When we arrived at the funeral home, and were greeted by Carol at the front desk. She was very kind & was helpful despite being busy. She was the only staff member that we encountered that was compassionate. It just went downhill from there. We were then introduced to Caitlyn, who lacked any customer service skills. When we asked to go into the room, she was hesitant to let us in. This all happened well after the start time, so we were not inconveniencing them. At the end of the night, we lost track of time & she came barging into the room. She announced that it was past 8pm & yelled at us to leave. I was actually embarrassed for her. There's a way to politely ask guests to leave, this was handled very poorly. Our family also purchased light snacks for our guests. That included a tray of cookies & unripened fruit. The cost for the low quality "snacks" they provided was outrageous. We were told that we could not bring outside food as their insurance did not cover it. But low & behold, another party arrived with outside food & were allowed to bring it in. Thankfully our second night for visitation went a lot better. Different staff were on this night & were very kind. In all, our experience at Jerrett was unfavourable. Despite our grieving, we could not look past the disrespectful encounters with certain staff. They could definitely use some more training.

I did take it a notch down by 2…read morestars just because many experience with arranging funeral seemed to be more of an upscale than an explanation. So it's probably not the first place you want to visit but when the time comes, something's got to happen. I have been here for a few funeral arrangements and regular visits. When arranging funerals, there was a small conference room where the death certificate is provided to the funeral home and the options for coffins and even how they arrange funeral ceremonies. Their staff are aware of different cultures and a Filipino staff was assigned because its tradition to eat next to the coffin and celebrate life (not my thing but a first). The organizer provided us pallbearers at hourly rates but really didnt explain that we could bring our own or have our own guest carry the coffin - again we didnt know and they did not explain they just told us what we needed. Hence I dropped it one star. So if you're going to arrange a funeral, maybe not this location, you'll find yourself lawn mowed with options while youre mourning. There really should be a consumer protection for people in this emotional state. The facility is quite grand with high ceilings. But when you return to use the washroom and visit your loved ones, the facility must have forgotten to lock their door and were not allowing their patrons who bought plot and coffin to use the washroom (come on!). Seemed snooty and makes the location overall less accessible for all population. The grounds are kept, but there is not much done for plant theft (YES! PLANT THEFT). I dont endorse stealing from people and stealing from the dead. Bad karma. But there is little done here when plants are robbed as we experienced our own arrangements destroyed to nothing (because the plants were stolen). Dropped another star here. Ways to save money, you can pre buy your plot and even arrange your double stacked plot. It's one way to fight inflation. Hoses are available all around, and signage are everywhere. After this experience....definitely not buying any future plots or arranging events here. Sorry not sorry.

I did mention that the maintenance of the graveyard is really good in my last review... well my dad recently told me that during a visit in the past, we came by in the morning, and by the time my uncle's family visited later that day, our flowers were already missing. I'm not sure if they are so on top of maintaining the place that they already threw out our flowers before the end of the day or someone took it. But who takes flowers for the dead anyways?! We also notice the tombstone for our family and others are sliding slightly off center from the base.... so we'll have to send them a note to see if they can shift it back to the center. This year we are trying something different. We bought potted flowers and planted it on the ground next to the grave. Let's see on our next visit for Father's day if it's still there or alive. Likely unrelated though, I did just read a recent news article that there has been a string of thefts across 8 cemeteries including this one for valuable jewelry (especially inside mausoleum compartments). So those who have above ground urns or compartments, might want to check their niches or reconsider including any valuables inside.
