“I would have given more than 5 stars if that was an option.
During one of the most difficult moments of our lives — the passing of our beloved mother — Zuasola Funeral Home went above and beyond in every possible way. From our very first contact, their compassion, patience, and professionalism were evident.

Even when it came to transferring our mother from another funeral home, their staff handled every detail with utmost care and dignity. What stood out most was how open and respectful they were toward our Ghanaian cultural traditions and rites. They listened, understood, and created a comforting environment that allowed us to honor our mother the way we wished.

We are Ghanaians, and after experiencing several funeral homes in the New Jersey area, we can confidently say that Zuasola stands out far above the rest — in professionalism, empathy, and cultural sensitivity. They truly made a painful process bearable and helped us celebrate our mother’s life with grace and respect.

We are deeply grateful and highly recommend Zuasola Funeral Home to anyone seeking a funeral home that combines compassion with excellence in service.“

“We recently entrusted Bizub-Quinlan Funeral Home with arrangements for my father’s funeral. Tim was compassionate, professional, and attentive to every detail. He took my calls at odd hours without hesitation, answered every question with patience, and made sure nothing was overlooked.

On the day of the service, he ensured everything went smoothly, including coordinating the Army honors with the playing of taps — something that was especially meaningful to our family. His steady guidance gave us peace of mind during a very difficult time.

On behalf of our family, I want to thank Tim and the staff for their care and support.“

Their blend of professionalism and warmth created an environment where we could feel at ease, which was incredibly reassuring, especially since we understood they were the optimal choice for our needs. I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude to the whole staff at shooks; they genuinely exceeded all my expectations. Nancys dedication and kindness were evident as she went above and beyond. Throughout the process, we connected sharing not just stories but also moments that brought us to tears and genuine embraces. The Shooks family represents an exceptional kind of people who truly prioritize their clients, making everyone feel cherished and included, as if they were part of their own family.“

She has the perfect blend of empathy and confidence needed to soothe families in mourning while handling all the details with ease and grace. Her calm, friendly, warm and welcoming ways helped to guide our family through a profound loss with last minute preparations. She was available at a moment’s notice and made this time of emotional pain feel almost effortless. We are profoundly grateful to have met her and will remember her and her wonderful staff long after our pain subsides.“

“Let me just say...Anthony truly brought our vision to life. My mother’s tribute is beyond our expectations. Her sudden “retirement from life” was devastating, to say the least, but Anthony made sure every detail honored our wishes and allowed us to use a custom design that captured her perfectly.
Ironically, my mother herself used Sgobba’s services years ago for my grandmother and cousin, and without a doubt, we knew we didn’t want to go anywhere else. Hopefully, we won’t need another monument anytime soon, but when that time comes, Sgobba’s is the only one I trust.“

“Great service and caring facility I would recommend the place to my friends and family.“

“In one of the most difficult moments of our lives, we were fortunate to be guided through the process by Michael Brown at Bernheim-Apter-Kreitzman Funeral Chapel. His compassion, professionalism, and genuine care helped make an incredibly painful process more bearable.

Michael's prior experience shepherded us through the logistics of a celebration of life service in NJ and a burial in California —he offered comfort, listened with empathy, and paid attention to every request. He was able to locate a caring, flexible rabbi who communicated the right touch and empathy during our sadness. With his assistance we were able to host an informal luncheon afterwards.

Thank you, Michael, for your quiet presence and organized style so that the whole process went smoothly in NJ and California.“

His compassion, support and knowledge was greatly appreciated. The Levandoski-Grillo funeral home was also beautiful. They even had someone park guest cars during their visit. I dont think we could've asked for a more attentive funeral home staff.“

“Our family used Bradley, Haeberle & Barth Funeral Home in Union 21 years ago for dad's funeral services. This year, we used them again for our Mom's funeral. She was 98. Erica and the entire staff always hit just the right notes of compassion, empathy and understanding while handling our needs and questions with professionalism. We were constantly surprised with the extras that were offered to make our time of mourning easier. Especially want to comment on the quality of our Tribute Video to Mom - everyone who sees it tells us it's the best Tribute Video they've ever seen, and we agree! It's a memento that will continue to give us comfort whenever we review it through the years.“

We are truly grateful for their kindness, support, and the way they helped us give my father the tribute he deserved. I can’t thank them enough for everything they did for our family.“

The care and professionalism they showed in handling my sister’s funeral were absolutely amazing. Everything was done with perfection—they paid close attention to every detail and guided us through every aspect of the planning.
It was an incredibly heartbreaking and difficult time for our family, but Bob was exceptional. His guidance and compassion throughout the entire process alleviated so much of our stress.
We are beyond grateful for everything Prout Funeral Home did for us, and I can’t thank them enough for the comfort and support they provided during such a painful time.
With a grateful heart,
Gillian“
