The staff at VanderPlaat were low key and extremely attentive. Since my mom has Alzheimer it was…read moreonly my siblings and me involved. The cost's involved were reasonable. But the way we where handled is best summed up by gentle courtesy. Our Funeral director "Gary" was extremely efficient without rushing us along. He had answers to our questions and his questions help elicit thoughtful responses from us. He kinda knew what we needed to ask and if we didn't he would lead us into that area. Although he was dealing with a very serious matter he never let us get so far off topic as to drag out the important work that needed to be done. The actual viewing was exactly as described. NOTHING was a problem, the staff was always visible and available but not in the way. Really you could do no better. A death in the family really is the worst, but i can heartily recomend Vander Plaat in your time of need

I talked with many different funeral directors and the area and we're glad we decided to go with the Pizzis. Michael fully supported us in carrying out my father's wishes: no embalming, a closed casket Catholic funeral mass, and our family accompanying him to the cremation. He patiently answered our questions throughout the process, and showed up with things we needed but hadn't prepared - a cross for the casket, a sign in guestbook for the memorial, a grave marker for his burial site. I also felt better knowing that my dad would stay at the Pizzi's funeral home in Northvale until the mass and cremation, rather than being sent to other facilities or funeral homes. We felt cared for and supported by the Pizzis throughout this process.

I've been to many funerals and, unfortunately, have had to arrange several myself. The McCorrys are everything they claim to be and more: kind, tactful, fair, and deeply understanding. They went above and beyond to help me make everything beautiful yet affordable, at a time when I was already devastated and struggling financially after losing my mom unexpectedly, at a time I had no work, during COVID. They worked with her burial benefits whereas the place mom had always wanted to be attended to (like many Cuban American from Union City) refused. Their compassion was not just professional -- it was human. In an industry where that can feel rare, the McCorrys stand out as extraordinary. I will never forget their kindness and will never go anywhere else. And I'm sure Mom would agree!

My mother passed away suddenly a couple of weeks ago. Myself, my sister, nor my father never had the misfortune of having to make funeral arrangements before. On top of being emotional, we felt helpless and confused; thankfully Feeney's made the process as painless and easy as possible for us. We met with Dave, the director, and were given simple worksheets to help us brainstorm how we wanted to memorialize my mother. He talked us through several options, helped us write her obituary for "The Record," and aided us in solidifying all our plans. When it came time for the wake, I could not believe how much Feeney's went above and beyond for us. We never spoke of any extras, so I was not expecting more than a simple prayer card and sign in book. In addition to that, they also provided a large signature board, a blown up photo of my mother fit for hanging on the wall, a large photo collage display, a brochure full of pictures and a mind-blowing origami style card that folded 4 times over revealing different photos, as well as the poem we chose for the prayer card. This card was a beautiful, wonderfully unexpected touch. Throughout both the ceremonies the staff were so courteous, always asking us how everything was and if we needed anything. Everyone was extremely helpful. The day after the wake, we decided to have a short celebration of my mother's life. It began with a very touching and well put together montage of photos converted into a DVD which we were able to keep. Norma, the celebrist (non-religious) speaker, did a great job with the eulogy from the simple timeline that we emailed her - she even stopped to play one of my mom's favorite songs. Losing a loved one is an extremely emotional and trying experience, and Feeney's not only made the process as easy as possible for us, but went the extra mile to make sure our last memories were beautiful and pleasant. I never thought I'd be writing a review for a funeral home, but this one made such an impact on me that I want to publicly praise it. I hold Feeney's in high regard and absolutely reccommend their services.
