I have always thought that healing from grief begins after the funeral or service. I can now say it can begin much sooner. Our family suffered a tragic, sudden loss with my sister's death on a late Friday afternoon. Mike Ashe, and his son Ben, had facilitated my mom's viewing and cremation almost 14 years ago. When I got the call from my nephew of my sister's passing, I looked up Mike's number and called. Mike gave me the number for Heritage and assured me everything would be taken care of and that he would meet with the family on Monday. I don't know the name of the man who answered the phone, but he was very kind and assured me someone would be there right away. I don't know who the guys were who picked up my sister with such compassion and dignity. I don't know the people who catered our reception. I do know Mike's name, and he helped us through the planning, viewing and reception with great care and compassion for the entire family. I realized as I drove home after all the goodbyes, healing of the grief began from the first phone call thanks to your great staff.Coments I received:My nephew regarding all Mike's help, "He is so amazing and I'm so grateful for all he has done for us "My oldest sister, "That was so unbelievably wonderful."My niece, "The Time of Relection was beautiful and mom looked so peaceful."
One set of grandparents are at rest within Wilhelm Portland Memorial Funeral Home. I accompanied my grandmother on many occasions when she wanted to be with my grandfather or she needed to talk to someone in the funeral home. On one of or visits, one of the men employees took my father and me on a tour of the facilities. His depth of knowledge and respect for those interned was amazing. He asked cogent questions about our family and then directed us toward things and crypts relevant to us.
A tour of this amazing Mausoleum is a fascinating way to look at 150 years of Portland history, art and craftsmanship. The things that have changed over time and those that have not, give great insight into our culture. Michelle, our docent, presented the story of this facility with respect for those interred and dedication to the Wilhelm mission.
Michelle was gracious, knowledgeable, compassionate, and guided us through a treasury of art, history, and Portland lore showing both respect and enthusiasm as we toured this truly amazing landmark mausoleum. It's size and beauty are overwhelming. I highly recommend touring this fascinating memorial.
