Emily, Chris, and the whole team at Ahearn were so professional and caring during a very tough time for my family and me. They were always several steps ahead of me, having what I needed before I even knew I needed it. Their support has continued weeks later, and they've been quick to respond to any request. My heartfelt appreciation to Ahearn for helping us navigate an extremely sad and difficult period.

We contacted Ahearn for pre-arrangement for my Mom. We knew things could be complicated as Mom's funeral Mass and burial would be in New York. They coordinated with the funeral home in New York and let us know what would be needed from us. When the time came, it is not just that all of the arrangements went smoothly. Elizabeth and Emily were both most concerned with what would lessen the burden of our loss and we knew that Mom was being cared for with dignity and kindness. I know a lot of people are not comfortable with prearrangement but, we are grateful that we could concentrate on our family and our memories while the good people at

A couple weeks ago I received a phone call that someone had found my wallet and its contents blowing across an entrance ramp to 91S. You guessed it...I put it on the roof of my car at the gas station and didn't give it a second thought. I was amazed that this person actually stopped, and risked his safety, to try to gather everything. Fortunately, only a couple items were lost-not the important ones. I would like to take this time to express that I am forever grateful to Chris Powers from Ahearn Funeral Home. Thank you for taking the time to stop to save my wallet. I never would have found it. I'm not sure how many people would have done that. Thanks again.
