“It was a beautiful and welcomed experience in the handling all the details, in the sorrowful loss of my husband. At Scanlan’s, with Meghan Owens, being so kind, so professional, taking care of all our needs. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being a champion to us, as we grieved.

Scanlan’s is top notch for beauty, light, and peace, along with accommodations for children’s room equipped with games on computers. We loved having coffee within your beautiful appointed room, with the fireplace going. I was so happy that your establishment made it uplifting and very nice, with our sadden hearts.
Thank you Meghan for your help and kindness.“

“I cannot say enough about Bizub-Quinlan Funeral Home. When my dad unexpectedly passed away in April 2026, we were completely lost and overwhelmed. Wayne was absolutely incredible, so compassionate, knowledgeable, and understanding in this awful time. They are an honest business and went above and beyond to ensure our memorial was beautiful, honoring exactly my father’s wishes and our family’s. Even after the memorial, they extended their support, offering their services if we ever needed anything else or had any questions during this difficult time. They have cared for my grandfather, my aunt, and now my father, and I trust them wholeheartedly with these precious moments. I am so grateful for their care. We had flowers delivered for the memorial and they took great care of them– even holding them until we could pick them up after the service.“

“My family has hired Shooks for two of our precious family members who passed away in the past few years. Each time was a caring and peaceful experience. I did not assist with planning the funeral, other family members handled that. But all the interactions I had with staff was pleasant. Thank you for taking good care of my family in our time of sorrow.“

“They were very helpful throughout the entire process. Jim helped us write an amazing obituary from just talking to us about our uncle. They even followed up a few weeks after the funeral to see if we needed anything“

“Sgobba did an amazing job cleaning my parents’ badly discolored headstone. I stopped by their office at noon and by 3pm the headstone was restored to new. The headstone was purchased from them 30 years ago and they delivered the same quality, professional service today that they did three decades ago!“

“We are very satisfied with the service provided by Edwards Funeral Chapel. This was the first death in our family, and we had no idea how to handle everything. Jack, the Funeral Director explained the entire process to us with great patience and assisted us with all the arrangements step by step.
Our family is Polish, and he was very understanding and respectful of our traditions and needs. Everything was handled with the highest level of dignity, compassion, and professionalism. During such a difficult time, their support meant more to us than words can express.
The burial was in Pennsylvania, over a 2-hour drive away, and everything was coordinated with the church there smoothly and respectfully. Josh, the driver, was extremely professional and respectful, guiding our family step by step throughout the process and making sure everything went properly.
Compared to some other funeral homes we looked at, their pricing was also very reasonable for such a high-quality level of service and care.
The funeral home itself is also beautifully done inside — very clean, welcoming, and recently renovated, which created a peaceful and comforting atmosphere for our family and guests.

We highly recommend this funeral home to anyone looking for compassionate, respectful, and professional service. We truly cannot thank them enough for making this painful experience a little easier for our family.“

“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.“

“Ron has a heart of gold and made the arrangements for my aunt’s funeral as easy as possible. We were so grateful to have worked with him and his staff.“

“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!❤

“I interviewed several chapels, and Jewish Memorial stood out not only for their price but also for their service. 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.“

“During this difficult family time, Lisa and her team at Biondi funeral home, were extraordinarily helpful and went beyond the scope of being merely professional. They were here able to handle with grace and dignity, all aspects of my mother-in-law‘s funeral that. went way beyond what we had any right to expect. We can’t imagine a stronger recommendation than this…“

“Rebhi and his team were transparent, thorough, and understanding when it came to the funeral services for my father in law. They were present and ready to assist for both the wake and funeral mass services. I cannot thank the staff at Michigan Memorial enough for helping us during this difficult time.“

“My father-in-law’s services took place yesterday 5/23/25, and the day before. We dealt with James at Festa. He is an absolute superstar at his work. Every detail was taken care of with ease, a seamless experience. If you want your loved one’s services and remains handled with kindness, respect, and dignity, there is no reason to go anywhere else. Talk to James, and he will take care of you. 10 stars.“

“Unfortunately used the services of Galante Funeral Home multiple times, but they made the process as smooth as possible each time.
The staff are very professional, kind and helpful at every step of the process.
We’ve recommended multiple people over to them as well and everyone has had nothing but good things to say.“
