John Hanks is a wonderful individual and I cannot thank him enough for his help and services when…read moremy father passed away in 2018. It has taken me a while to write this review, but the memory of John's professionalism, grace, compassion, and work ethic remains clear in my mind, even years later. My father's wish was to be buried at sea in a casket, which is not an easy task to the untrained layperson. John made the process seamless and was extremely informative, upfront, compassionate and fair. He worked with myself, my mother and brother to make sure my father's exact wishes were met. He organized everything and made sure that we were kept informed throughout the whole process. His his an honest and honorable man, and I can't recommend him enough.

I came here a few weeks ago as I decided that I needed to make final arrangements for any…read morefuneral/burial expenses. I am not sick or anything, I am quite healthy... but it's something that has been in my mind to do a lot recently. Firstly, someone who I know recently had his mother die suddenly, and thankfully most it not all of those expenses were taken care of because she had the foresight of paying for them preneed. It is definitely very expensive for loved ones to pay for these final expenses once someone passes away all at once, especially when the costs being exponentially greater as compared to when you have a contract which sets out the terms of payment in reasonable monthly installments. Death is expensive... as such, I decided to make sure this was taken care of. Secondly, I chose to come specifically here because this has been where my family has paid for preneed funeral services in the past and where the wakes for my sister, aunt/godmother, grandmother and grandfather has been done in the past and moreover where my still living mother went to pay for her own preneed arrangements. In other words, my family has been using the services of Memorial Plan, specifically his very funeral home for decades. The saleswoman I met with, actually was the one who sold those services to my Mom and Aunt. I walked in and spoke with her. We went over the details of the arrangements and walked around the funeral home. As I said I had been here many times before so I didn't need a full tour. She showed me the types and styles of coffins available and I chose a reasonably priced gunmetal colored one. The chapels (I assume that's the right term) haven't changed much in style of the years, but they are large, private and comfortable which is important in wakes. There is also a small lounge, snack center in there... may not sound important but when your the family of the deceased having a place u can be at and have a drink and some time to yourself really helps. I know I used this place in the past. After going over the particulars, she did recommend I stop by the funeral home that belongs to them that closer to my home just in case I would like that place better. I decided to check it out as it doesn't matter where the wake actually happens when it comes to the cost... I went to the other one the next day because it seemed I missed signing some papers before I left from here and I needed to bring my check book for the down payment. I know this review sounds a bit depressing and macabre, but one must prepare for all the eventualities in life especially this one. The last thing anyone should do is place a large financial burden on their families right on top of the emotional stress and loss that comes with losing someone they love.

Very upset with the service provider. We first came in to get some things finalized for my father…read morein laws services. We were consoled and the staff was very understanding. They went into details about the process of the services and explained what was going to happen. We were told we were going to be contacted when the signatures were acquired from all parties prior. We waited 3-4 days only to be contacted toward the end of the fourth day that the whole process already happened and to please come by. We waited for the call as well because they were supposed to also be provided details of the dimensions so that a decision could be made for the next step. No calls. I called to express how I felt as the rep spoke to me, my wife and my mother in law. We ALL heard the same thing only to be told that we misunderstood what was told. That was a very tough pill to swallow. Then the day of the funeral we arrived to pick up my father in laws remains only to have to wait 40 minutes. We called the day before to confirm everything was ready so no hiccups. Only to wait because all the reps were writing contracts mind you we are needing to go to the procession at the cemetery. We barely made it on time. How could they be so arrogant and unprofessional knowing we told them we were needing to leave only to be told to please wait.

My father in law's service was handled with care and compassion. They did a beautiful job making him look so at peace. The service room was clean and had ample space to sit as we had over 100 loved ones attend. Everything was prompt and on time. The flower arrangements that were available for purchase were stunning and so many options. The front desk staff was knowledgeable and extremely helpful with all of my questions. Handheld obituary cards with his information on them along with a QR code version were provided and the website was user friendly. They also provided a slide show with his photos played on the tv next to his casket along with a hard copy on a flash drive that was given to us after the service was finished. When it was time to take him to the cemetery, everything was so well organized and the police officers that helped us get to the cemetery (30 min away) were amazing. Keeping 20 cars in line, getting them through traffic in Miami on the highways was so impressive. Their services helped my family put him to rest and provided exemplary compassion and care. Thank you so much, from the Fonseca Family.
