It is inevitable, no matter how hard we try to ignore it. And when it comes, even if it has been expected, it is the most terrible of experiences for those left behind. In that hour of need, when the hospital, nursing home, hospice nurse, or coroner asks who they should call to collect your loved one's remains, you could really not do better than to answer, "Please call Erie County Cremation Services (ECCS), we have made arrangements with them to handle everything." I was sadly in that position recently and so I have first hand, fresh, raw, experience on which to base this review. Several months ago my spouse was diagnosed with a terrible cancer and given a very poor prognosis. After that awful discussion about what they would want by way of arrangements, I knew that I had to find a funeral home to handle a direct cremation - the simplest possible disposition for a human body. I found ECCS somewhere online and contacted them via an email link on their website. The response was immediate, concise, professional, and considerate. A brief Q&A exchange followed until I was satisfied that I had all the information I needed. My spouse meanwhile, through their own strength and the phenomenal work of physicians at ECMC, defied the early dire predictions. That is a story for another time, but ultimately the disease was too diabolical, and my spouse's body could not keep it at bay any longer and they began to be cared for by Hospice Buffalo. I reached out again to ECCS and they picked up the conversation, after many months, without missing a beat. When the terrible day came and their services were needed they responded immediately and with the utmost professionalism. The paperwork (there is always paperwork) was handled smoothly, and my several last minute requests regarding notifications were all responded to immediately and professionally, even though they ultimately eliminate any public acknowledgement of ECCS's role. Funeral directors can be seen as out to get people in their time of need, but I did not find this to be the case ECCS at all. I was requesting the simplest possible approach to everything and there was no effort to upsell me or make me feel guilty for not doing more. I simply can't express strongly enough how positive my impression of ECCS is. One never wants to need their services, but they provide them with incredible professionalism.

The hall where the service took place was beautiful, besides sympathies, the most common thing I heard was about how great the place looked. They had a couple comfort animals running around and a staff member was always unobtrusively available. They made a wonderful slideshow out of the pictures we gave them. Digitized everything. The most touching part was a display they made, we had discussed interests, hobbies and such. They made a whole display out of the things we talked about with some pictures added on.

For a funeral home in which you would like to be taken care of at a very sad time, it is the worst experience I have ever had. They do not care about the fact you are saying goodbye to a loved one. I ordered a beautiful spray of flowers to be delivered, and when the flowers arrived, the funeral home sent the flowers back because they are not what they wanted. Even though it was the family's wishes for an full open casket, hours before the showing, they closed half of the casket and told us they would never leave it open (even though that is what we were told and planned). When confronting the problem, the owners were very disrespectful. Therefore I beg you to please avoid this place. Go someplace else and say your goodbyes and prayers at a funeral home that will take care of your wishes. This place ruined saying goodbye to a very special family member.

He personally answers ever phone call- not a staff member or a message recording. I have never met a more "at ease and calming" influence during such hard and troubled times as this fine outstanding pillar of the community man. They provided a very lovely wake and coordinated everything from start to finish with dignity and grace. I felt at the end as if I had also made a friend with John as he was that close to me and guiding during this time. His smile along and comforting demeanor will immediately provide you with confidence you made the right choice. The funeral home itself is "local and comfortable- simple and dignified". I am so grateful to this man at a most confusing and untimely time for maintaining a "calm among the storm of emotions". God Bless.

The workers were accommodating for anyone to speak up, come early for private viewing and plenty of water and tissues readily available for public use. The viewing room we were in was rather small but perfect for the small family crowd we had. I appreciated having a somewhat private room across the hall for those moments where you need a minute to be alone. The parking lot was small and became a bit of an issue during peak times. Also, because it's on the corner of several main roads, it's easy to pass if you aren't familiar with the area or to get lost in the tops plaza behind it.
