They made arrangements for us to see our loved one the day before, made beautiful prayer cards for distribution and even provided support and security throughout our events. Whatever extras you may need be it doves or a headstone they have contacts to deliver in a timely manner with empathy and poise. I am grateful for the immense amount of support, love and attentiveness Mr. Michael showed our family. He is someone you would want handling your loved one if the unfortunate reality comes knocking on your door. This is our second time working with him and I hope not to work with him any time soon but if needed he will absolutely be our 1st choice. Thank you Whalen & Ball for taking care of us. If you are reading this and debating where to take your loved one look no further call them now. They will treat you with love and respect.“

“The owners, Patrick McNulty Sr. and his son Patrick Jr., are the most professional and compassionate people I have ever dealt with. What truly stands out is their extraordinary ability to make one of the most difficult experiences in life — laying a loved one to rest — feel possible, handled with such ease, grace, and genuine care. Patrick Jr. who is the funeral director is someone you can truly trust. From the very beginning, he reassured me that he would be there every step of the way, and he absolutely was. The wake and mass at the chapel were absolutely beautiful. They also arranged a live stream and recording so that our family in Colombia could feel like they were part of this special day — something that meant the world to us. I will always be grateful to Patrick Jr. for the kindness, patience, and dignity they brought to such a painful time. They are a true blessing to every family they serve.“

“I had purchased a granit gravestone and had my deceased daughters picture engraved on it, from Westchester Memorials in Hawthorne, NY. It was delivered in excellent conditions to Ellenville, NY. In just the first couple of days of it's delivery I had many compliments on it. It's one of the most beautiful stones in this cemetary. I will attempt to download a pic of it below. (Having a bit of trouble doing so)“

Jim, Mike and the rest of the staff were all wonderful. Their compassion and professionalism made a difficult situation for us managable. My Mom looked beautiful. It was obvious Mom was treated with care and love. Everything went so smoothly from start to finish.We knew some of the procedures as we lost our Dad almost 2 years ago. The way we were assisted back then made our choice of a Memorial Home a very easy decision. There was no question we were going back to Flynn. The men and women at Flynn went above and beyond to help us see our parents will Rest in Peace.We highly recommend Flynn Memorial Home.Margie Duvall Schweizer“
