Testimonials

They went above and beyond our expectations, when my mother passed away. Every time we have visited Rairigh-Bence Funeral Home since then we have been very pleased.

It was the first time I needed the services of a funeral home. It was a very sad and very hard time in my life. Dave

Rairigh and Rairigh-Bence Funeral Home helped me and my family through every aspect of dealing with a death and making all of the arrangements we needed to make. And there’s a lot; things you don’t even think about. Dave answered so many of our questions, and

we had a lot. My dad lived in Maryland and his funeral service was in Clymer, which added another dimension to everything. Dave didn’t miss a beat. My dad was a Veteran. Dave and his staff went above and beyond in all that they did and made sure that everything

was taken care of. They contacted everyone, kept us informed of everything. And Dave was genuine, he was sympathetic and caring. He and his staff took care of every detail. I can tell you that I felt comforted, taken care of, and blessed at one of the worst

times of my life. The services at the funeral home, the church and the cemetery were beautiful. A million thank yous could never be enough. But thank you Dave and Rairigh-Bence Funeral Home, and God bless.

Dave and Taylor help our family through the loss of my brother in law, everything they did, they did with compassion and caring for the family.

Often, we receive thank you notes and cards from the families we’ve served. Each of these heartfelt messages means more to us than we can express here, because it affirms the fact that we have made a difference for that family.  We help families celebrate, honor, and memorialize a loved one by providing compassionate attentive care, and by doing so with professionalism. Take some time to read their words.

So many people commented on how pretty and peaceful she  looked. You wiped away all the awful images of her in her last days.  I appreciated your attention to detail and taking care of all the small issues. You treated us like family. You and your staff are a credit to your profession.

We had many compliments from relatives and friends attending regarding the lovely funeral home and professionalism and graciousness of you and your staff. Our highest regard and respect.

David-- thank you for not being just a businessman, but a caring and thoughtful individual. You helped us cope with our loss and make decisions. We will always be grateful

Thanks to you, I will be able to remember my dad sleeping peacefully, looking healthy and the way I want to remember him. You gave me the opportunity to really say the final goodbye without judgement or question and I will always respect and appreciate you and your business for that.

My family are very thankful to David Rairigh and Taylor Allison. The pain of losing our father in 2019 and mother in 2021 was eased by their care, compassion, and kindness. Their planning and coordination took that concern off the family so we could concentrate on remembering mom and dad.

We are forever grateful to both David and Taylor and highly recommend them in time of need.

Our family is so thankful that we had Taylor to help guide us through a very difficult time. The pain of losing our Mom was overwhelming. Taylor stepped right in and comforted our hearts as we made decisions for our Mom’s funeral. Taylor is the person you want at a time like this. I can’t even express how much she helped us! Her thoughtfulness on the small details will stay with us forever. Our Mom’s favorite flower was a yellow rose and Taylor surprised my brothers, sister and me by giving each of us a yellow rose at the cemetery. Taylor even had a yellow rose for my brother, Teddy, in heaven. We gave that rose to Teddy’s widow, Pam, and it was a beautiful moment. I dried my yellow rose and will keep it forever.

Taylor’s kind heart helped us get through the worst days. We knew our Mom was in caring hands and that comforted our family.

Thank you Taylor! I know you will continue to comfort other families experiencing such difficult loss. You are an angel on this earth!

I am writing this on behalf of our Mother, Patricia L. Smith, and the entire Smith family.

After the loss of my Dad, we were so grateful and appreciative of David and his team at Rairigh-Bence. We had three days of services, and it felt as though David and his team were close family friends. They gently guided us through every step. They were always three steps ahead and brought some light to a very difficult time. They were so kind, respectful and endlessly professional. This was my first experience dealing with a funeral home, and I would highly recommend Rairigh-Bence.

As another plus, they donated the flowers to a local nursing home for the patients to use during arts and crafts. 💜 

Dave, Jenny and Taylor have served my family in the extremes of circumstances, with pre-planned care for my aging and declining uncle in the months before he passed, and with assistance at an instant's notice in the sudden, unexpected death of my wife. Their responsiveness is unparalleled: even at 1:30 a.m., my schedule became their schedule. Their compassion is genuine: they walked me through every step of the process and told me what to expect. Their business acumen is top-notch: they explained every option and price, all the legal and logistical nuances (my wife died 400 miles away, in another state) and answered many questions before I thought to ask them. For me, there was no shopping around. I started with Rairigh-Bence Funeral Home and looked no farther.
