Funeral Services And Cemeteries near Roxbury

“When I lost my older brother, my family and I didn't know what to do or who to call. What made it more difficult is that he was in California when he passed unexpectedly. Not only did we have to cope with his untimely death, but had no idea what to do to bring him home. Thankfully, through contacts, we found Julia. She and Johnson Funeral Home were amazing. She was patient, understanding, helpful, caring and efficient in handling all the arrangements in bringing my brother home from San Francisco and helping us with so much more. Yes, the place is dated which may put some people off. And although this was 10 years ago we appreciate everything she and Johnson FH did for my brother and my family which is why we are back now to handle arrangements for the passing of our mother.“

“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.

We are so grateful to have gained a friend in this process and we would like to extend our help for anything that you should need.

“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.“

“Their kindness, respect and level of professionalism is very comforting. God bless the Rogers Funeral Home.“

“I engaged the Gormley Funeral Home to handle the wake and cremation of my partner of 42 years. They did a wonderful job; they were very sensitive to my feelings; they went out of their way to offer help beyond their immediate services; they were supportive at a mind numbing time. I recommend Gormley without hesitation.“

“Joel and the entire staff were just incredible when my husband passed away early November. Their kindness and professionalism through such a horrific experience, made things much easier to deal with. There really are no words to fully express our thankfulness. Thankfully, my brother-in-law had recommended having the services there and everything was just perfect. It was so comforting to know that we were in such good hands, as was my husband from the very start.“

“I have heard nothing but good things about Joyce Funeral Home. All the families that used Joyce FH have been very pleased with the service they provide.“

“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.“

“Anthony and his team are amazing. They are kind and compassionate, and go above and beyond to help. This is the second time we have sought Anthony's services. This time, we had a number of issues piled onto an already unbearable situation and they guided myself and my family through the entire ordeal. They are extremely understanding and the most patient gentlemen. If you find yourself in one of these tragic situations (God Forbid) please allow them to take care of you and your loved one as that is exactly what they will do.“

“Under the strangest circumstances, Bob made everything work. We went from having a very intense probate matter to a smooth, compassion and respectful service. Bob went above and beyond to ensure we had a final goodbye for our dad in the most dignified way. Although, we didn’t have the corps at the memorial, he made sure we were able to overcome and take part in my dad’s memorial. I highly recommend working with him because he was sympathetic towards our situation, his compassionate approach made it work. Bob and his crew was extremely professional.“

“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
