |
| 15. | Mon, 5/21/07 8:39 PM | None - I can think of |
| 16. | Mon, 5/21/07 9:02 PM | I can not think of anything else that I was looking for that was not there |
| 17. | Mon, 5/21/07 9:04 PM | Maybe more info on what steps need to be taken when you have a death in the family, especially if no preplanning was done |
| 18. | Mon, 5/21/07 9:07 PM | Pricing should be easier to locate than at the resources section. Unless I didn't catch it, but I think there should be a break down of the rates a lot sooner. |
| 19. | Mon, 5/21/07 9:12 PM | Testamonials were good idea, but they need to be added. |
| 20. | Mon, 5/21/07 9:15 PM | Link to other services that would be needed when a love one passes. |
| 21. | Mon, 5/21/07 9:24 PM | I can't think of much else. I haven't had much experience with funeral homes. From the site, this appears to be a dignified and helpful home. |
| 22. | Mon, 5/21/07 9:27 PM | I also think that either have the background letter more faded or the forground title more bold or slightly larger. The background letter takes away the focus of the title a little too much... just a tad. Overall a good idea. |
| 23. | Mon, 5/21/07 9:35 PM | It seems fairly complete. No suggestions |
| 24. | Mon, 5/21/07 10:43 PM | Some more photos of the facilities would be nice. |
| 25. | Mon, 5/21/07 10:50 PM | its pretty good as is |
| 26. | Mon, 5/21/07 10:51 PM | Perhaps a phone number on the home page |
| 27. | Mon, 5/21/07 10:54 PM | Some funeral homes have a guest book for people to sign over the web who are long distance, or may not be able to make it for the services. This would be something that a person may want to use to leave there condolenses, or express how imporatnat that person was in there life. |
| 28. | Mon, 5/21/07 11:50 PM | None...looks great |
| 29. | Mon, 5/21/07 11:58 PM | more information about choices and costs so I would have a better idea what to expect |
| 30. | Tue, 5/22/07 12:13 AM | Obituary page.....seemed crowed..difficult to read...everything seemed on top of each...needs to be spaced out more...? double space between lines of text. |
| 31. | Tue, 5/22/07 3:40 AM | None at the moment |
| 32. | Tue, 5/22/07 9:14 AM | None |
| 33. | Tue, 5/22/07 1:28 PM | n/a |
| 34. | Tue, 5/22/07 1:30 PM | I wasn't sure why I would want to do an advanced search. Perhaps you can give some suggestions as to why this page is important. Right now it seems like just an add-on. |
| 35. | Tue, 5/22/07 2:35 PM | I understand that the site is newly designed; and, I would encourage the addition of more educational information regarding the various burial options so that people like myself can 'learn' more about pricing, packages, and the differences between traditional burial expenses versus cremation expenses. Or, perhaps links to various professional articles on cremation and burial issues, questions, etc. would be very helpful for those of us who should be planning a will, burial planning, estate planning, etc. in our babyboomer years.

| 36. | Tue, 5/22/07 3:01 PM | I can't think of anything. I like that it has an article about children's questions about death. |
| 37. | Tue, 5/22/07 3:07 PM | Nothing I can think of. All the major info I needed was easily found. |
| 38. | Tue, 5/22/07 3:27 PM | The number of years in business on the home or about us page. |
| 39. | Tue, 5/22/07 4:13 PM | I'm waiting to see the testimonials. I alos found the site somewhat sober. I guess this is in keeping with the subject. |
| 40. | Tue, 5/22/07 4:29 PM | perhaps a 'what to do next' guide for someone that needs your services, but is not comfotable calling. Or maybe a step-by-step guide of the process you use with your clients. |
| 41. | Tue, 5/22/07 6:11 PM | none that I can think of.... |
| 42. | Tue, 5/22/07 7:28 PM | none - looks great. Nice job. |
| 43. | Tue, 5/22/07 8:21 PM | It has all the information that you need. |
| 44. | Wed, 5/23/07 12:45 AM | Maybe interior shots of the funeral homes. |
| 45. | Wed, 5/23/07 3:28 PM | the use of frames to the website so the navigation buttons are always visible.
Use of bookmarks on the staff page. |
| 46. | Thu, 5/24/07 1:20 AM | Cost estimate calculator on funeral services.
Links to gifts or donation sites for the greiving family. |
| 47. | Thu, 5/24/07 2:34 AM | Services provided. |
| 48. | Thu, 5/24/07 3:22 PM | Links to other services such as accommodations - since I am in the hotel industry! We service many families with out of town guests when they have to make arrangements for funerals. We also offer berevement rates - so helpful for funeral homes to offer this service. |
| 49. | Thu, 5/24/07 6:21 PM | To be consistent, at least 1 inside picture of the funeral home. Only a couple have an inside picture. |
| 50. | Fri, 5/25/07 4:22 PM | This was very complete. |
| 51. | Fri, 5/25/07 6:29 PM | By adding a travel link, customers could:
Book travel arrangements/accommodations for out of state family members who may travel in town.
Book flowers through this site.
This will set a marked difference among other funeral home.

| 52. | Mon, 5/28/07 5:19 AM | prices and such would be nice |
