I had my father's memorial service done here recently and I must say it turned out perfect! From the beginning, Mr Ray, the director was professional and accommodating. He explained the process and procedures thoroughly. The venue is small and intimate and well put together. I would definitely highly recommend Genesis Funeral Home to anyone looking for an affordable, professional, and intimate service.

Words are inadequate to express our gratitude to Mr. Paul Ryan for his professionalism, understanding and his willingness to provide the best care for our family. At a time when we were so devastated by the loss of our family member, he put our hearts at ease. He provided a service second to none. He saw us as a grieving family, addressed our heartaches and then he addressed the need to provide the services we would need. We felt overwhelmingly comfortable, his costs were affordable and the end product was awesome. In an industry where people are trying to get the most out of others grieving or not, Paul was there for us as a family. We say thank you for your humanitarian support, for a job well done. We will make it our priority to promote your business Mr. Paul. You deserve the highest recommendations for what you do. Thank you!!!. The family of Cedric Nathan.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the care, compassion, and professionalism shown by Genesis Funeral Home during such a difficult time for our family. From the very first call, they treated us with kindness and respect, making us feel supported and understood every step of the way. Paul Ray and Lisa went above and beyond to ensure that every detail of the arrangements was handled with dignity and grace. They were patient, attentive, and truly listened to our wishes, helping to create a service that beautifully honored our loved ones memory. The facility itself was peaceful and welcoming, offering a comforting environment for family and friends to gather. Every interaction reflected genuine empathy and dedication  we felt like more than just clients; we felt cared for. I wholeheartedly recommend Genesis Funeral home for funeral services. They provided not only exceptional service but also a sense of peace during one of lifes most challenging moments. Thank you for everything.

When you're going through the loss of a loved one, you don't think straight. Thankfully the Cremation Society took care of everything including notifying Social Security and facilitating the death certificate. My sister was treated with care and respect from the time they picked her up until she was returned to us. Thank you.

From the very beginning through my husbands memorial, prayer service, eulogies, funeral Mass, and burial, Landmark Funeral Home cared for our family with compassion, dignity, and respect. I am deeply grateful to Amanda, Kevin, and the entire team. The way they spoke to us and supported our family showed a true understanding of the pain we were experiencing. Their empathy was sincere and reassuring, and it is clear they are meant to help families through the hardest seasons of life. They handled every detail with care, from the prayer cards and obituary to the livestream and service coordination. Most importantly, they took beautiful care of my husband. He looked just like himself, calm and peaceful, which brought our family great comfort. Thank you, Landmark Funeral Home, for your kindness, compassion, and exceptional care. We will always be grateful.

Funeral Director Barbara Losada took care of all arrangements for my dear friends recently. Working with her on their behalf was seamless. Barbara immediately put the family at ease and helped them through the process of bringing their loved one home to Florida. As a Dignity Provider, Barbara had access to a funeral home in our area and arranged everything for the family; relieving the family of speaking with multiple people to make arrangements. Barbara was compassionate and patient, checking in on the family each day with updates. She was always quick to respond to any questions the family had along the way. The Day of Service staff Funeral Director, Joanne, along with Support Staff Souad and JP treated our loved one with respect and dignity while being sincerely compassionate to the familys needs.

Wonderful. More than we could ask for definitely went above and beyond. ^ Im leaving my original review up so it gets noticed. But I had a strange experience with this funeral home. While not all bad it was definitely obvious this is a business first and foremost. I appreciate some of the accommodations made especially last minute like giving us the urn for free and upgrading my aunts coffin doing to her being a bigger person. However, I cant stop thinking about some of the off putting parts of the experience. On our first time meeting, the owner was the one guiding us through the process but he kept trying to make light of the situation by joking with my uncle who lost is wife that same morning. While we were planing the cost he randomly started telling us about a lady who died earlier by suicide and said she did it by shooting herself and that it was a mess. There was a message for the flower arrangement sash that was misspelled so we asked if it could be fixed they said yes no pr

The customer service was impeccable to Me & My Godson Ronald Sorey Jr. Family. The care and work put in couldn't be any better. The medical examiner claimed it would have to be a close casket but we couldn't have picked a better Funeral Home.Michael Williams Funeral Home staff made it possible for us to view my Godson one last time and they did a awesome job where he looked like himself despite the damages from his tragic motorcycle death. If you have love ones that passed away I would suggest this funeral home because they care about the decease and the family. I'm forever grateful for the peace they gave me and the family to be able to view our love one again.
