Complete ripoff, headstone soaked in all the rain water and has two different colors because of the water, years later it never dried. Mom's Bronze plate faded after only 3 years while constantly cleaning and maintaining it. Spoke with the owner Gary who promised to get this issue resolve but never did. I ended up getting my grandmothers bronze name plate done through the cemetery and Gary had the audacity to ask me why I didn't go to him. The guy is very insensitive and a complete jerk to ask me that question at such a tough time all while knowing I was not happy with his work. Do not use this place they are a rip off!!!

Upon completing the forms, digitally with digital signature , as the forms instructed. Upon emailing the completed forms, Jack called me to tell me "you need to do better" and argued with me on the digital signature provided, again as the form instructed. I was then instructed that the forms needed to be filled out in pen and ink, scanned and emailed. I was also instructed that the Broward Country release form needed to be sent to the address at the bottom of that from. Again, I complied with Jack's request. Jack then called me to yell at me for sending the form to Broward when my father was not yet deceased, which he already knew from our previous conversations. He then proceeded to accuse me of lying that I told him that my father was here and then there, deceased and then not deceased. The best party of my experince with this company and man came when he said they would refuse their serices to me and my family./ Beware as this man and the organization, he gets confused easily and then attempts to berate belittle and blame you when you follow his instructions.

I searched several companies before choosing this one to assist with my father's burial service…read more The location was good being that it is across the street from a restaurant. Everything went fine up until cremation. My husband and I arrived around 7:45 AM to ID the body. My mother chose a photo urn from the company. I told Tony that morning that I purchased something to hold some ashes also, and I wanted them to put a small amount aside for me. I told him to write it down so it would be done. He said he would tell the person doing the cremation. Today I was told his name is Lazaro. This past Saturday my mother went to pick up the ashes and she was only given the photo urn. My request for ashes for my necklace was not completed. I am deeply saddened by this issue because I thought I was going to have a piece of him to keep with me forever. My dad died in a span of five days. So far the only solution offered was bringing my mom's urn back. They mentioned it wasn't written in the contract. I bought the necklace after I decided to use the company. Also whether I bought the necklace before or after is irrelevant as the cremation had not taken place yet. I even inquired about a necklace purchase from Maspons. Maybe my request was not completed because I didn't buy it from them. Again, I asked Tony to notate it at 7:45 AM. How is the family supposed to move forward by making me come back to the funeral home and dealing with an past hurdle? I am a teacher and finally decided to come back to work because I thought I was past the next difficult thing and could remain composed for my students. Apparently not, because although my father died on October 11th, still is still no peace, not even for him. This is unacceptable.

I contacted the funeral home from MA as I had to rush and make funeral preparations, He described the price plans to me with no pressure and agreed to exactly what my family wanted, at no time did try to upsell us or anything like that. When my dad passed soon after Eric was extremely helpful over the phone and rushed to pick my dad up. Once I arrived in Fla we met in person in person and signed the documents and he very kindly explained the complex Fla process for a cremation. Everything went well and once he had all the legal clearances he kept me informed. Very kind regarding payment, he did not reuire payment until all the legal clearances were in place, so he put no pressure on my faily at all. Everything happened exactly as he told me from day one. I was treated with kindness, professionalism and compassion. They were not the cheapest around, but as a friend told me 'lo barato sale caro'. They were worth every penny.

So my first hand experiences here were not to be present for any services but to plan for them. When I walked in, I was given a warm and friendly greeting, then introduced to one of the sales staff. I questioned and he gave answers with regards to cremations, burial trust, religious or other services, floral arrangements and obituaries. I think I have this correct that you may contract through various companies which share in the use of Broward Burial & Cremation facilities and each of these companies specializing in certain matters such as price or lavishness ceremonies. Though I haven't contracted for anything as of yet, I remain well impressed with their offerings and capabilities.

This is part of a 2-part updated review. Please see the entire review…read more We ended up having no choice but to use this funeral home after all the harassment and abuse. In the days immediately following my dad's death, we had had too many family members trying to influence our decision. Burial or cremation. We ended up waiting too long and had no choice except to cremate my dad. We had my poor father's remained shipped to us and when I received the package I wanted to absolutely DIE. His cremains were leaking out of the pathetic interior box they used. Opened it further, his cremains were sticking to the clear packing tape on the exterior box and leaking through the corners of the shipper. I only have the ability to talk about this now because it's been some time, my sister handled most of the arrangements and never even saw the box because it was shipped to me. I have worked in the funeral industry since my father passed away. And I am absolutely appalled. A clear plastic liner should have been used to hold my father's ashes inside the black box inside the shipper. I have never, ever seen one NOT used. So my father ended up being spread through Fedex's shipping network. I have seriously wondered if the cremains I received were even my fathers. With no way to prove it, I can only hope that they are. I will never ever forget how horrible things were handled. My father should not have leaked out of the box. And the lady handling the arrangements in their office was horrible, I hope to God she was fired. She verbally assaulted me over the phone. I hope God punishes her.
