I spoke to James and I believe Dennis, and Vincent .. I cannot express enough how compassionate and understanding they were in my darkest time. They listened to me through my tears. They never pushed for me to buy, they listened to my needs, my requirements, my desires for my hubby's funeral. Everything was just as I wanted it. At such a sad time, they all made things so much easier for me. Rabbi Klein was wonderful. I want to thank PJCC for being there for me. Bless you all !

Reviews
Plaza Jewish was outstanding - kind, compassionate, helpful, and thorough. The gravesite service was exactly as I requested. Everyone at Plaza Jewish felt like my support team (they even were great to my dog when I came in to make funeral arrangements). I highly recommend doing all your funeral arrangements with Plaza Jewish. They made a difficult situation as easy for me as possible. I’m eternally grateful to Plaza Jewish - an excellent resource for all who need it.
We are a fairly active couple in our mid eighties. It isn't easy to stop and think about planning for your funeral. Yet, we have two sons who are occupied with their own lives, and the last thing we want is for them to be saddled with funeral arrangements. We hearkened back to 2011 when Madeline Lasher (mother of Cynthia) passed. This was a maelstrom. Help was needed! Where to go! What to do! Plaza saved the day! Anthony saved the day! And here he was again, making us feel completely at ease--answering all questions clearly and succinctly and informing us, step by step, of the entire process. To put it succinctly, Anthony is amazing--Plaza is amazing!
