Description
In writing about its history, a company may find it tempting to create its own “philosophy” in line with popular trends or current values. In our case, however, it was spelled out years ago by our founder, Porter Loring, Sr. The year was 1918. World War I had just ended. Troops were returning from Europe, and so were casualties for burial in hometowns. The upheaval of the times also spread one of the deadliest influenza epidemics in history. For a military town like San Antonio, and for the funeral homes serving the area, the situation posed a serious challenge. It was against this backdrop that Porter Sr. decided the time was right to introduce a new type of mortuary.

Roshell is a terrible funeral director. She is rude and condescending. My mother has just passed and I called the other day to get some information. Thanks to Roshell’s lack of compassion we took our business elsewhere. If this is how everyone gets treated I’m surprised your still in business.

Shannon Sturms one of the directors was very professional and compassionate along with the other staff and made the whole process simple. Can’t thank them enough for all they did to ease our minds knowing that they were there to handle anything that came up or if we had questions about the arrangements. Not only did they take care of my moms funeral they also took care of my dad’s with the same compassion and professionalism. If you’re looking for a place for loved ones, I highly recommend this place. Thanks again Shannon for your help, we really appreciate it.

My precious mother went to be with the Lord on October 30, 2021, and we chose Porter Loring to help with her funeral arrangements. Crystal Grazulis was the most compassionate and patient person with me and my sisters during this most difficult time in our lives. She guided us through the whole process and was even there for us at the funeral -- not to mention the occasional phone call to check up on us. From everyone beginning with the ladies that came to our home to receive our mother, to Crystal, to Kelsey, to Nina, Daniel, and the driver of the hearse, we could not have felt more respected and cared for. My family will forever be thankful and grateful for your support, care, and professionalism. It's such a blessing that we chose Porter Loring on McCullough.

Front desk lady has a lack of empathy.. we were only trying to honor our loved one who is no longer with us. There’s a way to finesse conversations and then there’s just being mean. She was just mean.

We are so greatfull to the staff of Porter Loring for the excellent care they took of our daughter. Every one there was kind and compassionate as they ensured that her funeral was dignified and peaceful. The tenderness and care went beyond a business; we felt as if they were caring for a cherished member of their own family.
