Mom was in MA when she passed at 2:45am and Albini's contracted with a local funeral home in our area to have her picked up in the middle of the night; her remains prepared; and her transfer back to CT. Finalizing arrangements was simple and easy in the days leading up to the funeral. They were able to supply easels for pictures that I had made into posters and they would take them from the church to the post funeral lunch. Kevin also kept in great touch with the venue for the after funeral luncheon that day so they were ready when we ran ahead of schedule. The calling hour, funeral, burial, and post funeral luncheon ran smoothly under Kevin's direction. We are so grateful for his and his crew's hard work and care.

After numerous phone calls and emails, I have come to the conclusion that they are not interested in my business.

These insensitive and rude people are in the wrong business.

It was in the fall so they could not guarantee it would be done that year due to it getting colder but it would be done the following year. Since I live out of state I asked for them to call me when it was completed and they took down my information and wrote a note to call me. Fast forward to early next summer and I haven't heard anything. I emailed multiple times and called but no one responded to my emails or answered the phone. When I was in Connecticut visiting I had to go to the cemetery to check and see if the engraving was done and it was, but no one from Ciarlo had let me know like they were supposed to. That being said, the engraving looks great. My interaction with them in-house when I paid for the engraving was nothing over the top. Just basic interaction. If you're looking for above and beyond I would go elsewhere.

In September, our family entrusted Chapel Memorial Funeral Home (CMFH) with the arrangements for my…read moremother-in-law's final services. Unfortunately, the experience was deeply disappointing, marked by a lack of professionalism, empathy, and organization. At a time when families are most vulnerable, CMFH failed to provide the compassion and integrity one should expect from a funeral home. Our family initially met with a gentleman who was courteous but not authorized to make final decisions. We were told we needed to meet with Valerie, the funeral director, to finalize arrangements and ensure we could stay within our very limited budget. When the meeting day arrived, Valerie showed up 20 minutes late and was completely unprepared. From the start, her demeanor lacked empathy and professionalism. During our discussion, she made an inappropriate remark about her colleague, stating, "He's a man and doesn't know what needs to be done" when referring to the preparation (makeup) for our loved one. This comment was not only unprofessional but highly insensitive, especially to a grieving family just days before the funeral. Regarding pricing and services, we were charged for the use of a 32" ONN television to display a memorial video. The fee was explained as covering both the equipment and dedicated technical support. However, the person assigned as "technical support" -- who was also managing the funeral service -- had no technical expertise. She did not know how to connect a laptop with a cable, and I had to personally request one twice. The only method she attempted was using a USB stick, which the monitor couldn't read. This made the charge unjustifiable and added unnecessary stress during an already emotional event. After finalizing our selections, Valerie provided a written quote. We reviewed all the details together, signed the paperwork, and left to obtain payment. While en route to the bank, I received a call from her stating that she had made a "calculation error" and was increasing the total by $1,100. The tone was dismissive and unapologetic -- no acknowledgment of the inconvenience or her mistake. When we returned to deliver payment and the clothing for preparation, Valerie avoided contact altogether. Her office manager -- the Office Manager, who also handled "technical support" -- processed everything. On the day of the funeral, Valerie remained out of sight, never once checking in with the family. At the gravesite, without prior coordination, the attendants instructed the pallbearers to face the mourners and speak -- something the family had never requested or approved. Following the service, a blanket with our loved one's image was presented to the family. While it appeared to be a thoughtful gesture, we know it was not without a cost and even an offer to purchase additional copies. This left a terrible impression, as if the family's grief had been turned into a sales opportunity, despite our clearly stated budget limitations. In summary, the facilities and service quality do not justify the cost. Valerie did do a commendable job with the physical preparation of my mother-in-law -- she was presented beautifully and as we had hoped. Unfortunately, that was the only positive aspect of our experience. Chapel Memorial Funeral Home's lack of empathy, accountability, and professionalism made an already painful time even more difficult. I would not recommend this funeral home to any family seeking respectful, compassionate, and honest service during their time of loss.

They wheeled him out to the van that was parked underneath the overhang. As they were pushing the gurney with the body strapped to it into the back of the van the legs wouldn't collapse. Instead of trying to fix it they just kept trying to slam it harder and harder into the rear bumper hoping that eventually it would collapse and they could slide the body in. Meanwhile all of this is happening in front of all of his family who was just with him when he passed. Finally after slamming it back-and-forth into the bumper for about 20 minutes, they decided to unstrap him from the gurney and slide the body into the van without the gurney. They were then proceeded to put the gurney in the back of the van on top of the body until we told them they better not. When asked about what just happened by a relative the funeral employee lied to her. I'm not sure he realize we were all watching the entire time. The next issue was when they released the obituary without proofreading it and had his mothers name wrong and his job wrong. It took over a day for them to fix the issue in the obituary that was already published online. I will say that the wake went without incident.Parking is very tight there. I would not recommend this funeral home for your loved ones
