The Family of Dora C Garcia would like to extend our gratitude to Buck Ashcraft/San Benito Funeral Home staff Jim Pitts, Jesse Zavala , Edna Rojas & Elizabeth.. Our family is grateful for all your support , compassion and guidance. During our time of loss of our mother, your staff guided us through every step we needed to take. All of your amazing staff was there for us. We will always remember your staff’s exceptional professionalism. We greatly appreciate everything you did for us all!

Thank you for the excellent service you provided for our father, Higinio B. Guerra. Everything was so beautiful, my father looked so clean and handsome. Thank you again.

My mother looked beautiful. The chapel, the dining room, and even the bathrooms were clean, updated, and beautiful.

Myself and my family were very pleased with services rendered by Buck Ashcraft San Benito Funeral Home. They are very attentive to our families and needs and the services were rendered in a highly professional and prompt manner.

The staff at Buck Ashcraft San Benito Funeral Home made a difficult time much easier. They went above and beyond to help. I highly recommend the use of their services.

Your team provided such a beautiful service. The slideshow was beautiful and seeing all the pictures printed was a wonderful surprise. Thank you so much.

Everyone was so helpful and kind. The staff made sure everything ran smoothly. Thank you again for always answering our questions and having the services run smoothly.

Jim Pitts and Team,
Once I had a chance to watch the memorial video and look through the guest book, I was in awe of the wonderful work you did to make them very special. I am so appreciative of the great job you did coordinating Dennis' memorial service. You made those uncomfortable moments bearable with your compassion and professionalism (and Kleenex!).
With much gratitude,
LeeAnn Henderson

Jim Pitts and staff are most understanding and made this heartbreaking time so much easier.

Buck Ashcraft Funeral Home has been a family tradition for as long as I can remember. It wasn't until I had to prepare my mothers services that I realized why. The men and women at Buck Ashcraft are there to serve our needs in our time of need, everything is explained in time and there is no rush, and finally; everything was the way mom wanted!

Thank you so much.

All staff members were pleasant, professional and genuinely supportive all through the process.

Just a great bunch of people who made this very hard decision much easier to deal with.

Jim Pitts is so friendly and compassionate. He made everything so much less painful. I have utilized other establishments because of prearrangements, but never again! Buck Ashcraft San Benito Funeral Home staff is wonderful and anticipated our every need!

The services provided by Buck Ashcraft Funeral Home provided to my Sisters and me were excellent. We made arrangements in person but then had to return to our own state, but they continued to keep us updated every step of the way. Everyone was so kind, gentle and caring during a very sad time in our lives. Everyone showed respect and professionalism from the beginning to the end giving us peace of mind and closure. We highly recommend this funeral home should the need arise.

The Garcia family would like to send a heartfelt thank you to the entire staff of Buck Ashcraft San Benito Funeral Home for providing an outstanding celebration of life service for my Grandfather Felipe Gonzalez. The entire staff went above and beyond to ensure our requests were met and that we were provided excellent care during a trying time. Thank you to Jim Pitts, Jesse Zavala, Robert Cepeda, Susie Velazquez, Irma Wiley & Edna Rojas; we are truly grateful.

Incredibly KIND, patient, understanding, and professional staff at every level. I recommend Buck Ashcraft San Benito Funeral Home to any and everyone, because their level of service is unmatched. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for helping me when I experienced the sudden loss of my spouse. You will never be forgotten.

I’d like to thank Jim Pitts, Jesse Zavala, Robert Cepeda and the entire Buck Ashcroft staff for the outstanding service and compassion provided. They did an outstanding job in very short period of time even while dealing with more than just our loss. It is greatly appreciated.

Edna went above and beyond to get services arranged for us. We only had a short time to be there and Edna did everything she could for us.

The funeral home has handled many funerals for my family and friends over the years and they have always provided compassionate and excellent services.

Very professional! Compassion. Excellent Staff. Patience with the client. Help with the procedure for out-of-town arrangements was outstanding!

Compassionate beyond words.

Everything was exactly the way I wanted, and staff are very nice and understanding. Thank you.

I would like to thank Jesus Zavala and Robert Cepeda for their professional and loving care rendered to Don Allan Schuepbach, my husband. They and the staff treated me, friends and family members with greatest respect. They were so helpful in assisting us during this difficult time.

We would like to Thank Irma Wiley and all the Staff from Buck Ashcraft San Benito Funeral Home. They were compassionate, professional and kind through our greiving process. They were ready and willing to help with any questions we had. We were amazed with how fast they were able to put all the photos together as well as the the video with all of Dolores' loved ones. We would highly recommend this facility to anyone. They were a Blessing to us.

I just wanted to make sure and note the incredible service and assistance we received from San Benito Funeral Home and their staff throughout our extremely difficult bereavement time and final preparations for my brother David. Our tragedy and load was lightened by the care, consideration, and professionalism of Mr. Zavala, Mr. Cepeda & the entire staff. The new additions of the video memorial, the "can do-always saying yes to our requests attitude" was refreshing! There is no way that in our extreme loss and sadness could we have provided my brother with a final tribute that was just perfect for celebrating and honoring his life in the fashion that we did; if not for the exceptional assistance of the funeral home staff! Every detail was thought of, planned for, and executed professionally and beautifully! The picture/memory wall tribute upon entering the chapel took alot of work and was the topic of many comments we heard that week from our family and friends. Kudos to The Buck Ashcraft San Benito Funeral Home Directors and staff!
Sincerely,
The Cavazos/Lopez Families
Denise C. Lopez

On behalf of the Lopez and Cavazos families I would want to thank Mr. Jesus Zavala and Mr. Robert Cepeda for their outstanding work and compassion in caring for our brother, uncle and friend. Both Mr. Zavala and Mr. Cepeda showed compassion during an extremely difficult time. The service was outstanding and every detail was thought of and executed before we even had to ask. It is rare in this day and age to find the level of professionalism, attention to detail and care, but both of these gentlemen were outstanding. Thank you both for all you do and for serving the community.

