Recently we had a service for my mother and once again, they went above and beyond to make an incredibly difficult time as easy as possible. My family and I worked with Angie to arrange the service, and she was professional, attentive and empathetic. She provided me with her personal contact information and made herself available at any time to answer questions and help to navigate all of the final directives. She not only provided recommendations for the services, she personalized everything to tribute my mother, down to florist recommendations. Angie, I can not thank you enough for guiding us through such a difficult time and providing us with a perfect experience. I know my mother would have loved everything, and she could be very difficult to please.

My son was born premature and didn't make it. I didn't know anything about funeral services, but…read moreIvonne's helped us through the difficult process. They didn't charge for services and wouldn't take a dime over the price of the urn, which means they paid for the paperwork fees themselves, but they treated us like we were spending top $. But the 5 stars are not for the free service, but for being amazingly accommodating and thoughtful; Cliff even offered to bring the remains of my son home, so we wouldn't have to go over there again. They know we don't have any family here, so their fantastic service was not motivated by the prospect of future business.

[MY REVIEW IS FOR THE EVERGREEN CEMETERY IN NEW HAVEN VERMONT BUT YELP BEING YELP MERGED IT WITH…read moreTHE EVERGREEN CEMETERY IN NEW HAVEN CONNECTICUT.] Evergreen is a normal lawn-type cemetery. Lanes through it are walkable or driveable. There are rows of neat headstones. The grass is well trimmed. But there's one particularly interesting plot: Timothy Clark Smith. Mister Clark designed and rigged his own tomb in an attempt to prevent his nightmare of an undesirable outcome. He installed a set of stairs underneath a large square capstone beside his burial mound, and is said to have been buried with a bell in his hand and a breathing tube. The most noticeable piece is the horizontal window he installed, six feet above and centered on his face. However, he was buried in 1893 and you can only see a few inches into the six-foot-long tomb as the glass has aged and there is quite a lot of moisture. There are no accounts that his burial was anything other than normal. The cemetery is open 24 hours. Mister Clark's grave is noticeable for the mound around it and the square concrete above it. If it's rained recently, watch your step on the incline. [Review 18492 overall - 91 in Vermont - 2014 of 2022.]

But I love my mom so much, and I heard that the services at that particular funeral home were going downhill. Then I remembered Clancy Palumbo when they took care of my God mother, and it was amazing. So I chose them after talking with Chris for 5 minutes. Even though I didn't live in town anymore. Even though it was about 45 minutes away from me, I knew and felt that this was the right choice for me and my family. I can't say enough about the care, attention to detail, and compassion Chris and his staff showed me and my family. I didn't feel like I was being sold things that I didn't need, the process was transparent and Chris made it go as seamless as possible. There was no detail that went unnoticed. The logistics were handled with great ease. There were so many small details that Chris did that literally made me weep with gratitude. Even though our services were small, Chris made us feel like my mother and our grief mattered. I know in my heart that this man is not doing this work to get rich. He does it because it is his calling. He has my families gratitude and love forever. My prayer is that when I pass, Chris and the team at Clancy-Palumbo will take care of me. Don't look anywhere else. Exceptional service that I would recommend to everyone. God bless Chris and his team.

Maresca & Sons handled the funeral arrangements for my mother, and they did a wonderful job. At the…read moreinitial meeting we had with Neil, he thanked us for entrusting him with this important service. Neil went out of his way to meet with us on a holiday weekend so we could begin to make arrangements for my mother's funeral. He explained all options in detail, including costs, and guided us through every decision we had to make: viewing, funeral service, burial, casket, flowers, pall bearers, obituary, and death certificates. He coordinated very well with the church. What stands out most is how beautiful my mother looked in the casket on the day of her funeral: as we had requested, her hair was colored and styled as she would have liked it, her makeup was flattering, her nails were nicely done, her rosary was well-placed in her hands, and even the guardian angel pin we had left in her nursing home room was pinned to her jacket. Parking and traffic control were handled very well on the day of the funeral. Neil guided us every step of the way so that we could focus on my mother, knowing that he had taken care of every detail. Throughout, Neil was caring and sensitive to making sure our needs were met during this difficult time. Maresca & Sons exceeded our expectations, and I highly recommend them.

I was just there for Father's Day and was I shocked is an understatement!!!! The upkeep has been going downhill for a while now, however, this was really bad. Not sure if you have a new landscaping company or if they are your employees and they JUST DON'T CARE, but it's disgraceful. People pay a lot of money to be buried. The grounds should be kept up, and All Saints should have respect for those that are buried. Time for the office to make some serious changes!!!!! Maria L.

I stop by when I'm on Forest Road, but hadn't been there in a while. I stopped to visit a week or so ago and knew where the marker was, but couldn't find it, as it had been completely grown over. I messaged the cemetery office through their website, and figured it would be placed on some list and dealt with in the distant future. Imagine my surprise when I got a phone call THE FOLLOWING DAY from the cemetery that it had been resolved. The marker had been located, reset and the grass cut back. I did not expect this prompt attention, and am grateful for it.

After several attempts to locate burial plots and name marker stones of my beloved Grandfather, Ralph D'agostino ("Ralphie!") and ("My Little Grammies!"), Antoinette D'Agostino, I felt it was a lost cause and was saddened and upset that I may never find them. When I let Linda O'Neill and Scott Verespie know my dilemma, they not only found exactly where my Grandparents are; they had their cemetery burial ground custodians remove turf to expose the burial plots and name marker stones of my Grandparents! For going above and beyond the call of duty and providing helpful and compassionate customer service to my family; I want to thank the Manager, Scott Verespie, his Administrative Assistant, Linda O'Neill, the Catholic Cemeteries Association and the Archdiocese of Hartford for everything!
