EXCELLENT Based on 48 reviews Posted on Tiffany NelsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have so much to commend Vanessa and Ari for, that I cannot possibly put it all into words. I'll try my best. My Father passed away and it was horrifically painful. So many arrangements had to be made so quickly. Ari was very professional, detail-orientated, and made the process very smooth. Vanessa was extraordinarily helpful, caring, and sweet. If it wasn't for her, there is NO way I could have gotten through this. I am so thankful that my Father had made arrangements with her prior to his passing. I could not imagine going through the process with anyone other than Vanessa and her company. It was the first funeral I ever had to arrange as an adult - as both my parents were gone. From collection of my Father's body, selection of coffin, St. George church arrangements, financial details, floral arrangements, prayer cards, the live bugler and National Guard personnel, cemetery, and grieving, she may it as smooth of a process as it could be. The mortician respectfully made my Father look wonderful for his final resting place. Also, we were very impressed how they secured intersections while our funeral procession went through. I am so thankful Vanessa made my Father's military service a priority and she arranged such a special and heart-touching moment when the live bugler played Taps. I'm forever grateful for that. Just grieving took all my brain space capacity, so I am beyond thankful we ended up in her hands. Her wonderfully sweet puppy made for the best emotional support as well. I highly recommend her! <3 <3Posted on Laura PetersonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

They were patient, kind, professional, reasonable in cost and offerings. The staff is beyond responsive. They are so caring and kind at a time when it is so necessary to be as such. My mom’s services were beautiful, respectful and they treated her with such honor. Our entire family was treated with kindness and felt incredibly supported before, during and after the services. We are so grateful to Vanessa and her entire team. I fully and highly recommend their services.Posted on George Dean VosnosTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I laid my mother to rest today, and I am deeply thankful for the kindness, respect, and support Vanessa and her entire team at Memory Eternal have shown me throughout the entire process - from the early stages through the final moments earlier this afternoon. Every detail of my mother's funeral was handled with such excellence and professionalism, and this allowed my grieving family and I to fully focus on honoring her and being together. I could not have asked for - or even imagined - more compassionate care, and this support was constant and present throughout the entire process. To Vanessa, Christopher, Irene, Ari and the entire team: thank you so much for stepping in and supporting me during such a painful chapter of my life, and lifting such a tremendous burden from my shoulders when I need it the most. Your help meant the world to me.Posted on Stephanie LangeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Incredibly professional. In my family's most trying time, at the loss of my father, Vanessa and her staff were so warm, and caring and patient with not only myself, but my Mother and sister. Each and every step was made easier by this wonderful group of people. I can't thank them enough.Posted on Diane YfantisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
