“Tom DiCarlo and his staff were great. They were incredibly respectful and ensured all of my family’s wishes were honored. We truly appreciated their professionalism and care during such a difficult time.“
“The heartfelt service unique to a family-run business and the willingness to accommodate any request from the bereaved family were truly wonderful. The progression, background music, altar setup, personal makeup, and the Buddhist monk’s service—all were carried out just as we envisioned for the funeral and burial. I believe my late wife would have been pleased as well. Thank you very much.“
“Pat Sr. and Pat Jr. are the best. From the moment our mother passed away at Calvary hospital until the day after the funeral they were there for us.
The moment our mother passed away my wife call Pleasant Manor asking if they could come to the Bronx to pick her up so she would not have to go to the morgue. Pat Sr. was there within the hour.
My wife called Pleasant Manor on the drive home and Pat Jr. said come by once you get your thoughts together. My wife, SIL and BIL arrived that afternoon and Pat Jr. made them feel so comfortable. They were in and out in no time with nothing to worry about.
The wake was beautiful. Pat Jr. did an amazing job on my MIL. The video slide show was perfect. I gave him a flash drive with over 175 pictures and his program created a slide show. I brought him four flash drives the morning of the funeral and he had the slide show download on all four drives before we left for the church.
The next day we sent a text to Pat Jr. asking for Thank You cards. He said they would be ready by 9am. We arrived at 9am just before another funeral was about to begin. Pat Sr. waived us in and said Pat Jr. had the cards. We drove up to the home and Pat Jr. came out and handed us the cards.
Later that week we were back at the home for another wake. Pat Jr. was a gem. We cannot say enough about this family. They are amazing and they've earned all our future business. Let's just pray that is later rather than sooner. LOL“
“Ed Fox and his staff were friendly, compassionate and professional from start to finish. Ed's heartfelt guidance and sincere expressions of sympathy was genuinely appreciated. I never felt rushed, prodded, or like it was business as usual. All the logistical items were clear, and Ed took the time to explain everything in detail. Thank you for providing a beautiful funeral service for my dear mother. Mom would have enjoyed meeting you....and she would have liked you, too.“
“Jackie McQuade is thorough and excellent at getting the job done. She is there to answer any questions and always has the best solutions. her staff is also very welcoming and compassionate.“
“During our time of grief, planning a funeral for a loved one is extremely difficult. My mother pre-planned her funeral with Lee's Funeral Home and the one thing I learned from Lee's Funeral Home is never judge a book by its cover. The waiting room is outdated but the service is impeccable, honest, warm, comforting and calming. Jennifer took us through every step, showed us what my Mother had chosen, asked if we wanted to change anything...we didn't. A staff member came in and asked us questions about Mommy, which made us remember the little things and we were presented with a tapestry of her life that truly brought a smile to my face. Lee's took great care with Mommy, gave her dignity every step of the way...she looked peaceful and beautiful. Lee's was also able to provide some options for a caterer in the area for the repast. They put together a bag at the end of the service with the cards from the flower, the sign in book, the additional programs and the cards, and the tapestry. We didn't need to go look for anything or gather stuff, they had thought of everything!!! I'm not sure I have completely conveyed how great Lee's Funeral home is but I am giving it my best effort. I thank them for taking care of my mom and in turn taking care of the family. If the star scale went to 1000, that is what I would give them.“
“This is not a review I ever wanted to write, but here we are. My wonderful mother passed away unexpectedly in August. Balsamo Funeral Home has always handled all of my extended families arrangements, so it was only natural we would use them for my mom. The service, dedication and compassion we received, was exceptional! Every detail, everything we needed, everything we requested was handled with the highest quality. We requested my mother to look as natural as possible since she never, ever wore makeup or had her nails done. They did such a beautiful job. It's not an easy request to fulfill because makeup is necessary when dealing with someone who has passed. The way they ushered my mother into the church was also nicely done. They all work in unison and made everything look so seamless. Again, this is not something I ever imagined I would write a review for, but it needed to be said. Their hard work needed to be recognized! Thank you to the entire staff for helping us through the most difficult thing I have ever experienced, the loss of my loving mother. I mean this in the nicest way possible, I hope I don't need your services anytime soon!!!“
“A very class act, super professional. Six years ago within the span of six months both of my parents passed away and Ferenga was amazing. This week my wife had an unexpected loss out in Suffolk County. Not knowing anything about the funeral homes in that area, she called Ferenga and they actually called her back with a recommendation.“
“Tatyana and Matthew provided professional and caring service for my mother. They arranged for her to be flown from Florida to NY. They made sure our family's wishes were carried out. The rooms are lovely, modern and bright. Everything was explained and itemized for us so there were no surprises. They were there every step of the way and believe me it matters when a family is grieving.“
“Even during our sad times paying respect to my mother in law, the staff here proved themselves to be very kind, professional and truely exceptional.“
“Every interaction we, as a family, have had with the Ballard-Durand Funeral Home in preparation of the funeral service and burial our beloved family member was carried out exactly as we had envisioned. They made a stressful event as seamless as possible with the utmost professionalism and sensitivity. We remain grateful to them for the service they provided to our family.“
“I can’t say enough about how amazing Dodge-Thomas Funeral Home was in our hour of grief over the loss of our mother (mother in law) Angiolina Stanco. From the moment we called them, and throughout the entire funeral and cemetery arrangements, they took care of everything! They were there every step of the way and ALWAYS available to answer any questions or concerns. From the owner/father Guy to his daughter, Jeanine and her husband Blake, they gave us peace of mind and when we needed it the most. Thank you, again, for all you did and God Bless!??
