“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.“

“Our sincerest gratitude for the excellent service and care provided by Michael, Andrea and team for our mom's funeral service; from our initial meeting at Ippolito's to the viewing, funeral mass, burial and the police escorts. All the details were handled with great care, compassion and professionalism. Our mom looked so natural; very pleased.“

“Recently, my husband passed away.and we chose to use Higgins of Watching because we have used them in the past and knew they are the best in the business! I chose to have a somewhat unconventional funeral this time And Bob who was our director was nothing short of incredible! There was no detail he said no to. Consequently I felt like we gave my husband a send off he would have been happy with.
The room was ample in size for our large group, clean, bright, well maintained and beautiful!
Plenty of water, tissues and mints were provided. And we chose to have a video slideshow, of which was terrific! They made the process seamless in every way! And both owner brothers as well as the entire staff were compassionate, and professional throughout our time there.
I highly recommend this wonderful team for all your funeral needs.“

“Exceptional Service with Heart and Compassion.

Our family is deeply grateful to the entire team at Gustav J. Novak Funeral Home in Perth Amboy for the extraordinary care, professionalism, and compassion they showed during the services for our beloved grandmother, Carmela “Mamá Negra” Eduardo Florentino.

From the very first moment, Greg and his son Hunter, along with Rafi and Bobby, went above and beyond to attend to every detail with patience, warmth, and respect. Their kindness and flexibility made an incredibly difficult time much more bearable.

A very special thank you to Bobby, whose delicate work in preparing and presenting my grandmother was nothing short of art. My mother and our entire family were deeply moved by how beautiful and peaceful she looked — a true reflection of her spirit.

The entire service was flawlessly organized — from the viewing, which received an overwhelming outpouring of love (we estimate over a thousand visitors came through), to the coordination with St. Stephen’s Church, where everything ran smoothly and on time.

The facility itself is spacious and welcoming, and even with hundreds of people flowing in and out, the staff managed every aspect with grace and calm.

In moments of grief, what you need most is compassion, understanding, and dignity — and Novak Funeral Home provided exactly that. On behalf of the entire Eduardo Florentino and Cruz Mayí family, our heartfelt thanks for your care, professionalism, and humanity. You truly went above and beyond.“

“I want to express my deepest gratitude to Alvin for his kindness, respect, and exceptional support during one of the most difficult times in my life. My mother’s passing was sudden, and I had no idea how to navigate the process of funeral arrangements or cremation. Alvin guided me through every step with patience, compassion, and professionalism. His hospitality and genuine care made an overwhelming situation easier to bear, and because of his help, I was able to give my mother a beautiful final goodbye. I will always be thankful for his thoughtfulness and the comfort he provided to me and my family during this time.“

“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 recently held our mother’s funeral services at McCriskin-Gustafson’s Home for Funerals in South Plainfield, and during such an incredibly difficult time, the care and compassion we received made all the difference.

Jimmy, Ricky, Jack, Kerri, Harry, and the entire staff treated our family with the utmost respect, professionalism, and kindness. Your support, attention to detail, and genuine compassion helped ease some of the burden during our time of grief.

Our mom looked peaceful, well-rested, and truly beautiful—something that brought us great comfort. We are deeply grateful for everything you’ve done and want to sincerely thank you for the dignity and care you showed our family.

With heartfelt appreciation,
The DiMaria Family“

“We are beyond grateful to Rossi Funeral Home and especially to Bill for guiding us through such a difficult time. From the very beginning, Bill handled every detail of planning with such professionalism, care, and compassion. He walked us through each step, making sure we felt supported and never overwhelmed.

On the day of the services, everything was executed flawlessly—from the wake to the church service to the cemetery for the burial. Bill ensured the entire day flowed smoothly and beautifully, allowing us to focus on honoring and celebrating our loved one without worry. His attention to detail, kindness, and calm presence truly made a difference for our family.

It was a beautiful day and a beautiful tribute, and we couldn’t have asked for better guidance or support. Thank you, Bill, and thank you Rossi Funeral Home, for helping us through this with such grace. We truly appreciate you.“

“My 104 year old Mother passed away and I had her service done at the Bradley Funeral Home in Chatham, NJ. I worked with Patrick and, from the very first meeting, he was kind, compassionate, knowledgeable and professional. He made the whole process, from initial planning, to the Celebration of life service and the graveside service, smooth and as stress free as possible. He handled all the details thoroughly and quickly. I was very impressed with his empathy and speed of resolution of any issues that arose. He responded immediately to any of my texts and phone calls. I highly recommend Patrick and the entire staff at the Bradley Funeral Home in Chatham, NJ. They made a difficult time remarkably easy. The services were lovely.“

“I am writing to say a huge thank you to Mary Ann and her team for their compassionate and professional services following my mom's passing. I was particularly concerned about having an open casket, but they honored her beautifully. She looked as though she was sleeping peacefully. Your kindness and attention to detail made an incredibly difficult time a little easier, and for that, I will always be grateful. Thank you again for you care and support.“

“Absolutely fantastic experience. We visited a different funeral home prior to seeing Shawn at Gerity which he did not know prior to meeting me. We ended up having services at this location for my mother. His knowledge and the way he conducts himself is exactly what you want to deal with when you have a death in the family. He handled everything from getting my mother to NJ from a different state to booking our repose. The facility is also very nice and homey. We will be back if we need services again.“

I highly recommend this funeral home.“

Joe Lebisky was outstanding--kind, professional, and incredibly supportive through every step of the process. He made a difficult time much easier with his attention to detail and genuine compassion.

I can't thank them enough for their compassion and professionalism. I highly recommend Sheenan Funeral Home--and especially Joe--to anyone seeking support and care during such an emotional time.

We truly appreciate everything Joe and the team did for our family and highly recommend them.“

“Losing a loved one is never easy, but working with Will and his team at Pettit Davis Funeral Home is comforting, seamless, and at a reasonable cost.

I’ve known the Davis family for over forty years and trusted them with the care of our family members who have passed on.

The kindness and empathy Will and his team provide are essential when managing the loss of a loved one.

Thank you for your sincere and compassionate service.“

It's a difficult time arranging a funeral, and no one likes to remember what it was like actually arranging all of it, but, for those who are looking for help, just know that this is a great home, and I thank them a lot for their help and kind service.

They helped my family, and two other families close to ours. High praise from us all.“

“I would like to thank Dan Rica for his compassion, patience, and kindness in helping my family plan my dad's funeral in September. Everything about the funeral and graveside service went as well as possible. Dan let us know that, as a veteran, my dad was entitled to have the Honor Guard at the cemetery, which was something I wasn't familiar with. He told us we needed to find my dad's discharge papers, and allowed me to take a photo and send it to him. Everything about the process was easy and stress-free, thanks to Dan's help and answering all of our questions. I would highly recommend Menorah Chapels should you find yourself in the unfortunate position of having to plan a funeral.“
