Recently, I decided to design a stone for myself (I don't plan on going anywhere soon) but thought it would be a good idea to create something I would like. When I went over to discuss this I met Lou's son Louie and he was just as professional and knowledgeable as his father. Their draft person sketched my design to perfection, the stone was etched, and it is now in the cemetery. Monti & Sons gives great customer service and are both master craftsmen. This small business is highly recommended!

I was very disappointed. When a family member or friend passes, all we have left are memories and…read moreprayers. When I arrived at the funeral home my first intention was to kneel at my mother's casket. But, I could not do that because there was no kneeler. Two of my friends noticed the same thing. I asked the three employees at the funeral home if there was no kneeler because of covid, and I told them last week the CDC reversed its guidelines. The gentleman who answered me said he knew that, but business owners could make their own decisions about their business. None of the three people made a motion to get a kneeler, and none of them asked me to wait while they got one. So I told them I was very disappointed. There was no mask mandate at Slattery. There was no social distancing at Slattery. No one asked for anyone's vaccination status. No one asked if anyone had been in contact with someone who had covid. The mourners hugged, kissed, shook hands, and were within inches of each other at times. So, why was there a concern about someone getting sick from kneeling in front of my mother's casket versus standing at her casket? My mother was a lifelong Catholic until she was no longer able to attend mass. There was a crucifix behind her casket. Her funeral service was at a Catholic church, where we kneeled as we prayed during the mass. Why weren't we given the same opportunity to kneel and pray at my mother's casket? I attended a wake this year, also in massachusetts, and there was a kneeler. I personally feel it was disrespectful to not have a kneeler for those who chose to use it. Anyone who did not choose to use it could stand.

Sara, who handled Luca's intake was kind and compassionate; Derek, who managed Luca's care thereafter was diligent and thorough. Luca was picked up by Final Gift from our home-vet, then transported to their facility. My wife and I picked him up 2 days later. Final Gift placed his cremains into a beautiful, well-made, bamboo urn that was provided complimentary, the urn was then placed inside a blue velvet bag. We purchased a hand-made urn and transferred Luca once home and found inside, his cremains were placed into a blue silk pouch bag. Such quality and such care given to our cherished pet. We are so thankful for Final Gift (this is the third beloved rottweiler of ours that they have cremated over more than 20 years). There is perhaps no greater gift that you can give to your pet. Now Luca will also be with us forever. We highly recommend Final Gift!! Chuck & Beverly Caffarella

Jeff is not only an amazing funeral director, he is a kind, compassionate, thoughtful, wonderful human being. Even though we'd arranged for pre-planned services many years ago, Jeff treated us as if we were writing a check today! My father-in-law passed away at 6:00 in the morning in a nursing home. I received a call from Jeff at 7:30am telling me he's picked up dad, and he was safe in the funeral home. He arranged for a time that was convenient for us to come in much later that day to make Dad's final arrangements. I swear he works about 20 hours a day! While dad had done the original planning years ago, Jeff still helped us put together a service which was perfect for our family, and did everything we asked to honor the great man our father was. All the details were handled beautifully, and we didn't need to worry about a thing. Dad was very ill at the end of his life and had lost a significant amount of weight, so we were worried about how he would look for the calling hours. No worry needed. Jeff prepared our dad for burial expertly, and made him look like he was younger and healthier again. In fact, it was so comforting for us to say it looked like he was just taking a nap. Dad was a veteran, so Jeff arranged for a service with full military honors, which was so important to Dad, and meant so much to us. I cannot more highly recommend Jeff and Hays Funeral Home. The genuine care and concern he showed for all of us and his expertise in his craft created a beautiful memory for us rather than just a sad day of loss. Thank you Jeff, and Rachel, for all you did for us. We could not possibly be any more pleased with the services and burial. Thank you for creating a last memory of our Dad that we'll treasure forever. You have our lasting gratitude. The family of Gordon Maccabee

My father-in-law's funeral was at Duckett, they did a nice job. when my mother-in-law died, my…read morehusband wanted to have it at the same place because it was right down the street from where they lived. 2 years prior We met with a man from Duckett and planned/prepaid while she was in a nursing home, the man was lovely and explained everything to us and we paid. When my mother-in-law passed, we contacted Duckett, but the man we met with was no longer there., We met with a woman who said she was the director, she had a really difficult time locating our contract, but finally did. It was an odd meeting, and I felt like she was very new at this. The day of the funeral we arrived on time as the family, when we walked into the funeral home we couldn't find her or anybody, there was a janitor's door open, and a lot of cleaning supplies were still out in the hall. My family came in right behind us and brought it to our attention that there was no book for people to sign in so we had to look for the director ( took us 10 minutes to locate her) to ask her for the book and the stand. When my husband got up at the funeral to to speak, there wasn't anything for him to put his notes on. Again, I went looking for the director to ask her and she said she took the stand to put the sign in book on so she took the sign in book off and carry the stand to where my husband was speaking. It was odd, the entire ordeal was odd. Lastly, and I hate to bring this up, but my mother-in-law looked horrible. She had makeup caked on her and bright red lipstick. I couldn't in good faith recommend this place. Sorry

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.
