“Losing a loved one is never the right time to write a review, but Hamden Funeral Home, along with Peter and Hillary, truly deserve recognition. After unexpectedly losing our mother, I reached out to Hillary to explain our family's wishes. She made sure I was able to meet with Peter the same day. Even before our meeting, she began working on arrangements to fit our timeline. When I met Peter, I immediately realized he was there for us, ready to do everything he could to make this difficult process as smooth as possible. He guided us through each step with both efficiency and, most importantly, compassion. Peter is the kind of person you meet and instantly recognize as a genuinely kind-hearted soul. I could go on about how wonderful he was, but at a time when life feels overwhelming and full of emotion, the team at Hamden Funeral Home will not add to that burden. Instead, they will take care of everything so you can focus on grieving and being with your family. My family and I can not thank Peter and his team enough for being so great.“

“The last thing any family needs while grieving a loved one is chaos. I was able to fully trust and rely on Curvin K. Council Funeral Home with the care of my brother, thanks to their professionalism, clear communication, and the genuine respect they showed my family and me.

At the end of the day, quality matters most to me—and their service is truly top tier. I highly recommend this funeral home. Even after the service, I can call and still be met with kindness and concern, always greeted with, “How are you doing?” I’ve never felt rushed, and I’ve felt valued every step of the way during this process.

My sincerest gratitude and thanks to Mr. Curvin and his entire team! ???❤️“

“We are incredibly grateful to Jimmy for the exceptional care and compassion he showed our family during my father-in-law Dick’s funeral.

From the moment we arrived, it was clear how thoughtful, organized, and attentive he is. During an emotional and overwhelming time, Jimmy handled every detail with calm professionalism and genuine kindness. Because of him, we were able to focus on honoring Dick and being present with our family, without worrying about logistics, timing, or what came next. That peace of mind is truly priceless.

His guidance and quiet leadership made a very difficult day feel manageable and meaningful. Everything was handled with dignity, respect, and heart, and I know Dick would have been proud of how beautifully it all came together. That brings us real comfort.

The work Jimmy does matters deeply. While families may not remember every detail, they always remember how they were made to feel. We felt supported every step of the way. We are sincerely thankful for his care and highly recommend him to anyone needing compassionate, professional support during an incredibly vulnerable time.“

“I am an attorney in town at Burns Thomas, LLC. I have had a number of dealings with Buckmiller, Thurston and Mengacci over many years. They have always provided my clients and their loved ones the best possible service. They are professional and very responsive.Most recently, I had a client sitting in my office and we needed a copy of a document from the funeral home. I thought I would call and request it expecting it would take a few days to get the document back to me. I called and Jim Mengacci answered the phone and emailed me the document within 5 minutes. I could not have been more pleased with the level of service.I recommend Buckmiller, Thurston and Mengacci to my clients and encourage others to contact them regularly.“
