Coming up on the 5 year mark of my Dad's services there. Unlike many, Dad wasn't local anymore, but had entrusted a member of the Festa family, that shared my father's line of work, to "do right" by him.
Doing right entailed a partner funeral home on my side of the state transferring Dad's body somewhere on the Garden State Parkway, then getting his body to Totowa for the services.
There's a reason people choose Festa in their final time. Those who had roots or careers of note go there, as it's known as not only a landmark, but just *where you go*.

Very caring and said some prayers at the gravesite because I had elected not to have a priest. I see some bad reviews here but in my experience I would not hesitate to use them. They were very caring and very responsive to my needs.The reason I used them was one of my cousins caregivers recommended them. She has been a hospice care... read full review
