“On March 6th, 2024 my mother passed away. I was lost. I had never been responsible for making funeral arrangements. I asked my daughter and her mother-in-law to help me. I had been to many funerals in my life, but I was not impressed with the funeral services in the Bronx. Not for my Mom. We went online. I wanted to patronize a black-owned funeral business. We came across Williams Funeral Home, and based on the name, we assumed it was black-owned. It wasn’t. But thankfully we sat with the staff and discussed the process. The staff members were very informative, very compassionate, and truly professional. Prices were very reasonable. The facility was clean and neat. The floral arrangements that we purchased through the funeral home were absolutely beautiful.
While we were making arrangements for my mom, I received a call that my cousin passed away. Same day. Williams Funeral Home listened to our wishes, respected our spiritual background, and put together two remarkable funeral services, one on Saturday and the other on Sunday. The beautiful services took the sting out of such a sad occasion. I will recommend William’s Funeral Home to anyone who asks. It is definitely the place now for my family. And my wife and kids know where to go when my number is up. I won’t name names, because every staff member would receive a 10 out of 10 review from me. Thank you to the staff, the facility, the parking, the amazing flowers, the video display, and all of the accommodations at Williams Funeral Home.“

“Completely satisfied with the process of preplanning my funeral wishes. Sabrina was absolutely lovely and helped so much in go over all the steps, pros and cons and benefits I was entitled to as a Veteran. Highly recommend their services.“

“From the bottom of my heart I want to thank the Ruggiero family and staff for the amazing support and compassionate care during the most difficult time. Michelle was by my side at the cemetery, empathetic and kind and at the same time very efficient and professional. She helped me so much.
Everything at the facility was beautifully organized, the video and the flowers, bright and welcoming.
Even years later, Andrew, Eileen, Michelle, were very helpful with other matters. I cannot say enough about the Ruggiero family and their expertise and commitment, sensitivity and respect that was afforded to me and my family. This is the best place and the best people to help at the hardest times.
Thank you so much.“

“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.“

“Our experience with the Eden Memorial Staff, from the Pre-Needs Planning through the Funeral, was excellent. They provided wonderful guidance and were always available. They were kind, professional and responsive to all of our requests. The Cantor they recommended was exceptional. We could not be more satisfied with Eden Memorial. Scott L“

“I recently purchased a headstone for my late mother from Shah Stone, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. Rusell was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, offering me a great price and ensuring that every detail was just right. The craftsmanship and quality of the headstone are outstanding, and it truly honors my mother's memory beautifully. The service was compassionate and professional, which made a difficult time much easier. I highly recommend Shah Stone for anyone in need of this service. Thank you, Rusell, for making this experience a little easier with your kindness and dedication.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Levy & Delany provides high level service. Ms. Lynn Whiting, Funeral Director, was so helpful to both me and my family in making the final arrangements for my wife. She was compassionate, kind, and very helpful that I deeply appreciated. Lynn’s team was also extremely professional and respectful. She made my wife’s homegoing services a truly beautiful event. I am so thankful to have used her services.“

“Mr. Stellato and his staff are compassionate, kind, supportive, and extremely professional. My father’s service was lovely, and I am forever grateful!!!!!!!“

“I cannot say enough about how they eased my pain. It was all handled so well and so comforting“

“I have worked with them several times, one when Leon was handling the business. But, Miguel was very helpful and helped me through the process. This place really made the whole ordeal less stressful and looked out for my best interest. Thank you.“

“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!!!“

“When you are in the depths of your mourning and grief when your life partner, your husband, of over 37 1/2 years, dies, there is no better care and comfort than from Gregory Katz at Plaza Jewish Community Chapel. Understanding, caring, and embracing of your difficult time, his handling of every detail was extraordinary. I always felt emotionally cradled by their great staff and completely pleased with the planning of all of the traditional Jewish rituals. The gravesite at Ceder Park Cemetery was a beautiful and meaningful burial. I am so very grateful for all of the caring attention from this incredible gift to the Jewish Community.“

“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.“
