Head up the tower for a view of the Boston and Cambridge skyline - about a 50ft climb up stairs.

Lovely afternoon adventure“

“Frank Joyce and his team at Joyce Funeral Home took tremendous care of my elderly mother in making and handling arrangements on my father's sudden passing - starting on the Sunday my father passed away, with Frank returning my call that very day. He met with my mother, myself, and another sibling for over 4 hours the next day to obtain the information needed and help my mother decide on her preferences. To be clear, not that much time was needed - but Frank listened attentively and caringly to our various stories and shared some of his own. From our meeting, Frank obtained enough information to put together a lovely draft obituary, which we then augmented. He patiently provided advice and guidance regarding the services to be held and the practicalities. Frank made everything easy - he provided a google drive link for us to upload photos, which his team turned into a video slideshow and digital banner for the wake, collage poster boards for the wake, pages in the guest book, etc. - however, he also offered to scan hard copy photos (even in frames) if that was all we had. They handled everything - even ordering the thank you notes - and it was all lovely - and were thoughtful of my mother's and the family wishes and added comforting touches (for example, arranging for the donation of particularly large flower displays post-service). When the date we selected for the funeral service conflicted with a mass that all (active) priests in the parish were required to attend, Frank reached out to a retired priest he knows to handle the service. I cannot say enough good things about Frank and Joyce Funeral Home.“

“While it is unfortunate to require funeral services, Stanetsky handled every detail perfectly and professionally. From ritual services to every logistical detail all was executed with precision and care. While this was handled last minute and done right, I suggest handling these matters before you need them.“

“Dan was so supportive during the losses of both our Mom and Dad, 14 months apart. He is a consummate professional in navigating families through the unfamiliar process of planning a funeral and he was also attentive to all the details.“

“Exceptional Service and Deep Comfort

The family and friends cannot express enough gratitude to the incredible staff at Henry J. Burke & Sons Funeral Home. During one of the most difficult times for the family, their exceptional warmth and thoughtfulness brought to them immense comfort.

They went above and beyond by proactively communicating and coordinating seamlessly with both the family and the friends in charge of the ceremony. Every single detail was handled with the utmost care, ensuring that the guests and family received incredibly attentive service throughout. Thanks to their dedication and professionalism, we were able to hold a beautiful, grand, and deeply honorable funeral for our loved one. They truly brought the family peace and comfort when they needed it most. Their services are highly recommend.“

“At sad times, when support and guidance are needed, you can rely on Eaton Funeral Home in Needham. We used Eaton for the memorials of both our parents, and the arrangements were handled deftly and with elegance. Bob Timmerman organized everything so well that were able to focus on family and friends, which made for a more meaningful experience. We thank Bob and the staff at Eaton for their help when it was most acutely required.“

“I just want to say that the funeral home did a great job with my mother’s wake. It was a great service and I wanted to thank you for the everything you did for our family“

“My mom passed away suddenly last Sunday. We had just celebrated her 96th birthday, and hours later we were gathered around her hospital bed saying our goodbyes after she had a hard fall. I was in a daze, the hospital told us the funeral home would handle everything, so I searched on Google for one nearby. When I found Folsom, it said we could call 24 hours/day. It was midnight, I made the call, and Bob Folsom himself answered the phone. That is correct, no machine, no AI. He offered to meet with us at noon the next day. After a 2 hour meeting with him in Westwood where he presented us with several options and gave us a reasonable cost estimate. From there forward, he and his son Brian handled everything. I was hugely impressed, and grateful that he and Brian helped us navigate this difficult experience with grace and compassion. The personal touch of a family owned business is what made the difference. I highly recommend Folsom Funeral Services, they are thorough, efficient, honest, and compassionate.“

“My father, a Lutheran Minister, who worked with many local funeral homes, chose Folsoms for my mother's and his own. They couldn't have made it easier for my family and I. Everything was taken care of beautifully. Extra effort was made to complete some extra touches when we were late or forgetful. Bob and Brian were ever professional. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.“

“Kevin, Ralph and the entire staff made this difficult time much easier to handle. I really enjoyed seeing Mary and Winnie at meetings and the morning of my dad's service. Thank you for your caring, consideration and understanding during this challenging time.“

my uncle nicolas person is going to have a burial place here“

“Highly recommend this funeral home. I recently had to make arrangements for my brother and the care and professional support was outstanding.“

“5 years ago Christmas eve my Nana passed. She was such a strong independent woman. She was kind. She had a sharp wit, she was our rock. When she passed we were lost. As we gather years later there is a debt of gratitude I must pay.
I accompanied my mom to Cafasso funeral home on what must have been the hardest day of her life. The kindness we were met with, the interest that Joe showed in my Nana. Who she was, what she liked. It made that moment so special. As we gathered for christmas this year, I realized everybody remembered her services, but nobody said thank you to the people who made it happen.
Joe, thank you for all the Dandelions, her favorite, there were plenty and we noticed EVERYBODY noticed. Thank you for making a very tough time so very special.
