There are no microwaved meals at Kade's Scratch Kitchen, 15 Main St., Le Roy.

All meals are made to order. They're not reheated entrees. They're not made in a commercial kitchen in another state.

There isn't even a microwave in the kitchen. The only microwave is behind the dining counter. 

"We use it to heat brownies," said co-owner Beth Burger. "That is the only reason we have it." 

Owners of H.E. Turner & Co., Inc. Funeral Home already knew they were committed to the business and taking care of customers, and being named as a Selected independent Funeral Homes member has solidified their belief that “we don’t just talk the talk, we walk the walk,” co-owner Steven Johnson says.

While the honor may seem to place a narrow focus on the world of morticians and their industry, this is something that lets all prospective customers know who they can trust, Johnson said.

“I think why it's important to them is that our invitation to join Selected and Independent, and it truly is by invitation only sort of association, our membership can give the community that we serve, the families that we serve, the confidence that we are truly a cut above your average everyday run-of-the-mill funeral home,” Johnson said during an interview with The Batavian Friday.
