“This mortuary handled both my parents’ funeral events, spaces 18 years apart. They have been consistently incredible through the years. This year, Adrian, Vicky and the mortuary staff were stellar in dealing with our very unique family situation. Adrian was there every step of the way, responsive and educating throughout the planning, and with heartfelt leadership for the different events of the funeral day.
I highly recommend this mortuary as I trust them in their expertise. They were professionally loving and kind to every member of the family, during the saddest times for our family and friends.“
“They've been great at making things happen and helping me make decisions easier. Thanks much.“
“Eric is wonderful. He is kind, patient and honest. I would recommend his business to anyone that requires cremation services. He listened to me talking about my grief.!!“
“I lost my mom unexpectedly and had no idea what to do. I have lived in the area my entire life and have driven by thousands of times. My first call was to Oak Park. From my first interaction to my last all the staff is amazing. They were kind, patience, and caring. Multiple interactions, I was crying and they explained the process with compassion. Losing a love one is hard and they made it a little easier.
They have so many options for ashes and made it easy to order items. I got a necklace with ashes inside. Items came quickly and again they made it a smooth process.
I hope I don't need to use the service again but if I do I will be going back to Oak Park!“
“The Passalacqua Funeral Chapel helped me with the passing of my Mom. The gentleman I worked with was Joe Talken. Joe was helpful, kind, understanding and helpful every step of the way. He treats the passing of your loved one, like it's one of his own. One example: Joe helped me download hundreds of photos I had scanned into a slideshow on his day off. Their TV set up would not accept my thumb drive. Joe sat with me on a Sunday for 3 hours to download my presentation. He is truly a wonderful guy.Joe Talken helped me in many many ways throughout THE most difficult time in my life. Use the Passalacqua Funeral Chapel...and ask for Joe.“
“There is no easy way to tell a loved one goodbye, no matter the age, illness or cause of death. Pittsburg Funeral Chapel does a great job at making you feel comfortable and at ease through the process of putting your loved one to eternal sleep in their human body.
The pricing is very reasonable compared to other locations. They explain very thing and call you if anything else is needed. They work with you with what you need or want to be done (obviously in realistic manner). Everyone that works there is polite and treats you like family.
What I loved most is my father looked as if he was sleeping, he didn’t look unusual or overly done on the make up, he looked peaceful in the coffin. It is hard to find someone that can make your loved one look similar to their living form after death but they can and will here.
Highly recommend this place if you’re ever in a need of a good make over or a great place to rest for eternity!“
“This is a place of comfort and peace of mind for families of love one's who passed away. Their very valuable service for fraction of a cost from other memorial service around the area is what every family needs specially in the times of sorrow. You will have a peace of mind that they will help you from beginning to end. Their simplicity and respectful service suits everyone's needs. Thank you very much to Marcie and Eric: Alta Vista staff, and Dan Scales Memorial Service (chapel) staff (Brenda, 2 more wonderful ladies, and their pastor) in Pittsburgh are wonderful. May God continue to bless you and your good heart!“
“Everyone we dealt with here was so helpful and kind. Philip Schaffer explained all the details and walked us patiently through it all step by step so that we never felt like we were lost in such a difficult situation. The final viewing and burial service was so well put together. I recommend them highly.“
“Hannah and her staff were kind, thoughtful and empathetic during a very difficult time; also timely and professional with communication throughout the process.“
