I can't say enough about the compassion and professionalism shown by Jorge Rivera Funeral Home. From the very first phone call, they treated my family with genuine care and understanding during one of the hardest times of our lives. They went above and beyond not only handling every detail with grace and efficiency, but doing so while navigating an incredible amount of family tension and emotion. They remained patient, calm, and kind through every conversation, always putting our loved one's memory and our family's needs first. Their guidance, empathy, and professionalism brought peace to a very chaotic and painful moment. I will always be grateful for the way they treated us not as clients, but as people who were grieving. Thank you, Jorge Rivera Funeral Home (especially Marcos) for your heart and your humanity. You made an unbearable time just a little bit easier. This was our 3rd funeral held here and every single time they have been outstanding. read more

I wanted to take this opportunity to commend Jorge Rivera Funeral Home for their compassionate, caring, understanding, and efficient service during such a difficult time. Their staff is truly the most attentive I have ever encountered when dealing with loss. We had the pleasure of working with Rosa, who was not only incredibly efficient but also resourceful when it came to handling every detail of the arrangements. She made our family feel welcome and at ease throughout the entire process. Everything was absolutely perfect from beginning to end. The professionalism exhibited by every member of the staff was impeccable, and their attention to detail ensured that the service was exactly what we hoped for. I highly recommend Jorge Rivera Funeral Home to anyone in need of these services. Their compassion and dedication to excellence make them stand out. Our family is truly grateful for all they did for us.

We lost our dad in January 2024 and then our mom in October 2024. Both times we used the services of Jorge Rivera Funeral Home and we have nothing but high praises for the way they treated my grieving family. It's hard enough losing a loved one let alone two in the same year. Both times we were treated with dignity and respect. Wesley and the team went out of their way to help us get through this difficult time. Can't thank them enough for their respect and human kindness. read more

A few weeks ago, we held my cousin's funeral at Jorge Rivera. She'd had insurance and her company assured payment, but the funeral director said that wasn't good enough. The morning of her burial, the director threatened to hold the body unless he was paid immediately. We were not strangers to this director as this was the 4th funeral from my family in the past year. He didn't try to work with us to arrange a payment; he immediately went to a threat. Her children ( 21-year-old twin daughters, and 18- and 27-year-old sons) were already distraught at their mother's unexpected death and had to endure unnecessary stress and disrespectful behavior. They spent the morning scrambling to find a way to arrange the immediate payment. Thankfully, we were able to secure payment, but the damage had been done. Once payment was secured, they proceeded to treat us callously. The funeral home representative at the cemetery was incredibly rude and didn't seem to know what she was doing. First, despite paying for a priest, we only had one at the funeral home, but not at the cemetery as expected. This was explained to us at the cemetery when it was too late for us to secure someone else to take the priest's place. Second, she didn't help distribute flowers at the burial claiming there were not enough (we had 4 wreaths). Family friends ended up pulling the flowers for us. Last, they didn't lower the casket until we asked despite the tradition of the casket being lowered to allow for flowers to be thrown. All of this was done with a haughty attitude towards a family that had just suffered a devastating loss. I post this review mostly because I'd hate to see any other family go through what we endured with them. No one should have to suffer that kind of stress in the midst of incredible grief. Please avoid this business if you wish to be treated with compassion and understanding during a challenging time. read more

Yelp is very generous that it does not include a ZERO rating on their grading scale. This funeral home was very inconsiderate during the peak of COVID-19 back in the Spring of 2020. As some have mentioned, if you have insurance or Medicaid that becomes a tedious process to deal with. We dealt with cash because it was going to be a very long ordeal. According to the staff member Wesley, he "was us doing a favor" by burying my dad during this Covid-19 first wave. My wife was highly upset when she heard these words come out of his mouth. I can go on for hours about all of the hiccups that we endured during this difficult time. On top of it all, my uncle had passed away 4 days prior and my cousins had their own headaches to do deal with. Make sure to stay clear unless you have no other option or Medicaid is your only solution. read more

We had my uncle's wake at this funeral home tonight and the directors, Aurora and Lydia, treated us terribly. When dealing with loss it is important that people are allowed the opportunity to mourn their loved ones with dignity and respect. Lydia and Aurora tried to control EVERYTHING even the last moments during which our family said goodbye to our uncle. I would never recommend this funeral home as the directors were constantly telling us to move out of the way, not to take water into the chapel (or hallway for that matter), to not speak loudly, etc. There is a lack of professionalism here. My cousin touched my uncle and one of them yelled at her and told her that she "couldn't touch the body". This place is deplorable. DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR BUSINESS. read more

I unfortunately had to use the services of this funeral home and when the Manager says "I got paid, its not my problem now" it makes you wonder how unethical this place is. I thought you were in the business to help people, not just to take their money? Marcos acted as if he cared so much about my family until we made a payment. The moment we paid, he dodged us at every opportunity he had. The manager was NEVER in the office and no one could ever tell us when he'd be back. How is this possible? I should have known better when I walked in and the woman director says "I don't want to deal with these people"...yeah your walls are pretty thin and we all heard you and don't worry, you never will have to deal with us again. This funeral home cares about one thing only and that's money. I wish someone warned me about this place. I hope no one has to go through what these people made my family go through. Stay away. read more

Great place to arrange funerals they do most of the running around for you when it comes to picking flowers caskets and arranging the hearse. Everyone in my family has had funerals gotten here and only very convenient and affordable. read more

The funeral home is beautiful but the physical dwelling lacks the necessary peace for the deceased and all arriving to pay respects to family. The levels of disrespect while seeking the necessary solace and tranquillity for the pain and loss rose to extreme levels due to the consistency and persistence of Aurora and Nidia trying to control the behaviors of all in attendance. For example, no water is allowed. No touching your deceased relative is allowed. No talking in vestibule areas is allowed and the list goes on. You pay the expensive fees and then everyone in attendance is subjected to the Nidia Aurora Madness. Your deceased family members, family and friends deserve better. read more

My Mother passed away last Sunday and we used this funeral home since it was close to the Crematorium. The place is clean, spacious and the rooms are nicely laid out. However everything else was a mess. The mic they gave us, all you can hear was static, couldn't hear the person speaking. We ended up shutting it off and talking really loud so folks in the back could hear. I asked if they had speakers so we can have prayers playing softly in the background, we were told there is a Smart TV that we can use. The Smart TV did not work. We played the prayers on a cell phone, placed it in the a vase to amplify sound. We paid $400 for cosmetology and dressing. I dressed my own Mother. Despite showing them a picture of my Mother, they made my mother look darker and the make up was horrible. We could not recognize our Mother. And anytime we needed anything we had to hunt down the person in charge of our funeral services. We did the best we could with what we were dealt with. My mother dedicated her life to us and we could not even give her a decent funeral. She deserved much better than that! read more
