“Kathy Kane and the staff at Keohane FH provided caring service in my time of need upon the death of my brother Robert. People don’t realize when making funeral arrangements a series of decisions must be made within a short period of time. Our arrangements were challenging since the visitation was in Quincy, the funeral mass was in East Boston and the burial was in Medford. Kathy and staff performed well and I will always remember their compassion in dealing with me and my family. Thanks for the compassion and kindness provided by Kathy and her staff.

“The staff at Peck Funeral Home were all compassionate and helpful during a difficult time when we were unfamiliar with the process. They helped us at each step of a sad time and I would recommend them to anyone who is unfortunately in a similar situation.“
“I visited Deware Funeral Home twice and first met with Joseph to draft an initial plan for funeral pre-arrangements, and then with Sara and Dan in order to finalize and purchase said funeral pre-arrangements. I had no prior experience making any type of funeral arrangements but I feel that I made an excellent choice in going with Deware. I chose to do these pre-arrangements in order to hopefully lessen the burden and stress levels when the time comes for perhaps myself and those who follow me. All of these individuals at Deware listened to my needs and wishes and exhibited the utmost in professionalism and knowledge to guide me thru the process and to provide me with the best plan based on those needs. I never felt pressured to opt for features beyond what I felt were needed; rather, I felt that they just focused on making me a fully satisfied customer. They certainly succeded in that endeavor.“
“Top notch. They handled all my mother’s services and did an amazing job. There was a lot of people there for 4 to 8pm but they managed it well. Anne is very sweet and easy to talk to and do business with and the rest of the staff is as well. Use them. You won’t be sorry. They make a tough time a lot easier to deal with.“
“Very much appreciated all the concerns and help that Corrine was very helpful with at the most difficult time in my life with losing my mom and my best friend again much thanks to all

“Thank you Waitt funeral home for your extraordinary patience and kindness in handling matters for my Dad. Stephanie was so compassionate. All the staff were just wonderful !!!“
“Wonderful and caring staff. Frank Maggiore couldn’t have done a better job helping us through a very sad time.“
“We recently lost our dad of 92 years. We were in touch with Michelle Lydon who worked with us on all of the details to make planning his arrangements so easy. Due to the size of our family and guests anticipated, Michelle recommended we hold the wake at the Tirrell Room in Quincy, and it was the perfect suggestion for our needs. Michelle and her staff made certain the hall would present perfectly for all of the people that came to show their respect. She helped us coordinate transportation for the day of the funeral to keep us all together from the Funeral home to the Church, to the National Cemetery and finally to the luncheon. Everyone from Hamel-Lydon Chapel was exceptional in taking care of our dad and of our family and guests. We can’t say enough how grateful we are that we had Hamel-Lydon along to help us in this journey. Thank you for everything you did. Michelle, he would give you an A++ for how well you did.“
“Reasonable price outstanding service .Drew and the whole staff were phenomenal very understanding and polite. Highly recommended!! Rosana and family.“
“I cannot say enough good things about Sweeney Brothers and, specifically, Richard T. Sweeney, III. My family has used Sweeney Brothers for multiple funerals across multiple generations.
Especially during difficult times, you want someone who is knowledgeable, compassionate and out to help you provide the services and experience for your loved one and family. Sweeney Brothers was all that and more.
Customer service seems to be a lost art, especially in these post-COVID times, but Sweeney Brothers provided, by far and away, the best customer service I have received in the last 4 years (perhaps the last 40 years!)—it was exceptional. They are a business, and need to be paid for the service they provide, but I never felt any pressure to purchase something that I didn’t want. Options/suggestions/recommendations? Yes (and were appreciated since I didn’t know what to do). Pressure? No.
Emails and phone calls were responded to promptly—in fact, at one point I had to tell Richard to stop getting back to me and to enjoy his SUNDAY! He not only steered me through the entire process, including legal and regulatory requirements for body identification, cremation, internment but volunteered to make arrangements with the cemetery and church for services so that I wouldn’t have to.
Their history and deep ties within the industry and community allows them to make recommendations and connections that would be hard to match. They know what they are doing and do it exceptionally well. If there were 6 stars, I would easily give them and would likely be asking for a seventh.“
“Fred and Larry were really helpful in planning my Mom's funeral services. They paid attention to the details and the day of the services went so smoothly - I was grateful for their expertise and grace.“
“When needing to make plans for a loved one who has passed away, you can make no better decision than asking McNamara-Sparrell to make the arrangements for your family. The staff, especially the owner, at McNamara-Sparrell are incredibly kind, knowledgeable and helpful. And even when you might be feeling completely overwhelmed with emotion, Brendan and his staff calmly walk you thru the planning so you have peace of mind that you have made all the right decisions. I have recently had to hold funeral services for both my parents, once in the height of Covid and the other very unexpectedly. Brendan helped me down to the smallest detail and with the utmost professionalism. You can clearly see the pride he takes in carrying on his family’s business in caring for others. And if you should need to host a wake, McNamara-Sparrell has meticulously cared for their beautiful historical building that offers that element of warmth and comfort when you will unexpectedly find you will need it most. My family and I are forever grateful for Brendan and the staff at McNamara-Sparrell.“
“This was a GREAT first date, I took Craig to see his grandmother and he was so happy he threw up and cried.(I dug up her“
“Very beautiful old cemetery at any season! Well taken care of! Love coming here for walks!“
“We recently had the difficult task of arranging my father's funeral service. Dolan Funeral Homes and Cremation Services provided exceptional service during this challenging time. From the very beginning, Jed and his team were excellent, showing a level of kindness, consideration, and patience that truly made a difference. They handled every detail with the utmost care and professionalism, ensuring that everything went smoothly and respectfully. Their compassion and support were deeply appreciated by our entire family. We are so grateful for and impressed by their dedication, and highly recommend Dolan to anyone in need of funeral services.“
“The directors were very helpful and attentive. Overall, it is very spacious and clean. I don’t regret choosing the funeral home. I gave them 4 instead of 5 because there is room for improvement. First, the staff during calling hours did not have answers to some of our questions. When I asked him for more tissue boxes he said he will get one but they are running short on tissue paper. That is one supply that you should never tell someone you are running low on. I would have liked if all the prayer cards were laminated without me requesting it after the service. Overall, it’s a good funeral home.“
“Everything was very nicely done. Is there more parking available, like an adjacent lot?“
“Lucid Clancy Funeral Home in Weymouth, MA, provided exceptional service to my family during the funeral arrangements for my late sister. From the moment we contacted them, they were compassionate, professional, and attentive to our every need. Jim the funeral director here has been doing this for decades and he was the consummate professional throughout.Jim took the time to understand my sister's life and personality, and he worked with my wife’s husband to help us to plan a funeral that was truly a beautiful celebration of her life. He was also accommodating of our budget, our religious beliefs and clearly has great working relationships with the local churches.The funeral itself was beautifully conducted, and the staff at Lucid Clancy was there every step of the way to support us. They were respectful of our grief, and they made sure that everything ran smoothly.I am so grateful to Lucid Clancy Funeral Home for the care and compassion they showed to my family during this difficult time. They helped us to say goodbye to my sister in a way that was both dignified and meaningful.I would highly recommend Lucid Clancy Funeral Home to anyone who is looking for a funeral home that will provide exceptional care and service.“
“We had the pleasure of working with Maggie at the Hanover location of Sullivan Funeral Homes for the passing of my Father. Maggie was extremely accommodating, very kind and delivered a beautiful ceremony.I would highly recommend working with Maggie in your time of need.“
“I am the grandson of Richard Doherty. Dan helped me and my family so much. Very professional and amazing!“
