Our staff is courteous and understanding. Our facilities are comfortable and immaculate. Our services are handled with dignity and respect. If you are not completely satisfied with any of our services or facility offerings, we will reduce or eliminate the charge. We are the only funeral home in the area to offer this guarantee.
Funeral and Cremation costs can be very confusing. Often times other funeral & cremation providers will quote what seems like a low price, but actually they do not give you the complete costs and there will be hidden add on charges after you have chosen to utilize their services. We have made it easier ...
My deepest sympathies to Milt’s wife Sharon, and Milt’s family. I will always cherish my conversations with Milt and my friendship with him. I will miss him and seeing him at events. RIP old Friend.

My thoughts and prayers to the Schornack family. I always enjoyed seeing him at Pontiac events as he would talk Pontiac with anyone. I remember him giving my brother his personal cell phone number if he had any questions regarding a GTO he was restoring. Several years later I called Milt while rebuilding my 400 in my 68 GTO and asking about the placement of the water pump plates. Milt walked me through them on the phone. I’ll never forget that…. Rest In Peace Milt….. Mr Pontiac to me!!
Our thoughts and prayers to the Schornack Family. Milt was a great friend to us and we always enjoyed his company. He made us proud when we would see him wearing the black/gray racing shirt we made special for Mr. Royal Pontiac. He will be deeply missed. He was a true Legend.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family now and always. I always enjoyed seeing, talking and getting advice from this legend at the Pontiac Nationals on Norwalk, Ohio. He will be greatly missed by all the hearts he touched with his knowledge.
I heard if Milt’s passing yesterday, on 11-24-20. I have tears in my eyes and sorrow in my heart, as I looked forward to seeing him at the 2020 GTOAA Nationals. He is a Pontiac hero, and a wealth of knowledge. He lived a long life and God bless his spirit for ever.

Our deepest sympathies, your family is in our prayers Milt was such a great guy. I’m privileged to have met him
I met Mr. Schornack when I was dating his niece, Gail, in 1974. I think he lived near 16 mile rd. in Mt. Clemens. I remember going to Milan Drag Strip with him and Gail where he raced his Firebird. I remember hanging out in the ‘pits’. His brother, Hillary (Gail’s dad) was a great man.