From the Stanco Family“
“Like it or not, everyone has to face the mortality of a loved one at sometime.Yesterday we laid our Mom to rest. I cannot say enough good things about Flynn Memorial Home on Central Ave in Yonkers. Jim, Mike and the rest of the staff were all wonderful. Their compassion and professionalism made a difficult situation for us managable. My Mom looked beautiful. It was obvious Mom was treated with care and love. Everything went so smoothly from start to finish.We knew some of the procedures as we lost our Dad almost 2 years ago. The way we were assisted back then made our choice of a Memorial Home a very easy decision. There was no question we were going back to Flynn. The men and women at Flynn went above and beyond to help us see our parents will Rest in Peace.We highly recommend Flynn Memorial Home.Margie Duvall Schweizer“
“The staff at Coxe and Graziano is compassionate, caring, professional and wonderful. Growing up in Mamaroneck, over the years, I've attended a number of services at Coxe and Graziano - but this was the first time I needed to arrange services like this for a family member and I certainly didn't know what to ask or expect. I needn't have worried. Jen and Candace were very helpful and took care of everything. Literally everything. At the service, the gentlemen working that evening were kind and attentive to any needs. The only thing left to say is, Thank you.“
“My family member was entrusted to New Rochelle Funeral Home, when I saw her on the day of the funeral, I was amazed at how beautiful she looked. Bigger is not always better and Peter has the best price in town, trust me on that I have done my research. Do not judge this place based on looks, just trust the process and Peter will deliver. I was very happy that all the family members felt the same. He answers you when you call and that is considered great customer service. Our funeral was on November 4, 2023. Thank you Peter! Rosalee T.“
“Sisto Funeral Home they made my heart at peace. They took excellent care of my Brother Jimmy Carrion arrangements. He look absolutely Handsome everything was well arranged and very attentive to all your needs. I want to thank Ralph, John and Tom thank you for everything .“
“We recently visited to purchase a family stone. We worked with Ray who is extremely professional and knowledgeable. He helped guide us and help us to pick the perfect stone and style for our loved one. We have looked at multiple memorial places, and Ray was by far the most knowledgeable person we have encountered. He really made this that experience much easier for us and we left a very satisfied.“
“My parents have a family plot there. I love visiting and sitting with my sisters, enjoying the serenity of the location when I visit. It is a beautiful cemetery.“

“Owners and staff are incredibly caring and thoughtful. Thank you for making a very difficult day as comfortable as possible.“
“Totally professional care from beginning to end. No salesmanship. Genuine concern for my mother. Every detail was covered and there were no glitches or last minute problems.

“Joe and his team are always there to help you though a tough time. so caring and wonderful.“
“I've had to unfortunately say goodbye to family members over the last few years. McGrath, always treated us like we were family. I highly recommend them to everyone.❤“
“Today we laid my Grandmother to rest thanks to Dormi's. The preparation and venue were beautiful, and my Grandmother looked beautiful and dignified. Chris is an absolute class act and even gave me a ride to the church when there was a miscommunication and a car didn't show up. A wonderful, compassionate and kind staff. They will go out of their way for you and make sure your loved one is taken care of. I cannot thank Chris and his staff enough. Wonderful, kind and professional people.“
“John handled my husband's arrangements with kindness and efficiency. I didn't have to worry about anything he took care of it all.“
