From the owner: Our Pre-Planning Services make it easy for you to get your express wishes down in writing, ensuring…read morethat you have the kind of memorial service you truly desire and that your friends and loved ones can have total peace of mind that they are adhering to your wishes. We host Burial Services that convey both the solemnity of the occasion, but also the joy that comes from celebrating the life of a dear loved one. We are happy to attend to all aspects of the service, and we invite our guests to linger as long as they wish, fully enjoying a special and intimate time with friends and family. For those who choose it, we also offer Cremation Services; cremation can be a meaningful way in which many families mark the death of a loved one. We offer services tailored to honor those who are military service members and veterans, as well.

This is a small cemetery with very few open plots left. I only took photos of the old section but…read morethe newer areas make up 7/8 of the cemetery. The old section of the cemetery is rather beautiful and I've seen dates into the early 1800s. I decided to review this cemetery today because I know that a lot of cemeteries can be very strict about planting and leaving items on the head stones and it can be frustrating to find a cemetery that allows you the freedom to honor your loved ones how you see fit. This cemetery has the loosest rules of any in the area that we looked at. You are free to plant what you wish in front of the stone. Silk flowers, miniature statues, balloons, photos, and solar night lights are some of the other items I've seen here. Just keep in mind that anything you put there is going to need to withstand the elements and if it blows away it will most likely meet the mower.

As professionals entrusted with arranging a memorial service for a young person in our care, we were searching for a funeral home that would treat this child (and everyone involved) with dignity, compassion, and respect. From the moment we walked into Prospect Memorial, we knew we had found exactly that. Kim welcomed us into a private space where we could gather our thoughts and discuss every detail without feeling rushed. She has a remarkable ability to make people feel seen and supported during unimaginable circumstances. Throughout the entire planning process, she met us with patience, kindness, and genuine empathy. We later learned that Kim's background as a nurse has clearly shaped the way she cares for families. Her compassion extends far beyond logistics. She thoughtfully guided us through decisions we never wanted to have to make, offering recommendations that honored this child's unique life and circumstances, including helping us find an appropriate cemetery and coordinating beautiful floral arrangements. What I'll remember most is the way Kim cared not only for the child we were honoring, but also for those of us carrying the responsibility of planning the service. She repeatedly reminded my colleagues and me that our hearts were in the right place and that our efforts mattered. Those words may seem small, but during an incredibly heavy time, they meant more than I can express. The service itself was beautiful. The funeral home is immaculate, modern, and thoughtfully designed, creating a peaceful environment for remembrance. Every member of the staff was attentive, respectful, and quietly ensured that everything unfolded seamlessly. They allowed us to focus on honoring this young life instead of worrying about the countless details behind the scenes. I sincerely hope I never find myself in a position where I need to plan another child's funeral. But if I ever need funeral services for a loved one, personally or professionally, I would not hesitate to return to Prospect Memorial. Kim and her entire team provided extraordinary care during one of the most difficult moments imaginable, and I will always be grateful for the compassion they showed to everyone involved. I hope this review conveys even a fraction of the gratitude we feel toward Kim and her team. They helped make an impossible task just a little more bearable, and that is something I'll never forget.

I believe he is one of the owners, but Ryan has personally helped a great deal with all arrangements and made these sad days a little less hard on everyone with how much help he has been.

It was in the fall so they could not guarantee it would be done that year due to it getting colder but it would be done the following year. Since I live out of state I asked for them to call me when it was completed and they took down my information and wrote a note to call me. Fast forward to early next summer and I haven't heard anything. I emailed multiple times and called but no one responded to my emails or answered the phone. When I was in Connecticut visiting I had to go to the cemetery to check and see if the engraving was done and it was, but no one from Ciarlo had let me know like they were supposed to. That being said, the engraving looks great. My interaction with them in-house when I paid for the engraving was nothing over the top. Just basic interaction. If you're looking for above and beyond I would go elsewhere.

That is twice what I paid in New Britain for exactly the same services 2 years ago. Included in that fee is $500 to take the information to take your business.

After a second monthly check arrived I called Social Security to let them know of my mothers passing and this was the first they had heard about it.
