I had the unfortunate experience of losing both parents 3 weeks apart about 3 years ago. My sister…read moreand I used this funeral home for the second funeral after having a bad experience with another funeral home for the first. Paul Sheridan showed a lot of compassion, guided us through the myriad choices, and then took on as much of the detail work as he could. At one point, he showed a lot of integrity by pointing out a mistake I was about to make. Eventually he convinced me. He turned out to be right. I appreciate now that he didn't follow the maxim that "the customer is always right". Grief does funny things to your head and he knew it. Months after the ceremony we brought my parents' ashes to the Veterans Cemetary. Paul insisted on handling the arrangements and stayed through the entire ceremony. We appreciate that he and his staff made a horrible time much easier to bear. (I realize that it took 3 years to write this review, but I'm finally able to do so without the memories coming back.)

The Watson Funeral home handled the funeral services for both my mother, father and other relatives…read moreover years. Most recently, my 100 year old Mother who passed at my home, out of state. During difficult times Mr. Watson made all the arrangements with the local, family run funeral home to prepare Mom and coordinate her flight back to RI to be put to rest with Dad and her family. Bill also took care of all the details in planning and conducting the service. If you are ever in the need of services of a funeral home/director I would always recommend Mr. Watson and the Watson Funeral Home for respectful, organized and professional service, especially during the very difficult challenges we face during this horrible pandemic.

If you come here for typical services rendered, such as burying or…read morememorializing a loved one, then you are probably OK. I would caution you not to go outside the lines with the short-tempered and stressed out owner William Watson, because you don't know what will set him off. I contacted him to verify a burial of a family member whom I know was served there. Typically, if the deceased is someone whom they have previously served most mortuaries will cooperate with you to verify what is public information on death records and obituaries. Not Mr. Watson. He was uptight when I called the first time, the next, even worse, refusing to work with me. When I disconnected the call, he called back immediately to chew me out on a voice message. After all, I wasn't bringing him any new business! We all know that attitude is poor public relations and will do nothing for business. Many of the mortuaries in Rhode Island are family-owned for decades, like Skeffington, and the principles there are aging and rigid. You have many other good choices. Go somewhere else!

This is such a beautiful cemetery! I am blessed that my family members are laid to rest here,…read morebecause I know how well this place is being up kept, and how well they make sure the graves and grass are always up to par. And this cemetery is maintained by very nice people. Everyone who works here that I have encountered or even watched I noticed how gentle and caring they are with the grounds. I've been coming here for as long as I can remember and I always remember just how clean everything always ways. I believe in order to bury your family member here they have to be Catholic, just something to keep in mind. Consider this cemetery for any passing family members. I know this is such a tough topic, and it was a little hard for me to write, but I know it will be worth it for others.
