Funeral Services & Cemeteries near Fanwood

“Ryan at Fanwood Memorial Funeral Home provided exceptional care and support during one of the most difficult times in our family’s life following the passing of my father.
From our very first interaction, Ryan was responsive, courteous, compassionate, and genuinely empathetic. He guided us through every step of the process with patience and professionalism, answering questions promptly and helping us navigate details that can feel overwhelming during a time of grief. Chris, who assisted throughout the services, was also professional, caring, and supportive.
What stood out most was the kindness and respect Ryan and Chris showed not only to my father, but to our entire family. Their caring approach gave us comfort and peace of mind when we needed it most.
I am deeply grateful for the support they provided and would highly recommend Fanwood Memorial Funeral Home to any family seeking compassionate and professional funeral services.“

“I would like to give a big thank you to Joe and John for the wonderful work the two did servicing our family. I had to sadly say goodbye to my 13 year old daughter due to cancer, and from the beginning, the two have shown great care to our situation. From sitting down for the initial conversation, to having to make that call in the middle of the night, to the funeral service and up to the burial, we felt we were in good hands. Although I hope I do not have to step foot in that building for quite some time (sorry Joe), I would 100% seek their services again. God bless and thank you for your words, support, and just blessings. The day we met I actually had gotten the wrong place but now I understand it was God who knew that this would be the business to help and support me at my and my family lowest. If anyone is ever weary or simply unsure rest assure that Sheenan Funeral Home is the best place to go to.“

“As other reviewers have said, I agree 100%, Craig is the best!! Super personable. Can't say enough positives about him. Thanks so much for helping us with the loss of our mother. HIGHLY recommended!!“

“Jackie and Clark were extremely helpful during this process. Thank you for your guidance and support during this difficult time. We are grateful for your knowledge and for helping us give our father the farewell he deserved.“

“The process was not easy for me as I'm sure is the case for many patrons. There was a lot to learn regarding the process. There was some frustration, however, patience and kindness outweighed it all and the finished layout was well worth the wait and brought closure. My family and I are pleased with the finished inscription services. Laly and Andrew our heartfelt thanks for your service during this most difficult time.“

“Although we knew of the inevitable after two years in Memory Care at Brandywine Summit; it was still the most emotional experience ever and the staff at Bradley, led by Chris, spent the time and made the effort to make the process easier and more comfortable. It's not easy when you are dealing with a large family, each with their own thoughts and requests. Not sure any of us were ready for the nearly two hundred people who arrived during Pam's memorial, but Bradley took it in stride

Our Thanks to Chris and the staff at Bradley for their kindness.“

“The service at Judkins Colonial was excellent. The staff were professional, kind, and supportive throughout the process. I truly appreciated their help and the way everything was handled with care and respect.“

“My father passed away quickly in south jersey, where I live. Mr. Badalis made sure that same night my dad was picked up immediately from hospice and brought back to his home town. He helped guide my family through every part of the wake and church service with such gentleness and consideration. Thank you for taking care of my dad. Highly recommend. Nieves-Merced Family.“

“At first I did not know what to think but the service was handled so professional. My sister look like she was sleeping. No complaints.“

“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.“

“Thank you Rossi Funeral Home, but especially Bill, for making this part of the process of death a little bit easier. Bill, the funeral director, was incredibly kind, compassionate, and professional throughout the entire process. He guided us through every step with patience and care, making a very difficult time a bit easier to manage. His attention to detail and genuine empathy meant so much to our family. We are deeply grateful for all that he and the rest of Rossi Funeral Home did for us.“

“From the very beginning, Joe answered my call on a Saturday night and immediately understood the urgency and sensitivity of our situation. He provided guidance and support as we worked through the process of moving my grandmother from a grave in Queens to New Jersey, which is still ongoing with their support.

Joe, Jimmy, and the entire team also helped my family and me arrange the funeral services for my dad, handling everything from A to Z with compassion and professionalism. When my dad passed at home, they were incredibly thoughtful and gave us the time we needed for my sister to return home and say her goodbye. From that moment on, Jimmy guided us through every step with patience and care.

