What Families Are Saying

What Families Are Saying

Almost every day, we receive thank you notes and cards from the families we’ve served. Each of these heartfelt messages means more to us than we can express here, because it affirms the fact that we are doing what we set out to do when we opened the doors of Bordentown Home for Funerals: help families celebrate, honor, and memorialize a loved one with compassionate attentive care, and thorough professionalism. Take some time to read their words – and learn that, every day, we exceed expectations.
"Dear Rob, How does one say thank you for everything? There are no words to say how much we appreciated all you did to assure dad’s viewing & funeral went smoothly. We were very "at home" in your establishment & you certainly helped us to display dad’s lifetime of special accomplishments. Thank you for EVERYTHING right down to local diner reservations. You answered questions, made suggestions, listened & cared. You and your staff helped us through a rough time."
Family of Joe Lawrence
"Rob, Steph & Staff, We cannot thank you enough for making such a difficult time ever so comforting. You went above and beyond the call of duty from start to finish. You were there for us every step of the way. We greatly appreciate every bit of care, concern and respect. Not only did you display professionalism, but your sensitivity was felt by all. Thanks so much!" 
The Tunney Family
"Rob, I just wanted to express how much your compassion in dealing with my double loss has meant to me. It has been a very long few weeks for my family & myself. Losing mom & dad 17 days apart was beyond difficult & very emotional. You had your work cut out dealing with 8 children who grieved in very unique ways. I admire how you were able to maintain neutral (& calm!) with all the crazy request that were made. Lastly, the ceremony at the chapel with the presentation of the American Flags was unbelievable. I cannot thank you enough for such a wonderful gift. You have provided myself & my siblings the most beautiful & moving moment of our lives I will treasure that gift forever."

"Dear Robert, I just wanted to write a small letter to you to express our sincere gratitude for you and the work you do. Our whole family was extremely impressed with how well everything was handled and especially, the truly sincere part you had. My in-laws could not get over your kindness, understanding and caring. Also, the gift box that was sent was enjoyed by Claudina’s family the day prior to the viewing. It came at the perfect time and was a lovely surprise. I know someone like you may be tempted to say that it "was part of my job", but it wasn't! You give a special part of yourself and that is not always expected or given. So on behalf of my husband, his father, the children and myself, Thank You."
The Chiriboga Family
"Dear Rob, I can’t thank you enough for all you did for me and my family in the death of our mother, Irene Horner. You thought of everything and we barely had to ask a question. The service went
smoothly and your poem at the grave meant so much. At such sad times when everyone is filled with grief and sorrow, having someone know just the right thing to say and do and take care of all the details is a blessing. The Bordentown Community is lucky to have you. Thank You Again Rob."
 Gerry & Bob Glasson & the family of Irene Horner
"Dear Robert & Stephanie, Please accept our gratitude for your kindness and compassion during this grievous time. Your support, guidance and handling of Mom’s funeral was exceptional; she looked beautiful. The extra measure of the poem at the graveside and the gift basket are over the top. For all of this; thank you."
 Thomas Sklios, Colette & Albert Agabiti & Family, Carol & Charles Carroll & Family,
Robert & Peggy Sklios & Family
"Dear Rob, Thank you for making our difficult time so easy. Your thoughtfulness was so great to lean on. Your "Grandma" was right this is your calling. Thanks."

Agne, Alexandria, Adrianna, Benjamin & Joseph
"Dear Rob, Thank you so much for the way you handled Bob's funeral. It was most appreciated. I think Bob would have been happy with everything."
Betty Bennett & Family
"Dear Rob, On behalf of my family and myself, I would like to thank you for your service. It is very difficult to lose a family member, and you made the experience much easier to deal with. You are compassionate caring, and sensitive which helped everyone cope much easier dealing with my father's final arrangements. Never change, keep up the great work. Thank You Again."
Albert Agabih and Family
"Dear Rob, Thank you for seeing my family through the sudden loss of our sister. Your guidance and support made every step along the way a little lighter and a little steadier. I am especially thankful for the time and care you personally spent in preparing Vernia for our private viewing. Seeing her laying there in peaceful beauty made the tragedy of her loss a little more bearable for me. Please know that my siblings and I are completely satisfied with the services we received , and will gladly recommend Bordentown Home for Funerals to other family members and friends when the need arises. With Warm Regards."

"Wow, where to start.....Well, first Rob is an amazing human. At such a tragic time in my life, after losing my life long best friend at the young age of 29, Rob went so far and beyond his duties. .. Not just in the job he had to do but in the generosity he had for his Community and for my friend who was a local EMT/Fireman."

"Speaking with Robert felt more like speaking with a dear friend. He is beyond knowledgeable and to say he pays attention to every detail puts it very mildly. He was beyond outgoing and knew the right questions to ask so he could get a vivid picture of the man my brother was. We enjoyed speaking with Robert so much that we asked him to oversee the ceremony. Robert wrote a lovely speech and made us all feel like he personally knew my brother. I cannot say enough about the wonderful experience my family had with Robert and his staff."
