HORRIBLE! Recently my mother passed away and before she…read morepassed, she made her funeral arrangements and advised myself on what she wanted during her services. After she passed I was working with someone at the Northbridge location to put her services in motion. During this setup time, Jackman informed me that a friend of my mothers had called them (an hour after TOD) with concern about her service dates, stating certain dates wouldn't work for the services because it was her daughters wedding. What friend would call the funeral home and family members advising which dates wouldn't work for them? Then the funeral home tells me to keep that in mind when selecting the dates. So, We agreed on a date and was told to send over a picture for her obituary. While waiting for a return call, I advised family and friends near and far about her service date and times. I did not hear from Jackman the rest of the day as promised. That evening someone on social media advised me the dates had been changed. I advised that it must have been a mistake. NOPE! Jackman Funeral Home let my drug addict brother walk in and change the whole service arrangements without even calling to confirm with myself and the rest of the family. Needless to say my phone has been ringing off the hook with complaints and demands of refunds for plane tickets and gas money from people who traveled hours to come to my mother's services. I tried several times to reach management by phone and email. I did get a response via email days later stating " After we spoke I spoke with your brother who explained to me that you told him to handle mom's arrangements. After he spoke with your grandfather they collectively decided the **th was best. It was very important to mom to have her ashes present at her service, thus making the decision easier for the family.I was also under the impression he was going to speak with you last night. I feel badly but the arrangements have been made of the **th and it's now going to be in this weeks paper. I sent you a copy of mom's obituary yesterday for input and corrections. I take it that email didn't reach you? If you'd like to call me I'm here. Again, I'm sorry for the confusion." None of this information was true. She took his word over mine and disregarded my feelings and the law at this very difficult time. I had already warned them of issues with my brother and I was her legal proxy. I am still getting calls regarding this matter when I should be greiving for my mother. And no I never received any email regarding her obituary, and I had no say in what was written. Awful just awful. I would never use these guys again. Seriously awful. They didn't care and they have not tried to rectify any of this. Just a sorry for the confusion?

My husband and I have only been in Milford for eight years, and we were unfamiliar with the funeral…read morehomes in the area. When my husband passed away in May, I had to scramble to find a place to handle the cremation. Buma-Sargeant Funeral Homes was mentioned by several friends and kept coming up in my research. I made the call, and it was definitely the right call. Buma-Sargeant went out of their way to make me feel comfortable and taken care of. My husband was what is called a direct cremation. There is no funeral, memorial or viewing. The interaction with the funeral home is limited. But that never stood in the way of them helping me through a difficult process. I spoke with Jim Burma twice, once before they came for my husband - explaining step by step what to expect when they came to pick my husband up. And again, when a few details needed clarification. He was kind and caring. He never once rushed me or made me feel less of a client because we chose direct cremation. His staff was equally compassionate and professional. When I went to pick up my husband's ashes, I got there far later than I was supposed to and they appeared to be closed. However, I encountered Jim's mother who actually lives in the house. I don't know for sure, but I believe she is retired from the business. That did not stop her from taking the time to bring me my husband's ashes. She also took time out of her own day to talk with me. We shared some of our mutual experiences with the loss of a beloved spouse. She told me about the things that helped her cope. She went above and beyond simple courtesy to a place of genuine compassion. As a retired pastor, I have been on "the other side" of the process when a family loses someone they love. I knew what to expect, but that doesn't change the impact when it is your loved one. My experience, over the years, with funeral homes has generally been positive. But at Buma-Sargeant, being the people who take care of our loved ones on the last day of their life is not a job. It is a calling. And Buma-Sargeant embraces their calling with a grace and compassion that makes the process less devastating. I thank each person at Buma-Sargeant who took good care of me, my husband and my family. Calling them was one of the best decisions I have ever made.

I cannot say enough praise about Buma-Sargent Funeral Home! My family for years has always used the…read moreservices of First Sargeant's and then Buma Funeral Home. Several years ago, my wife and I decided we wanted to be proactive with our final wishes. We wanted to save the burden not only for us, but our family as well. We contacted Betsey Buma who sent Leo Dube to meet with us at our home. Leo was fantastic. He walked us through many options, and we picked the one that fit us best. Unfortunately, my wife passed away this past 29th of December. At the hospital it was such a relief not to have to go through all the hassle dealing with what to do with her remains. I was able to say we have arrangements with Buma Funeral home. The next morning, I contacted Buma Funeral Home. I spoke with Betsey Buma who had me speak with her son Jim. Everything was handled per our wishes. Such a relief!! Every part of our wishes and then some were met. Jim and staff were so helpful every step of the way. Jim went way beyond expectations especially helping with The Veteran's Association on the final location for my wife and my resting place. I cannot find the words to express the care I experienced using Buma Funeral Home! THANK YOU, Jim and Betsey Buma from the very bottom of my heart!

Appalled by the sales rep, Camille's, demeanor, attitude, and overall stature. She was abrupt, made…read moresnide remarks, and basically had zero respect for our family. We asked if we could have calling hours for a $15k funeral between 3-5p and she had the audacity to say "well that would mean I'd need to stay late". She had zero respect nor empathy. To top it off the building is in rough shape- the carpets are gross. I'd HIGHLY suggest looking for another establishment to help guide you through this taxing time- there are plenty of better funeral homes in the near vicinity with better facilities, customer service, and pricing.

I have gone through this process before with extended family members, and the way he cared for my mother still leaves me speechless. He made such a painful transition feel as comforting and peaceful as possible. No matter how many times we called, he answered with patience, compassion, and reassurance that helped keep our family calm during an incredibly difficult time. I would never wish this kind of loss on anyone, but if you ever find yourself needing these services, I wholeheartedly recommend them. Their care, compassion, and professionalism truly make a difference and go a long way.

Settling estates can be complicated and time-consuming but surprisingly Holt's fail to acknowledge…read morethis. Maybe they'll learn from this review. My previous experiences with them had been completely positive but that was with the previous owners - the Holt family. Under these new owners, the team provided attentive service and seemed to truly care but soon after the funeral, the owners resorted to rude and threatening phone calls. I honestly thought they had hired a collection agency! In the end, they made it perfectly clear that they were only interested in the money which as I mentioned can frequently take some time with complicated estates. If you are bereaved and grieving, then be warned and look for a service home with more integrity.

Hills and crosses…read more St Denis Cemetery is affiliated with St Denis Church which is just down the street. It's an interesting graveyard that isn't especially old or filled with grand and massive monuments but it does have a whole variety of different crosses as well as some fairly large and unique gravestones.

The hill gives the graveyard an interesting perspective and it must had been difficult to erect some of the larger stones on the steep hill. Most of the gravestones were from the mid 19th century or newer but there were a few worn gravestones that were impossible to read that might have been around before the St Denis Cemetery was official opened.
