From the very beginning, they treated us with so much kindness, patience, and genuine compassion--it truly felt like we were being cared for by family. In a time filled with heartbreak and confusion, they brought us comfort, guidance, and peace. Every detail was handled with such care and thoughtfulness, allowing us to focus on honoring our loved one instead of worrying about the process. They made something so heavy feel just a little bit lighter. There are truly no words that can express how grateful my family and I are. We will never forget the love and support they showed us. I wholeheartedly recommend Miraglia Funeral Home--because what they provide goes far beyond a service, it comes from the heart.

Deep Gratitude for Exceptional Care and Accommodations:…read more To the Management and Staff, the Houston family is writing to express our deepest, most sincere gratitude for the extraordinary care, professionalism, and comfort your team provided during one of the most difficult times for our family. Navigating the arrangements for a loved one is an incredibly heavy task, but the seamless accommodations and grace extended by J. Foster Phillips Funeral Home truly went above and beyond our expectations. From our very first interaction, your staff treated us not just as clients, but with the genuine warmth and respect of family. Every detail was handled with immaculate precision, and the environment you provided allowed us to focus entirely on honoring our loved one's memory without stress or worry. While the entire team deserves recognition, I must place a special spotlight on Erika Hinton. Erika is an absolute treasure, and her support was nothing short of exceptional. During moments when we felt overwhelmed, her calm presence, profound empathy, and meticulous attention to detail provided an immense sense of peace. She anticipated our needs before we even knew how to articulate them, handling every request with grace and a comforting reassurance that let us know we were in the best possible hands. Erika's dedication to her work and her genuine compassion for grieving families is rare and deeply admirable. She is a stellar representative of your funeral home. Please accept this note as a small token of our immense appreciation for everything you have done. You turned a period of profound sadness into a beautiful, dignified celebration of life, and we will never forget the kindness shown to us. With sincere gratitude, The Houston Family

As an only child my mother's passing in the hospital took me by surprise and I was suddenly hit…read morewith having to plan a service and burial for the first time in my life. One of my dear friends recommended Funeral Director, Jacqueline Sherman, who she worked with on multiple burials of her family members. Great referrals are priceless when you are going through emotional trauma and shock so you don't have to be shopping around with strangers while grieving. I didn't feel comfortable with the list the hospital gave me after I identified her body. I didn't even know how to shop for funeral services and what to look for so I was in for a crash course. I got a ton of advice from friends and relatives, and had to make decisions quickly to notify the hospital. I had several referrals to funeral homes but realized I hit the jackpot on meeting an outstanding professional and funeral director in Jacqueline Sherman. My friend went with me to meet with Ms. Sherman in her office and after that meeting there was no need to look further. As a business person I can spot a rockstar in her profession from a mile away. Ms. Sherman conveyed sincere warmth and care as I asked questions to understand the process and all the options to consider when burying a loved one. I didn't feel rushed and she patiently explained all the options available. I was also learning what a Funeral Director does before, during and after the burial process. They're a key person not only for planning the funeral service or cremation, but also for dealing with other institutions and government agencies. Ms. Sherman blew me away when she showed the extra care she puts into dressing the deceased and staging the service to give them a proper sendoff. She was also attentive to our family's needs regarding who was best to conduct the service and all the details for the service and the paperwork needed after the service. Her network of service providers was priceless for us. She always responded promptly or delegated the response if busy helping another client so I appreciated that. After my mother's funeral service, Ms. Sherman was kind enough to hold my hand through the final goodbye before my mother's body went off to the crematorium. I really appreciated her prayers and gentle care in getting me through that day. Ms. Sherman still responded promptly several months later when I needed other city paperwork for my mother's cremains to travel. What I love about her is that she is the consummate professional from A-Z in all her communications. Her colleagues were also quite supportive and helpful. Now that I know what a funeral director actually does, I highly recommend using the services of Jacqueline Sherman at Frank R. Bell Funeral Home. She is worth waiting for when you see how she presents the process and the services she and her colleagues can offer to meet your needs. Most importantly, when you see her creative skills as a funeral director who is a master at her craft, with many years of experience, you won't want to look any further! I had to wait several months to write this review and for things to settle down after my mother's passing. As a discerning business person, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you use the services of Jacqueline Sherman if you are looking for a Funeral Director in the New York Tri-state area. Don't hesitate to do that first intake meeting with her. You'll be glad you did!
