``Llano Cemetery has been a special place for our family for over 70 years. My little brother, Eddie came first, then my mom's mother, Rosie, then my Daddy's dad, Ed Fields, then Daddy's mother, Mary Belle Fields, and lastly, my husband, Jim. Jim's parents, Cora and J.G. McClintock are also buried in the same section - just east of our plot. So even though it was not easy for us to come back to Amarillo from Altus, OK., it was what we wanted to do. Thank you for helping. I want to thank Ruth Williams, who was a great help in ordering a double marker for my husband, who had just died, - and myself - in due time. I spoke to her several times on the telephone and we also communicated by mail to be sure we got it right.``
Nancy McClintock

“Llano did an excellent job on my mother’s funeral. They worked her funeral during these hard times. Very pleased. Thanks Llano.”
Mindy Wilson - November 2020
``The whole experience was less difficult because of the Llano Staff being so helpful. The day of the funeral the maintenance crew was extremely helpful and courteous. We couldn't get out of the car because of the mud and water and not only did they help us back into the car after the funeral, they also let my daughter watch her mom being buried and then place a rose into the grave to say 'Good-bye, mom'. Thank you.”
Harry J. Gaffney
“I arranged the service by phone with Ruth Williams help. She did everything I asked and made it all happen and I appreciate that immensely. I know how nice Llano is — my grandparents, Parents are there, and now my brother. Thanks again to Ruth.”
James Norman - November 2020
``I chose Llano Cemetery because the resting place is always neat and clean. It is locally owned, and I think as a citizen of Amarillo since 1960 and also my husband being a businessman support of our local facilities is important. That is also why I chose Boxwell Brothers Funeral Home.``
Marlene Simpson
“Unfortunately, I have had two experiences with Llano Cemetery in the last year — with the loss of my mother in Dec. 2019, and the loss of my husband of 46 years in Nov. 2020. In both cases, Lysa DeSoto assisted me with the arrangements. I found her to be a wonderful person, very compassionate, kind, helpful and professional.”
Pamela Gonce - November 2020
``Our experience with Llano has been nothing but professional and pleasant. We appreciate the respect and dignity given our family at a difficult time.``
Vincent Moss - December 2020
``Ruth Williams has been extremely helpful from the first time my husband and I met her a few years ago. At my husband's funeral, she went out of her way to ask a rowdy crowd to quiet down during his service. My family truly appreciated the extra effort she took so that we could respectfully take part in our loved one's service. Ruth has truly been a pleasure to work with.``
Mrs. James V. Gonzales - December 2020
``My experience at Llano Cemetery was exceptional. Ashley was professional, compassionate, and very understanding. She went above and beyond. She is amazing. Because of her excellent service, my family and I were able to easily navigate through this experience. Thank you Ashley Zirger.``
