At least pretend to be caring and/or surprised (i.e. relating with the customers). However, this is the cheapest place so thats about it.

They picked up her remains, cremated her in a timely fashion, returned over paid money without request, were there for me at any moment when I called with questions and could not be any more professional. Lori the daughter of the the generational owner was superb. I went to the parlor about 2 months after the cremation as I wanted to have prayer cards made. They pulled her file within 30 seconds. I was taken care of by a young man that is somewhat new in the business, but he was wonderful too. We designed, ordered and paid for the cards in twenty minutes. They then allowed me into their chapel to say a prayer or two. There will be more services needed in my lifetime and I will be sure to use this parlor and family owned organization. Matter of fact I will be sure to have my family use it for my services. Their prices are also the best around. Thank you for everything. Mary M

What started as an awkward query on the price of a funeral for my mom who just passed the evening…read morebefore, turned into an experience I never imagined would be so seamless to get through. I never wanted a viewing because you want to remember your loved ones as they were, but once I saw mom after her passing, I had to allow others to see her one last time. Ralph Cerasuolo, funeral director, invited us into their office and sat us down and asked what was it that we were looking to do. From there, the conversation slowly evolved from pricing a funeral to hobbies and travel and Italy. Ralph made it easy to do what I needed to get done for Mami. While Ralph complied a price list, he let us browse through a prayer book catalog and I was so happy to find Mami's favorite patron saint as one of the selections. It's not a common saint to find and I found Him here at Riverdale Funeral Home. Preparing for this day, a few months ago, I started a photo slideshow project of Mami's life and I wanted to bring a projector with my iPad to the viewing. I was so happy to learn that it wouldn't be needed as Riverdale Funeral Home provides a large flatscreen TV with plenty of HDMI plugs for use with devices to display photos and memories. I was also contemplating in bringing bottled water for visitors but had no time to get a case. No worries again. When I arrived for Mami's viewing, there were plenty of carafes of water throughout the room alongside cone paper cups. Another stress reliever that they supplied these simple amenities. On the day of her viewing, Mami looked absolutely beautiful. One of my worst fears all my life was to see her on a day like this and have that last memory of her not looking like herself but she looked like she was sleeping, completely rested. She had her costume jewelry on, just as she did in life and looked like she was just waiting to head to one of her parties. My heart was filled with so much happiness. I cannot thank Ralph enough for his knowledge and in being the one to assist us with Mami's arrangements. James Winkle, their office manager supervised Mami's visit and he is a dear to engage with as well. The funeral home itself has a very cozy feel with warmth when you walk in. One truly feels they are with family through the process. Riverdale Funeral Home made this sad loss of ours a beautiful memory we will always remember. Thank you for this. Warmest Regards, Family of Zulema Medina Lopez

The space is definitely dated and could use some repairs. It has the classic dark wood/ wine colors throughout. The furniture could be upgraded specifically the couches inside the viewing room. The fountain in the middle does not seem to be functional. The women's bathroom was clean and had toilet paper. As a guest, this seemed like the typical funeral home experience. We stayed a little past the closing time of 8pm and they came in to remind us of the time but were otherwise very discreet and respectful.

Honestly it was very disrespectful she could have waited till we finished. My partners sister died and honestly it's just very basic service. They do not provide anyone to style hair for the body. I was told they will slick her hair back and yet they washed it and did nothing to it. We're Spanish we have frizzy hair you can't just wet and go. I tried to do her hair the next day and it was still wet and matted in the back which didn't allow me to do much. When i complained they advised me it must of been a guy who did it. Regardless who responsible for the job they should know what the hell they are doing common sense right. They did not provide adequate make up service they didn't even have a matching foundation it was totally a different color then her skin. Her forehead was peeling so they didn't have great care of the body in their care. She was starting to bruise in her cheeks during the wake which wasn't there originally. Any information we found out was the day off and they were constantly confusing us with another party so they had to triple and double check with us our details. We paid the remaining of the balance a few days before the funeral and the day off they still looking like deer in head lights that they didn't have a payment. The lack of communication amongst staff is horrible. Even asking for a easel for a picture we brought for the funeral almost took 45 min and yet there was only two funerals going on. Furniture is old and crusty and no tv for picture videos. No they do not provide live services online for those that can't make it.

This is probably one of the worst reviews I have ever written for any place, but here we go…read more I will start by saying there was absolutely no crowd control at this place. My family and I weren't even able to get through to my family members viewing room because the first room was flooded with people. They didn't not fit in the room and were all in the walking area and no way around them all. Please do not get me wrong. I know they were all their for a loss just like my family. My issue was not with them at this point, but with the lack of staff to control the amount of visitors they had at once. We were unable to properly and comfortably mourn out relative because of how loud they were. We then found out two fights broke out during their viewing. The parking lot wad full of liquor bottles (some broken) which we had to move to the side in hopes we did not run over and catch flats. Now to the worst part and I will not get into specific details, but here we go. My relative wad not taken care of the way they should have been. The body was decomposing meaning they did not do something right on their part. Those who saw this relative when the casket was opened were in shock. Yes we know the Deceased person will not look like what the would if alive, but this was something unexplainable. The odor coming from the body was horrific. This was not what the family paid for, this was not what anyone wanted to know as their last memories of this person. If you ever think about coming to this or any of their locations at that I truly hope you reconsider. I have no clue how they are even still in business. Families and the deceased deserve much more respect.
