“The Bizub family are the absolute best at what they do. When my father recently passed, Tim and Ed were absolutely incredible and helped my Mom and I give my father the wake and funeral he so deserved. They are professional, extremely thorough and most important, compassionate in an understandably challenging time. I am grateful that they were able to help us, especially since my father was coming in from a different state and truly made our lives easier. Will see them again.“

“My family worked with Shook's for my grandmother's funeral and everything was perfect. They helped us navigate the entire process with ease and dignity. They were responsive and kind throughout. They had also done my grandfather's funeral in 1994 and still had his info on file which was helpful. I would recommend Shooks to anyone.“

“The professionalism and compassion that they showed my family, and I at the loss of my wife and mother of my children, was blessing in our time of pain. Everyone there went out of their way to help us, answer any questions, and anticipate any of are needs. Still, to this day, four months later, they are helping us with the headstone purchase. Myself and my family would highly recommend them to help you as they helped us.“

My mother would have been very thankful for such a beautiful send-off. And for that I cannot that you enough!! - The Bensons“

“Nick G was so supportive to our family during this difficult time. He handled everything and kept us informed of next steps throughout the process. 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 cannot say enough about the exceptional care we received from Scanlan’s Funeral Home after our father passed away at the age of 95.

Ten years before my father’s passing, we met with Amanda Gates to establish a funeral trust and plan his services while he was still healthy. Because of her guidance and thoughtful planning, many of the difficult decisions had already been made, which was an incredible gift to our family during a time of profound loss.

When my father passed away, Scanlan’s guided us through every step. After the hospice nurse pronounced him, Angelyna and John came to bring him into their care. They treated our father with such gentleness, dignity, and respect that it immediately gave us comfort.

Amanda then helped us finalize the arrangements for the visitation, funeral, and cemetery services. Everything was handled seamlessly and with great compassion. Jennifer spoke beautifully at both the funeral home and the cemetery. She took the time to learn about my father’s life, ensuring her words truly reflected the wonderful man he was. Michael warmly greeted family and friends during the visitation, and Bob later drove the hearse with kindness and professionalism.

One gesture, in particular, touched us beyond words. Amanda remembered that my father had immigrated from Munich, Germany, that he loved Spaten beer, and that his favorite song was “You Are My Sunshine.” When we arrived for the visitation, there was a small table beside his casket with three engraved beer mugs—one for my brother, my sister, and me—each engraved with the title of his favorite song. Beside them sat bottles of Spaten beer on ice. It was such a thoughtful and personal tribute. My father would have absolutely loved it, and it brought smiles through our tears.

The visitation and funeral were elegant, tasteful, and deeply personal—a beautiful celebration of my father’s remarkable life and his 95 years.

As a final, meaningful connection, we learned that when my father first immigrated to the United States and began working as a home builder, he had actually worked on the Scanlan family’s home many years ago. It felt as though life had come full circle.

We will always be grateful to Amanda and everyone at Scanlan’s Funeral Home for treating our father—and our entire family—with such compassion, professionalism, and heartfelt care. They didn’t simply arrange a funeral; they celebrated a life well lived. We recommend Scanlan’s Funeral Home without hesitation and will always be grateful for the care they gave our father and our family.“

“ABBY WAS A BLESSING FOR ME AND MY FAMILY SHE HANDLEDVEVERYTHING TO THE FULLEST LIVINGSTON IS WHERE SHE IS THANK YOU ABBY 😊“

“I want to thank Letty at John B Houston's for being incredibly compassionate and professional handling the funeral service of our beloved grandmother Maria. She was so understanding, wasted no time, and made every effort so that everything came together quickly for everyone in our family to attend the service. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for going above and beyond for our grandma Maria.“

“Steve and Rebecca are some of the nicest people I’ve ever met. I couldn’t recommend them enough. It’s hard to find people who genuinely care about their work the way those two do.“

“The process of losing a loved one is something no one is ever truly prepared for—it’s overwhelming, emotional, and incredibly difficult. From the moment we walked into Stellato, we were met with warmth, compassion, and a sense of comfort that felt like family.

