“I've served Catholic Churches all over the country and even in Europe, and I've never worked with a funeral home which understands the Catholic Faith better or the dynamics of a Catholic Funeral more than the team at Caldwell Parrish. They work closely with both the local priest and the family and friends of the deceased to make sure the wishes of their loved one are carried out and the Church's faith in the Resurrection are front and center. For the staff at Caldwell Parrish, tending to your loved one is not a job; it's an expression of their Catholic faith and a service, a ministry they offer to the Church in Des Moines.”

 – Father PJ McManus, Son of Virgene McManus
