Funeral Services & Cemeteries near Watertown

“I can't recommend Nardone funeral home enough. They handled my father's funeral in 2021, and my grandmothers funeral last week. Both of them went through lengthy hospital stays before they passed away. They did a beautiful job with both of them, which was very important to my mother and our family. My father couldn't have a traditional wake due to the pandemic, but Carmine and Christine made sure my mother and my uncle were able to say goodbye to him for a few hours. They were together for 51 years, and I appreciate that more than I can explain.“

“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.“

“All my family has been at the Doherty funeral home going back just about 100yrs.
Beautiful services.“

“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.

“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.“

Thanks to their dedication and professionalism, we were able to hold a beautiful, grand, and deeply honorable funeral for our loved one.

“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.“

“Incredible people that went the extra mile to give me some financial relief during one of the hardest times of my life.“

“Beautiful historic burial grounds, with lush gardens, winding walking paths and trails, various elevation and views of Boston. Facilities include a chapel and visitor center. Headstones date back hundreds of years with some notable figures.

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

Lovely afternoon adventure“

“I cannot recommend this funeral home highly enough. As a young person handling funeral arrangements alone for the first time, I had no idea where to begin. Lou and Rich who own and operate the funeral home were incredibly kind, compassionate, and patient throughout the entire process.

I had multiple phone calls with them, and they always took the time to answer my questions and walk me through every step. They never made me feel rushed or overwhelmed, and their guidance gave me a great deal of comfort during an extremely difficult time.

Their professionalism, empathy, and genuine care for the families they serve truly set them apart. I am deeply grateful for their support and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of funeral services.“

“The people at Levine Chapels took great care and patience in making the experience of the viewing and burial more bearable for me. Olivia was extremely caring and supportive throughout and offered me great comfort. I was very grateful to David for his prayers at the burial. I will be contacting them for further guidance.“

“The staff was amazing from the initial phone call. The attention to detail, availability, flexibility, helped make a difficult process one that felt easy to manage.“

“My family and I wanted to acknowledge the services provided to us after my husband Igor passed away. It was devastating to the whole family but Eddie was exceptional. He was very patient. Provided the best services asked at the cemetery and even placed a candle for me at my husband's grave when it was too difficult for me to get there. We greatly appreciate the service and the assistance provided. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Victoria“
