“The staff are PHENOMENAL! Ms Morgan and Mr Jordan made me feel like family! They were attentive to details. They took one of the most painful things to happen to me, the loss of my son and did everything to make it easier. The service was flawless! They made suggestions that I didn't even think about. I appreciated they only have one service at a time. They added extras like a memory box next to the guest book, personalized water bottles and a beautiful tapestry! I could go on about this beautiful place. I'll end by saying if you lose a loved one, call them. You won't regret it!“

“I honestly cannot say any more great things about Colonial. We just had our mom’s services here. Dave was so incredible and compassionate. And oh my gosh I am so sorry because I cannot remember the beautiful woman in the office that I have hugged many times and was so compassionate. (I am so sorry my mind has not been anywhere near normal but you are amazing). I am so thankful we had Colonial to help us thru this extremely hard time. I cannot say enough about you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart“

“Mike and his team have done a fantastic job with their services. I really appreciated that during the initial meeting he didn’t try to upsell us on stuff (casket, flowers, etc.). Obviously this was a difficult time for my family and he was extremely helpful navigating everything.

The way the rooms are set up are great for traditional sitting on one side and another section with round tables that allow people to talk and visit. They also have two sets of fridges/cabinets in the kitchen, as there was another service the same day, and it made it easy to separate whose family brought what. The thank yous were easy with the computer check in process so we didn’t have to hand write all the addresses for thank you cards.

For the actual service, they were very organized for the procession and directing everyone on where to go. I have unfortunately been to a fair number of funerals, and most of the time the procession from the funeral home to the church/cemetery can get very confusing, but Mike and his team made everything incredibly smooth.

I very much appreciate everything Mike and the Kerry Funeral Home team has done to make this difficult process as easy as possible!“

“They were very helpful during my sorrow time and I love the quality of that thank you and team“

“Our father passed away suddenly on Friday night. Both of my parents are parishioners of the Incarnation Catholic Church, which is few minutes down the street. Per word of mouth, Becvar & Son was recommended to our mother. We connected with the funeral home on Friday night, met Saturday 9AM. By 2PM on Saturday, all the logistics for the prayer cards, wake, flowers, obituary, cemetery logistics, picture presentation, along with video slideshow were completed. Dave provided quick and direct responses to all queries and concerns in regards to the items listed above. Dave was very flexible and patient with creating a wonderful obituary. Such a quick turnaround allowed our family to focus on creating a warm and detailed visual display during the wake. Especially since the funeral was planned for Tuesday, 4 days after death.

I think the most important part is the mortician. After our father passed away from cancer, our mother was concerned for open casket. When we visited our father during the wake, he looked warm, there was color in his skin, he looked like himself. As heartbreaking as it was, it was also amazing.

The wake was beautiful, our family was very pleased. We were given access before our entry time, and did not feel rushed to leave. It was a very family oriented environment.
On the the day of the funeral, each immediate family driver was given a # place card, 1 through 6, where our mom was in 1st car, etc... this allowed for smooth, and non-eventful procession.

After the funeral services were over, we were able to access the extra flowers for our dad's grave. While we were loading the flowers, Becvar & Son provided a bag where all the extra prayer card, sympathy cards, thank you card, sympathy booklet, along with a large cross that was hanging inside the coffin while it was open. Our mother was very happy with the items received.

Becvar & Son made our family feel welcome, they provided perfect atmosphere to sendoff our dad. We strongly recommend them, and are very thankful.“

“Jasmine Youngblood was very helpful in assisting us in exchanging our double niche for a triple niche so that we could have our daughter’s ashes put in our niche as she unexpectedly passed away recently. She was very patient with us as we requested pictures of where the new niche would be in comparison to where ours previously was. She has been very helpful with all of our questions which is greatly appreciated during this difficult time.“

“From the very first call, Ms. Holt put my heart at ease and guided us through planning my mother’s homegoing with such care. She was patient, kind, and professional — even with our last-minute changes. And when we somehow forgot the casket spray, Ms. Holt graciously told us that she would get one for us on the house. My mother looked beautiful, and everything was handled with love and respect. The homegoing service was truly heartfelt. It was a pleasure doing business with W W Holt Funeral Home. I highly recommend“
