    We came to Ithaca for our son’s graduation and a family member from out of the U.S. passed away here. We consulted with Joe from Bangs and we knew right away that he understood the mission, and he went to work right away and got us exactly what we needed at the best price. He explained everything to us and went above and beyond for us. So grateful for him.

    Had a wonderful experience working with Gary at Bangs for my father's funeral service in Ithaca & transportation for burial out of state. My family was especially pleased with Gary's embalming services - we only wanted the casket open for the family, but he made my dad look so good we could have left it open the whole time! Gary provides the best of everything you need in a sad & stressful time - kindness, attention to detail, skill & knowledge of his profession & a sense of humor when appropriate. Everyone at Bangs has been very polite, professional and thorough with every little detail that we needed taken care of. Highly recommend!

    I cannot sing Gary's praises highly enough. My father died unexpectedly and the last 5 days have been an absolute nightmare. Of all of the things that my family has been through,this was one of the things I was dreading the most. It's another level of finality that your parent is truly gone. But by the time my brother and I left Bangs,we felt at peace. He made a really traumatic experience anything but. He has a way about him that puts you immediately at ease. The process was smooth and it was handled very gently and efficiently. He really was such a comfort and just a pleasure to be around. So,a huge thank you to Gary and the folks at Bangs for taking care of my family...read full review