From the cemetery arrangements to the funeral home, the morning mass, and the burial, Jimmy was present for all of it. Knowing he was there made an incredibly difficult time feel more manageable.

Everything was handled with grace, sympathy, and respect. I truly cannot say enough good things about this team. Looking back, the only thing I might have arranged differently would have been a police escort, as we had more cars than expected—but that does not take away from the exceptional care we received.“

“The service was excellent. So many wonderful surprises they added in to make everything extra special during a difficult time without even asking. If you need a place to rest someone this is the place!!“

A special and heartfelt thank you goes to Stephanie C. Feliciano. Stephanie was truly exceptional. Her warmth, patience, and compassion helped guide our family through every step of the process. She answered all of our questions, handled every detail with care, and made us feel supported during a time when we were overwhelmed with grief. Her kindness will never be forgotten.

Losing a loved one is never easy, but Stephanie and the entire team at Gosselin Funeral Home helped ease our burden and ensured that our father was honored with dignity and respect. We are deeply grateful for everything they did for our family and would highly recommend Gosselin Funeral Home to anyone in need of caring and professional funeral services.

Thank you, Stephanie, for going above and beyond for our family. Your compassion made a lasting difference. 💛✨“

“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.“

“Thank you Frank and the staff for organizing my brother’s funeral. They were very thorough and professional, and helped us through this time. We appreciate everything from start to finish.“

“Having to work out the services arrangements for a funeral given the circumstances is a horrible thing to be doing but Dan made this a very supportive experience. He was very informative and transparent in the process.

I had to go through the arrangements last month and it was very difficult but this location was very convenient, the services were financially friendly, and the entire process was seamless. Dan is very accommodating to whatever you need to help you through this time.

There is also a room on the side which was very helpful for people to be in and out of - it was peaceful as the entire place is to yourself so it feels more intimate during such a horrible grieving process. Thanks to Dan and his team it was a little easier.“

“We consider this our family funeral home. They treat you so nice. They understand the suffering in the pain that you go through when a loved one passes on.“

“So all three of my family members have had their services with McCracken and each time was the same nothing short of perfect. Matthew and Jennifer are exceptional. They were comforting and accommodating and most of all caring. Jennifer went the extra mile to make sure everything was perfect for my grandmother. She was so thoughtful and professional. I truly can say this staff puts their best foot forward every time to make such a difficult process so much easier.“

“Although this review is long overdue, I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude to Greg and the entire Novak staff for the exceptional care they provided during our father’s services. From start to finish, the professionalism demonstrated by Gustav J. Novak Funeral Home in Perth Amboy was truly outstanding.

As this was my first time making funeral arrangements, Greg was incredibly supportive and attentive throughout the entire process. He guided me step by step—from providing a clear and helpful checklist to ensure all burial arrangements were completed in advance, to thoroughly explaining the details of both the funeral and church services. His patience and compassion made a very difficult time much more manageable.

The staff was courteous, respectful, and attentive in every aspect, and our experience was seamless. I would highly recommend Gustav J. Novak Funeral Home to anyone in need of funeral arrangements for a loved one.

Thank you again to Greg and the Novak staff for your professionalism and care.

Sincerely,
The Patino Family“

“We have no words to adequately thank Higgins Funeral Home. They guided us through every step of the funeral process for my dad with clarity and care, making a difficult time feel a little more manageable.
Mr. Steve, with genuine compassion, supported our family during this crucial moment—attending to every detail with patience and thoughtfulness, and ensuring that everything was handled with dignity. His kindness and professionalism meant more to us than we can express.
We are deeply grateful for the comfort and support they provided when we needed it most.“

“The Ippolito Berkeley Memorial greatly helped our family during a very emotional and difficult time. Heartfelt thanks to the people who guided us with their expertise and sensitivity.“

“We recently held my father’s viewing and service at Madison Memorial. Victoria and her staff were outstanding. From start to finish and despite the awful weather everything was perfect. Our family highly recommends Madison Memorial Funeral Home!“

“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.“
