But it's these little things that truly make the difference between you surviving the death of a loved one or going down an awful downwards spiral. When dad died the hospital gave us the contact info to Auclairs. Right there is a mistake- the hospitals should hand out a list to choose from and not endorse one funeral home or another. I called Auclairs at first but was made to feel like a bother, a number, a nuisance in fact. I immediately decided to look elsewhere and came across Boule Funeral Home. Owners Tom and Wendy bent over backwards to help me and my handicapped mother. They helped us to save every penny possible and they clearly were not looking to take financial advantage of a grieving family, something I've always feared. We're not wealthy and they made sure we weren't given options that only wealthy families could afford. Tom and Wendy are compassionate, available, connected, and have kind hearts. At one point I had asked to sit with dad before the funeral. I was welcomed to sit there and hold his hand, tears overflowing, until I had all the closure that I needed to move forward- As a nurse, I often get approached by folks who tell me that I have changed their lives in one way or another- that's how I felt with Boule. It's often the little things that truly make the difference between you surviving the death of a loved one or going down an awful downwards spiral. Tom and Wendy made sure that ALL things were attended to when we were barely able to attend to ourselves. NEVER EVER CHOOSE ANYONE ELSE IN THE AREA. Thank you Boule Funeral Home Mike Kimball

If someone is looking for a review of funeral homes, likely this is not a great time in their…read morelives. Normally, I would not think to review, however after having recently had 2 funerals in 2 years at Boule's I feel the need to leave some feedback. Tom is an absolutely astounding human being. In 2017, my family lost my 16 year old sister to health complications. The loss was sudden and left us in an extremely hard place financially, emotionally and mentally. A friend of ours drove my mom to Boule's to speak with Tom. Upon hearing the story of my sister's life and how dedicated my mother was to her, Tom decided to be patient and work out whatever he could to help us give her the services she deserved without feeling pressured to think about the money right away. He was just absolutely kind, I have no words to describe it. More recently, two weeks ago, I lost a childhood best friend. His mom decided to go with Boule. Again, I saw Tom and he remembered my family despite it being two years. He asked questions and was genuinely interested in knowing how we were doing. He and his team did an amazing job with giving my friend one last send off. He even allowed us closer friends to stay an extra 30 minutes because he knew we were having a rough time. My friend was 28, we're all a bunch of "kids" who didn't expect this so suddenly. Again, Tom understanding as always was patient and kind with us and the family. *****Overall, I highly recommend going with this home. These people genuinely care for you, your family and your feelings. They aren't after the money.

This is the absolute worse cemetery I have ever seen. The manager is down right rude!…read moreUnprofessional has no absolutely NO PEOPLE SKILLS! And has no business working with the public. SHE HANGS UP THE PHONE ON YOU! How's that for RUDE & UNPROFESSIONAL! It's a dirty cemetery. The roads are all cracked & pot holes. We pay through the nose for the right to burial of loved ones & stone. But that is all. They have no respect for the deceased. Or their families! So sorry my Father is buried here! And they close gates. God forbid you work during the day & weekends. Or if you want to leave flowers. Or a candle on flat stones. You don't have the same rights as the tall stones do. Guess the tall stones money is greener & better. Than the flat stones. If you have a flat stone. They throw away anything loved ones leave for the diseased. Which is very disrespectful! And almost like stealing from the deceased! And makes loved ones feel discriminated! Because God forbid who ever mows the lawn. Can show the same respect for ALL the deceased & their families! And go around the stone! As they do for the tall stones! Or at least let the deceased families take care of the up keep & mowing of the their deceased Stones area themselves! And at least then I am sure the cemetery would be cleaner! And so that They can leave flowers. Or a candle in memory of their loved ones! Also cemetery locks it's gates during the week at 3:30 PM and at 12:30 PM on the weekends! Call ahead for the current visitation hours. You have to visit the deceased on their schedule! NOT yours. Also if their reason for them closing the gates is so that no one vandalizes. If people really want to vandalize. They can always jump the fence. Also the cemetery is filled with goose excrement everywhere! It is REALLY SO GROSS! They should be more worried about CLEANING UP THE GOOSE EXCREMENT! That you can't even walk to a grave site. Without stepping in goose excrement! Then they worry about removing flowers & candles that loved one leave. To show respect in memory of their loved ones! It really is a shame! Aug. 9th 2014 I go visit my fathers grave. Just to see that my father's head stone has been damaged. Because they mowed the lawn right over the stone. Not showing the same respect for all the dead! This was so heart breaking to me & my family. I am so sorry we buried him here. This is such a horrible disrespectful cemetery! We spent so much money for nothing! We have no rights! Apparently this is a place were if you want to off somebody. This is were you dump the body & run. No Flowers allowed. You're lucky if you can have a stone. But if they damage it due to their carelessness Oh well you have no rights. Except the right to dump the body & run! I wish this site would let me post a picture of the damaged stone!

I worked with a woman named Sharon, she has no clue how to speak to people let alone people grieving over a loved one passing away. Not to mention the fact it was difficult for her to answer any of my questions, she got up while I was speaking and walked out of the room. They were not a place I would trust with my family and certainly not someone that was called on my behalf. They took it upon themselves to take over without any authorization and when I mention that to Sharon she told me to file a claim with the state and it was not her problem. Needless to say I called several other homes in the area and they have had similar complaints about them. I was so grateful to the Funeral Home I went with 20 minutes away. All I can say is run far from this place and don't give yourself extra stress (especially when you're trying to cope with the grief) dealing with these people.

Bell graves and…read morecolonels The Union Cemetery is usually considered as part of the old Commons Graveyard right across the street. The two sort of merge into one and look quite similar. Lot of very old graves here, many dating back into the 1600's. Other s are just about gone, worn down to nubs that are impossible to read. This is a very cool graveyard with a whole lot of history. Fascinating going around from grave to grave reading the inscriptions. The ancient town green is here too and the Commons Graveyard Is actually right on the green. A cool old bell guards on side while a church is on the other. History and the feel of the past just permeates the entire area. Not a fancy cemetery with a lot of rich and opulent graves. Some pretty cool ones like a statue of a colonel and some small obelisks but all the markers and memorials blend together quite nicely with the ancient trees and wonderful old houses of the area. A graveyard that has been here for a long time. And I suspect one that will still be here long after I am gone.
