However, on the day of the funeral and cremation, we were notified by the company (at the crematorium) that they cannot proceed with the cremation because the proper paperwork as not received by the funeral home. Connie was the person placed in charge of processing our funeral as well as the paperwork. When we called Connie to ask what was happening, we were clearly in distress and Connie had raised her voice at us telling us she did not appreciate our tone. If a delay happened in your service for a member of your family, wouldn't you be distressed? Connie is an unfit candidate who can't handle frustrating situations. We are in further distress especially after how the funeral home and Connie had handled their jobs. There are so many other places to hold a funeral service, this is not even one you should consider.

There are numerous specialized transactions that need to happen when the services of a Funeral Home…read moreare needed - legal certifications, newspaper submissions, cemetery plots, planning of religious services - all kinds of arcane (or at least uncommon) details need to be tended to, under time pressure, when you are guaranteed not to be at your best. Finding a caring, well organized Funeral Director not only makes sure nothing is overlooked, but a consultation meeting also provides a checklist of the priority items that may need immediate attention. The Bryant family has been a part of the Wayland / Cochituate community for almost 50 years, and the connections they have built over that time are readily apparent. Their mixture of compassion and professionalism is a wonderful thing to find at a time when you need it most. Multiple generations of their family have come to the aid of multiple generations of our family, and their services are greatly appreciated.

There are simply no words that could ever fully express our family's gratitude for Lilly Darling…read more Over the past few months, our family experienced the unimaginable, we lost two loved ones, one in April and another in June. To have to walk through that kind of heartbreak twice in such a short period of time is something no family ever expects. Through it all, Lilly became so much more than a funeral director. She became a source of comfort, strength, guidance, and genuine love during the darkest moments of our lives. From the very first meeting, Lilly treated our family as if we were her own. She carried us through every step of the process with incredible kindness, compassion, patience, and grace. Every detail was handled with such care and professionalism that we never had to worry about whether something had been overlooked. She anticipated our needs before we even knew what to ask, offered thoughtful advice when we felt lost, and communicated with us every step of the way. In the middle of overwhelming grief, she gave us peace of mind. What touched us most and something our family will never forget is that Lilly was actually on vacation during one of our funerals. Most people would have understandably stepped away, but not Lilly. She made sure she was there for us anyway. That speaks volumes about the kind of person she is. She didn't see us as just another family she was helping, she genuinely cared. Knowing that she chose to be there for us, despite being on her own personal time, meant more than words can express. It made us feel seen, supported, and deeply cared for during one of the hardest days of our lives. Lilly has a rare gift. She combines extraordinary professionalism with an even more extraordinary heart. She showed our loved ones the dignity and respect they deserved and showed our family endless compassion at a time when we could barely function. She cried with us, encouraged us, celebrated the lives of our loved ones with us, and somehow made an impossible process feel a little less heavy. By the end of these past few months, Lilly no longer felt like someone we met through tragedy she truly felt like part of our family. We will always remember her kindness, generosity, unwavering support, attention to detail, and the love she poured into helping us honor the people we lost. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, Lilly. We will never forget everything you did for us. Cartwright Funeral Home is incredibly fortunate to have someone as exceptional as you. Anyone who has Lilly by their side during one of life's most difficult moments will be receiving the very best care imaginable.

Although the funeral home eventually agreed to refund and reprint the prayer cards, the overall lack of compassion, communication, and attention to detail made an already difficult time much harder. Based on our experience, I would not recommend Cartwright Funeral Home.
