Funeral Services & Cemeteries near Wayne

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

“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“

“Loosing my dad was one of the hardest moments of my life, but Anthony’s warmth, kindness shown to my family meant more than i can put into words. His support, patience and compassion was extraordinary. I will always be grateful for everything he did.“

“During one of the most difficult times of our lives, the team at Shook Funeral Home provided care and compassion that truly exceeded our expectations. Words cannot fully express how grateful our family is for the dignity, professionalism, and genuine kindness they showed while honoring my father.

Every detail was handled with thoughtfulness and respect. They guided us through each step with patience and understanding, making an overwhelming process feel manageable and personal. It was clear that they were not simply doing a job — they were helping us celebrate a life that meant everything to us.

We will always be thankful for the comfort and support they provided. I highly recommend Shook Funeral Home to any family in need of compassionate and professional service.“

“My family and I just experienced the loss of my father. As you can imagine, we were flooded with sorrow and emotions. The staff at Feeney Funeral Home were supportive from the first moment they picked up my initial phone call. I was fortunate enough to speak with and work with a number of their staff members, but I was able to really get supportive personal care during meetings with both Michele and Kerry. If God forbid you should experience a loss in your family, I 1000% recommend Feeney Funeral Home for all of your services needs.“

“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!“

“The funeral director Michelle guided my family through this process with respect and empathy. It’s hard to lose a love one but she made the process easier (if that’s possible). The grounds and parlor were beautiful and plenty of parking. Thank you Mrs Michelle for everything..“

“Angelo and the staff of Ridgewood Memorial Arts helped us so kind and professional with the memorial of our parents. Highly recommend them.“

“I felt comfortable and at ease from start to finish. They took great care of my beloved Matriarch and I will never forget it ❤️.“

“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 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.“

“I highly recommend John Manke at Manke Funeral Home for all of your funeral needs! My father passed away very unexpectedly and we had no idea where to begin. I was referred to John and was able to speak with him a short time later, despite it being late at night. He began the process immediately and was there every step of the way. We had difficulties getting in touch with the medical examiners office in NYC and he was able to get in touch with them quickly and put everything into motion. Nick transported my dad from Brooklyn to the funeral home in Paterson. John updated us throughout his trip and Nick was very caring and thoughtful during the transportation process. While working with John he was professional, kind, thoughtful, communicative, and really helped to put our minds at ease during an unimaginable time. He walked us through the entire process from start to finish, was upfront about the costs of everything, and was able to work within our budget to lay my dad to rest. We are forever grateful for John and the entire team at Manke Funeral Home! It was the best decision we could have made. Thank you for bringing kindness and light during our family’s darkest hours.“

“Deborah was fantastic from the first contact to the end she made this difficult day so much easier. Thank you so much“

“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.“

“This place was amazing at a tragic time in my life. They were sweet, patient, and shipped my mother’s ashes to me here in North Carolina. They treated me with respect and their compassion is real. Thank you!“

“We used SW Brown Funeral Home for my grandmother's service and we were so impressed with the care and treatment we received. They went above and beyond for my family. We were extremely satisfied. The staff was compassionate, accommodating and handled everything so well.“

“I want to express my deepest gratitude to the team at Calhoun Mania Funeral Home for the incredible care and compassion they showed in attending to my mother.

From the very first moment we reached out to them, we were met with kindness, patience, and genuine understanding during one of the most difficult times in our lives. They guided us through every step with clarity and grace, never rushing us, and always making sure our wishes—and my mother’s dignity—were honored.

The attention to detail in the arrangements was exceptional. Everything was handled with such professionalism and respect, and they created a service that truly reflected my mother’s life beautifully. It brought us comfort to see how thoughtfully everything was prepared.

Most importantly, they treated our family like people, not just clients. Their compassion made an unbearable time feel a little more bearable, and we will always be grateful for that.

I cannot recommend them highly enough for anyone needing funeral services. They go above and beyond in every sense.“

“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“

“I would like to take this time to thank everyone at Gaita Funeral Home. Their support, patience, and guidance throughout my mother’s passing 🕊were nothing short of impeccable. 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!❤
Florence Bolton Farquharson“

“I cannot say enough about the professionalism and compassion demonstrated by Robert Schoem’s Menorah Chapel, its manager Gary Schoem, and their talented staff. From the very first phone call, they guide families with patience, clarity, and genuine care. They carefully address the specific needs of each family and service. They are fully committed to Jewish law and tradition. Their sensitivity during painful moments has brought tremendous comfort to three generations. The Jewish community of New Jersey is profoundly grateful for their exemplary service.“

“I would like to thank Toby for all his hard work on getting our death certificates for us. 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 ❤“

“Thank you for your compassionate care. Jason and his staff was present from the moment my late dad was in comfort care to the time that his remains was repatraited back to Nigeria. Jason coordinated all these plans effortless and communicated with me periodically. Your professionalism, dedication, attention to details, listening ears, and supports was greatly appreciated.

We are grateful for making my dad looked like he was still with us physically with a great smile on his face. The cosmetologist did a great job that we had to have an open view during this funeral service.

I will definitely recommend Madonna Multinational Funeral Home to anyone who is looking forward to giving their love ones a last dignity with a befitting burial. There service is excellent with a reasonable fee.

Kind regards,
Ola.“
