Before my dad died Roland met with him and talked about what his funeral would look like…read more The people at Compassionate Funeral Care, did not only help my mom and my dad with their arrangements but on the day of Dad's funeral Roland said the kindest words about my dad. Even though they met only a couple of times he spoke like he knew the man for years. We had planned a small service so when over 60 people showed up we were concerned with the numbers. Roland and his staff responded with ease and professionalism. I would highly recommend Compassionate Funeral Care to anyone in need of their service. I know my family will use them in the future.

Greenridge Cemetery is located in downtown Saratoga Springs, NY and it's the oldest cemetery in the…read moreCity. Many of the graves and mausoleums are the final resting places for the founding fathers of the city of Saratoga, and you'll see a lot of Civil War gravesites as well. There is a tremendous sense of history as you drive in past the large granite mausoleums and statuary in tribute to the soldiers, and work your way down the winding roadways towards the newer section of the cemetery. They keep this place in beautiful shape with well-trimmed grass, hedges, and flowers throughout. This is always my last stop when I'm in Saratoga Springs, and I spend a few minutes visiting with my Mom before boarding the plane to return to Tampa.

I have used the services of Simple Choices twice now over the last 7 years. Each time, Roy and his…read morestaff have been professional and compassionate. I felt at ease from first contact that my loved one (and I !) would be treated with care and respect. I appreciated the prompt response from the moment I reached out. Without hesitation, I would recommend Simple Choices for end of life arrangements.

I'm a year late writing this review, but it was recently the first anniversary of the death in our…read morefamily and it reminded me that we intended to share our glowing review of Simple Choices but didn't get to it in the months immediately after. At the time, I called around to at least 4-6 different places in the Albany area to understand the cremation options available, at a very stressful time obviously. Roy was BY FAR the most compassionate, patient, responsive, and clear about what to expect. Seriously, you just don't want to deal with the impersonal or callous attitudes that came across in my first phone call with some of the other places that offer cremation services. There wasn't even the smallest hint of anything other than the ideal level of genuine helpfulness from Roy. On top of that the prices were extremely fair, and the environment and decor in the Simple Choices funeral home is very comforting. Looking back, it also feels good to have supported a business & team that is committed to doing the right thing for people at their worst times. They live out ALL the values stated on their website. Oh, and I should also mention just in case anyone's looking for this detail in a review - our family isn't Christian, and Roy was nothing but pure kindness and understanding on adjusting the decor in the funeral home for our small family viewing. Roy & team, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you so much for your excellence at serving us at such a difficult time. If we could leave you a 6 star review we would!
