They handled my…read moregrandmother's funeral, my mother's funeral, and my sister's cremation (we did not have a funeral for her), in addition to the funerals of many great aunts & uncles, cousins, etc., in my extended family. Just today I called to ask them to handle the cremation of two other kinds of family members - my fur babies, my cats who passed recently - and even though it may cost them a sale, they told me it would save me money to take my cats to the crematorium they would be taking them to. Even when I told them my budget was more than they would be charging me, they still offered me the option to hold onto some of my money. Who gives you that much consistent great service? They treat you like family. When my mom's treatments for a terminal cancer were found to be failing, and I went to them to begin her plans, they had thought of everything, including coordinating with her church, and ordering the meal after her funeral mass. She had some special requests where music was concerned, and I had a CD with that music, which they let play in the background throughout her wake. Afterwards, I gave the cd to one of their employees, as I no longer needed it. He told me how much he enjoyed it. Everyone tries to make you feel comfortable at the worst moment of your life. I know that this is the role funeral homes play, but Dolfi's has been doing this for at least 2 generations. Donna Dolfi was a warm & caring person, and she passed that onto her son, Eric. When my younger sister died in a tragic house fire, and my dad's family & the Red Cross paid for her cremation, they gave us a discount because of the emergency situation. They had inexpensive but elegant urn designs we could easily afford. They retrieved her jewelry from the coroner for her children to hold onto. It's the little things like this that make losing a loved one - whether it's expected after a lengthy illness, or suddenly in a tragic accident - a little easier to deal with.

He and his staff exhibited exceptional customer service and were friendly and knowledgeable in answering all of our questions. Navigating the complexities of a funeral and other associated activities (death certificates, obituary, etc.) is always a challenge, but Dolfi made it a lot easier to deal with everything. I am overwhelmed with the level of professionalism and genuine care that we received. Also, the home is absolutely beautiful and the service was well organized. I'm so glad that we placed our trust in Dolfi.

A worker there forged signatures and didn't even provide paperwork or information to our family. They ordered my moms headstone and placed it when I made it clear I wasn't sure when I was going to lay her ashes rest. I happened to go visit my grandmas grave and found they had placed it already without even calling me. It was put in a spot it shouldn't be. Upon going there so many times, nobody would let me speak to the manager. Everybody I spoke to was the manager which was a lie. The actual manager would not return my calls and I had to show up there. This place is a fraud