Lopez and Cavazos Family

Dear Zeke, Edna and Staff,
As you know, a funeral home is not anyone’s first choice of places to visit…But, you and the staff made it very welcoming with your easy-going professionalism, your above and beyond personal touches and the servants’ hearts that you all do your jobs with. It was evident from the beginning that you were a staff that knew when to offer your assistance and how to give our family space to grieve or laugh. This pandemic has been a strange time for us all but you and your team did a great job of normalizing our time at your funeral home. Lastly, as a person who likes to “close the loop”, picking up our book with the detailed information on flower/plant arrangements, thank you cards and laminated prayer cards was icing on the cake. My daughter, sister and I nicknamed Zeke, “5-Star Zeke” but truly the whole team deserves a “Gazillion Stars”! All of you will always have a special place in our memories and we can’t thank you enough for the extraordinary service you provided. Take care.

Thank you for the careful attention you gave to our requests during this difficult time. I am pleased in the manner in which you conducted the funeral process for my brother and for the coordination with the staff at the Veterans Cemetery. Overall, I am happy with the wonderful service so deserving of Ecio. Thank you.

Everyone was very professional, kind, and attentive. Beautiful service!

Mr. Garza was very attentive, helpful, and professional!

Cris Garza did an amazing job! He was caring and compassionate every step of the way.

San Benito Funeral Home,   I just want to say thank you. Thank you so much for all of your help and guidance to my family on my grandson's funeral. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.  My grandson's father, mother, sister, wife, and his babies thank you too. We know that it's your job but you did great.   Sincerely, Eliseo's grandmother.

The throw blanket gift is so special, thank you so much! The staff was so friendly and helpful as well!

You all were very professional and I would recommend you to all.

Dear Mr. Garza,  My family and I want to thank you for outstanding professionalism in fulfilling our every wish for the burial of our loved one.  You took out so much of the "stress" in dealing with this difficult situation. Thank you, again.

Anyone that complains about the service they get at San Benito Funeral Home could not be pleased with anything that was done for them. My precious Bud was cared for by them and I am more than pleased. He was treated with respect and Cris and Steven were so very kind. I thank the mighty Lord for sending them my way when I was lost and had no idea what to do. Don't be afraid to trust your loved one with these people. I thank God so much for sending them to me at this time.

Cris & Steven,  We just wanted to thank you both again for the beautiful job you did in preparing my father, Buford Cunningham, for the afterlife. You both are very caring individuals who show compassion. That is so important to those who have lost loved ones. We felt you treated my father with dignity and as if he were one of your own and not "just another body" to lay to rest.  The beautiful tapestry blanket was an unbelievable surprise which we will treasure for the rest of our lives. It was admired immensely at the chapel service in McGregor, Texas. We were proud to let everyone know it was a gift from the San Benito Funeral Home Staff, and told them all how wonderful you both were in our time of sorry.  Thank you again so much! You are special people!

At our time of grief, your kindness, consideration, and understanding meant a lot to us. Your respect, service, and beautiful personality goes a long way at this time to the grieving family. We are very thankful for your good service. God bless each of you. Keep up your good work.   P.S. Thank you for the picture throw.

Cris, On behalf of our entire family, we would like to thank you for leading our mother's funeral arrangements. Your professionalism and knowledge perfectly balanced by your sensitivity and caring attention to every detail made the experience easier and this final tribute to her a very special memory. One that we will cherish forever.   Thank you.

Thank you for everything!

Cris, you and your staff did a great job! Many thanks.

Mr. Crispin Garza presented my mother in a glamorous way, which was highly commented upon. Thank you very much for your services at San Benito Funeral Home.

My mother had expressed to me many years ago that she wanted to use your services when "that time" came. You all are excellent, and I thank you for that!

On behalf of my entire family, I would like to thank you, Cris, and the San Benito Funeral Home staff, for all of your efforts and attention to detail during our time of need and grieving.   I personally felt as though we were the only family on the planet that you were dealing with at that time. I felt that we could count on you and your staff to guide us through every turn.  This was my first experience in dealing with the passing of a loved one. You all made it a very effortless process.  In addition, your attention to detail after the funeral is and has been head and shoulders above the call of what anyone could expect.   Thank you so much.

Excellent, and very satisfied.

Thank you for your time and I appreciate all you have done for Pat's funeral. Everyone was so impressed by the service and surroundings. Everything was beautifully done. Please let your staff know how much I appreciate them going above and beyond their duties. There really aren't enough words to express my gratitude for what you have done and how well you handled it. Thank you.

My family and I were very pleased with your services and for everything that was done . Thank you for your hospitality.

Thank you for the excellent service you provided for our father, Benito S. Lucio. Thank you again.