A special thank you to Dori, who went above and beyond during such a hard time. Her kindness, patience, and attention to every single detail did not go unnoticed. She guided us through every step with care and understanding, making an incredibly painful process just a little bit easier to navigate.

Not a single detail was missed. Everything was handled with such professionalism and genuine heart. We are truly grateful for the support, compassion, and dignity they showed our family.

We cannot recommend them enough to anyone going through such a difficult time.“

“I have, unfortunately, had to coordinate 2 unexpected losses timed too closely. We initially coordinated with Ron and he was absolutely wonderful. Most recently, we coordinated with his daughter, Renee, who is the most incredibly empathetic and supportive person you could wish to be supported by as you navigate the worst circumstances of your life.

Renee spends time, says the right things in the right way, and truly feels like family. Candidly, I cannot imagine making it through this time without her dedicated support.

She is diligent, organized, and insightful. While I imagine her job is not an easy one, her kindness, compassion and support was so appreciated during this difficult time for our family and we are so grateful to have worked with her.

She has been a blessing to us and an invaluable guide throughout the process. I highly encourage anyone suffering a loss to reach out to Renee and the Par-Troy team.“

“During one of the hardest times for our family, Bob and Meg at Prout Funeral Home treated us with warmth, kindness, and professionalism. From the very beginning, they made us feel supported, never pressured, and truly cared for. They were patient, easy to talk to, and helped create a calm and comforting environment for our family.

I had heard from others that planning a funeral can be difficult emotionally and financially, but Prout made the process much easier than we expected. What stood out most was their 1) caring attitude, 2) transparent fees, 3) clear communication, and 4) therapy dog, Morris. One evening, while my daughter and I were working on the obituary page, Meg unexpectedly called us. She was also working late, saw us online, and wanted to personally help guide us through the process. Small acts of kindness like that gave our family a lot of peace of mind during a very stressful time.

The service itself was handled with care, dignity, and attention to detail. They balanced professionalism with genuine compassion in a way that truly honored our loved one’s memory. We even went over our scheduled time by 30 minutes, and they did not charge us extra for it. We are deeply grateful for their guidance, patience, kindness, and integrity“

“From my Parents to All my friends being in Van Der May care, Always Excellent ❤“

They truly understood our family, showed us endless compassion, and handled every detail with care and respect. They made an incredibly difficult day feel special and meaningful in honoring my mother.

A heartfelt thank you to Santiago and Jodi for the exceptional work and support you showed us. Your kindness meant more than words can express, and we truly consider you close friends. Thank you for everything you did for our family during this time.
Thank you!❤

It took such a long time but he worked hard for us with compassion and was patient with us when we were frustrated with how long everything took he was. Excellent place to have you funeral service with. Toby is wonderful ❤“

“? I had to arrange funeral matters from a distance, which made an already heartbreaking situation even more difficult. Thankfully, I was fortunate to have Izabela by my side. She was not only an incredible organizational support but also a true source of emotional strength. She guided me step by step through the entire process, explaining clearly what needed to be done at each stage — it truly felt like being led by the hand through something overwhelming. I wouldn’t wish anyone to be in the situation I was in, but if you ever find yourself in need of funeral services, I wholeheartedly and sincerely recommend Izabela. Her compassion, professionalism, and dedication made a world of difference.? Dziekuje !♥️“

“Victor and Sal made me feel like part of their family. They went above and beyond—even coming to my house late at night to pick up my mom’s clothes. On my way over, the day of the service, I couldn’t wait to see them because they gave me the reassurance that everything would be okay. I highly recommend Leonardis Funeral Home for anyone that wants a dark time to be a little BRIGHTER…“

From writing a proposal to answering my follow-up questions to coordinating with the rabbi, the hospital, and the cemetery, they made the painful process of death stress-free and dignified.“
