De Riso Funeral Home 5012 4th Ave., Brooklyn, NY 11232…read more718-439-6169 Praising an organization that truly comes through and then goes beyond its intended services is not difficult at all. We first heard about De Riso Funeral Home from friends that had used their services many years before we decided to ask De Riso to help us with the burial of our father in 2023. We were highly impressed with their dedication and their focus on making such a grieving moment a manageable and dignified experience. They were meticulous with the myriads of details required in this process, and meticulous and artistic in the preparation of our father's remains. They were flexible and very reasonable with the cost of the arrangements while providing the highest values. Almost two years later, our mother who was in her 90's passed away and although we still resided far away in a different borough, we decided to use De Riso again. The present team, Vanessa, Michelle, and the rest of the staff stressed the same focus and unwavering dedication to what is of importance to a grieving family. This culture of caring and attention to a grieving family's burial needs with such enthusiasm, dedication, and dignity is not something that an organization learns overnight. I can easily state that this is part of a tradition. The industry needs more specialized services like De Riso Funeral Home. They have proven to our friends and family that they possess the understanding, and are consummate professionals in this field.

My youngest brother died suddenly, and we had to make arrangements from another state. So you could imagine by the time it came to choosing a program I was overwhelmed. Then Anthony said " I got you" and I told him about my brother (school teacher who loved and breathed everything super hero) Anthony creates a X Men Themed program (attached for your amazement) Sonny our brother was super imposed on wolverines body, hero's gathered around his casket and mourned him. The art work and imagination was incredible!!! This wasn't some stock card ! Anthony listened and created a theme for our beloved Sonny. He even made key chains for us. He DID THIS IN 24 hours !!!!

I used Keepsake Memories for funeral programs after the passing of my brother. Because of the…read moretiming of the funeral, I had very little time to get the programs printed and felt pressured to make a quick decision. I reached out to Anthony, and unfortunately, I regret using his company. Looking back, I should have listened to the three red flags I noticed, but I moved forward out of desperation. Red Flag #1: I requested to see a single printed copy before all programs were printed. Anthony said that would not be possible, even though I was willing to meet him anywhere at his convenience. Red Flag #2: I asked for a specific delivery time. He said he could only guarantee the programs would arrive before the funeral service, but could not provide any further details. Red Flag #3: I asked if I could pay a portion upfront and the remainder upon receiving the programs. He required full payment before printing. Anthony did deliver the programs before the service, but the quality was very poor. Although the paper weight was what we discussed (still thinner than expected), the bigger issue was the print quality. The images I sent were full-bleed (printed to the edges), but the programs I received had white borders around them, and the print quality looked like something produced on a home printer. In my discussion with Anthony regarding my dissatisfaction with my order, he mentioned sending me pictures of previous work, but there was no way for me to know my programs would have borders when the original files I provided did not, nor that the print quality would be so disappointing. Thankfully, I also ordered another set of programs from an online company. They charged me less, delivered within 48 hours, used glossy cardstock, and provided a proof before payment so I could see exactly what the finished product would look like. Using Keepsake Memories/Anthony was a mistake. I'm sharing this so others understand what they may be getting into when working with Keepsake Memories, especially during a vulnerable time when families are grieving and under pressure.

He knows that his job is so much more than just performing the duties, he's a counselor, a coach, and knows that most of his customers haven't done this before. He has numerous options available and doesn't judge your choices or budget. I doubt he is a high pressure salesman. He can navigate family discord as well as legal issues. The business has been in the family for more than one generation and is part of the neighborhood. I hope I don't need his business again soon but when I do I'll be glad to see him.

A close family friend recently passed away and McLaughlin & sons handled the transport to St Patrick's church and also to St Charles Cemetery ( there was no wake) The gentleman who served as Pall Bearers were just wonderful in every aspect. They took part in the Mass at both locations, and were also very gracious, kind, respectful, professional and, yes, personable. The staff at this funeral home really were helpful to my friends family during a very stressful time. So i felt the need to show a little Yelp recognition to a long time running Brooklyn establishment.
