The funeral I just did was in celebration of a woman who thought men should be clean shaven--Michael, the funeral director, shaved his beard in her honor. This type of gesture happens a lot here. They really become a part of people's stories and lives. That's what happens when you've got a family owned business.

If I could give zero stars, I would. Christine at House of Wright was sooooo unprofessional it was…read morealmost comical. She was matter-of-fact, cold, and lacked every ounce of empathy you would expect from someone in this line of work. The entire interaction was substandard from start to finish. They waited until the very last minute to confirm insurance causing services to be pushed back an entire week, stalled on shipping ashes the same day payment was made, and then had the nerve to complain about their staffing shortages like that was my problem. Let me be clear -- when a family is grieving, they don't want excuses, they want compassion and professionalism. I even called and left a message for the owner, and to this day have NEVER received a call back. That alone tells you everything you need to know about how little they value families in their care. The only bright spot was Carl -- the ONLY person at this establishment who acted like he had some sense and helped hold us together during this chaos. Honestly, I wouldn't let them bury my goldfish. You'd be better off buying an acre of land, grabbing a shovel, lighting a bonfire, and burying your loved one yourself. That would be handled with more care than what we experienced here. Do yourself a favor: skip this place. Your loved one deserves way better.

[Disclaimer -- This is a lengthy review, but it cannot be shortened given the quality of service…read morerendered.] The House of Wright delivered a level of care and professionalism that surpassed every expectation. Their compassion and respect created space for mourning that was sacred, seamless, and deeply dignified. From the moment we arrived, the team moved with quiet precision. They anticipated our needs--offering tissues, fanning us as we cried, and gently supporting the casket when I leaned on it in grief. The presentation of our loved one was beautiful. The orchestration of the pallbearers was flawless. Every detail, from subtle gestures to major transitions, was handled with best-in-class excellence. They directed our motorcade from church to final rest without a single disruption. Not one. Their vehicles--spotless and seemingly brand new--reflected extraordinary attention to detail. Our deepest gratitude to Joanne, Hazel, Chris, Keith, and Jordan. Their warmth, grace, and unobtrusive presence allowed us to grieve fully. They did not just serve--they held us. They felt like angels. Even a brief moment of friction during the contract process was resolved with remarkable speed--one call, under 15 minutes, from Brooklyn. That kind of responsiveness speaks volumes about the integrity of this enterprise. The House of Wright is the gold standard in funeral care. Their service is a gift to grieving families, and we are forever grateful. My dear Brother Mr. Wright, your high standards show. You have truly mastered your craft. Respect, Michael Nicholls on behalf of the Nicholls, McClelland, Nicholls-Pierce and Johnson families June 2025

As the end neared, we contacted Scott regarding cremation and funeral. He put us at ease as he went over all the details. Then he took care of all the details, culminating in a wonderful funeral, including an Irish bagpiper and a release of doves. He respectfully orchestrated the ceremony and reception. Along the way, he gave advice on all of the postmortem documents and procedures. He made it easy for us to concentrate on grieving.

Well, I never thought I'd see the day that I would write a review for a funeral home, but that just…read morespeaks to how impeccably Nolan Fidale handled the arrangements for my father-in-law. It all started after my father-in-law passed away in his home after being on hospice. Two burly men from Nolan Fidale showed up at 10 pm (in full dress suits) ready to take his body away. They explained everything to us as they did it (we are moving him here, then we will put him on this stretcher, etc.). When my husband had a moment as he watched them haul his dad off the bed, they paused and asked if it was OK to proceed. They were very aware of the emotions of the people in the room and were extremely sensitive to them. I was not involved in the family meeting the next morning to talk about all the details of the funeral, but when my husband came home he couldn't speak highly enough of Andrea and the service that she had provided that morning. When it came time for the family viewing, I started to understand what he was talking about. The staff was extremely accommodating - holding every single door for us, ushering us along to different places, making sure we had plenty of ice water, tissues, and generally anticipating the needs of the family. Andrea did an excellent job of explaining to all of us what to expect and also gently asking us how we'd like to handle various things. For example, we had to decide if we wanted to donate the flowers to an elderly facility, bring them to the church, or take them home. Andrea got answers to all of the important questions while not being overbearing or insensitive to our grief. During the day of the services the staff handled everything beautifully, once again. While everyone was inside for the viewing, they put flags on all of the cars in the lot so that we'd all be ready for the funeral procession. While we were in the church, they took them all off. Little things like this meant so much to us, because we didn't have to think about any of this stuff, and it was clear that the staff at Nolan Fidale knew exactly what they were doing and they run an extremely efficient operation. During the church services, the staff at Nolan Fidale stuck around and acted as personal concierges to us. I mean, I really can't describe it any other way. At every point, someone was there, answering questions or directing us what to do. They even were directing people to the bathrooms in the church! I also noticed that Andrea shed a few tears during the church service, which I found touching. She clearly hasn't been hardened by this job, or desensitized to death to the point that she's cold and unfeeling. I really respected her ability to be direct and organized while still exuding so much empathy and respect for the grieving process of the family. Truly I can't say enough good things about this funeral home. They've thought of everything. I mean, their bathrooms have mouthwash dispensers!! They even arranged all of our photos for us and then packed everything up and delivered it back to the house for us once everything was said and done. A+ service from Nolan Fidale. A beautiful property, with beautiful people, and beautiful service.

Top Notch Service!…read more I've been meaning to write a review for Nolan Fidale for months now. You never really expect to write a review about a funeral home or funeral services, since the need to use this type of service only happens rarely in one's life. Aside from losing my mother in late 2022, the experience of dealing with Andrea and her professional staff was as pleasant as I could have imagined. At the moment my mother passed, I contacted Andrea at Nolan Fidale at recommendation from my sister. Andrea immediately offered her condolences, was kind, warm, helpful and informative during our first call. She dispatched her team to pick up my mom immediately. Once they arrived, they were so kind, patient and professional. After dealing with having my mother being picked up by the Nolan Fidale team, Tim took over and handled our arrangements. I can't begin to describe how easy this process was, albeit painful, dealing with Andrea and then Tim. He was delightful and professional at every step throughout the process. Tim guided dad and me through the process of cremating my mother and crafting a wonderful memorial in her name. This was the proper way to say goodbye to mom, for now, and to remember her life and legacy for what it was and what it will be. I can't recommend Nolan Fidale enough. Their dedication to providing compassionate and seamless service is unmatched.
