    Losing a family member was one of the hardest experiences our family has ever faced, but King Fook…read moreFuneral Services made a deeply painful time feel a little more bearable. As this was our first time ever planning a funeral, we had no idea where to begin -- but from the moment we walked through their doors, we were met with compassion, patience, and professionalism. I want to give a very special mention to Joe, who was absolutely exceptional. He took the time to sit with our family and walk us through every step of the process with such care and clarity. What meant the most to us was how knowledgeable and respectful he was about our family member's Chinese Taoist beliefs and cultural traditions. He didn't just go through the motions -- he genuinely understood the significance of honoring their faith and guided us on exactly what we would need to do to carry out the proper Taoist practices and rituals. He made sure nothing was overlooked and that their wishes were respected in every way. Because of Joe and the entire team at King Fook Funeral Services, we were able to give our loved one a farewell that truly reflected who they were and the traditions they held dear. If you are looking for a funeral home that genuinely cares -- especially one that understands and honors Chinese cultural and religious traditions -- I cannot recommend King Fook Funeral Services highly enough. Thank you, Joe, from the bottom of our hearts.

The staff were exceptional from start to finish. A special thank you to Joe, who was outstanding. He was thoughtful, attentive, and truly went above and beyond to help our family. His calm presence and professionalism made a very challenging time much easier to navigate. During this very difficult time for our family, they were professional, compassionate, and incredibly supportive. They handled everything with discretion and care, and their experience was evident in the way Joe guided us through each step of the process. We had countless questions along the way, and Joe was always responsive, patient, and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure we felt comfortable with every decision. We are deeply grateful for the care and respect they showed our family and highly recommend their services if needed.

    I've unfortunately had to use Torregrossa's services twice in the last 4 years. Fortunately the…read moreteam at Torregrossa were extremely knowledgeable, accommodating, patient and professional. Most recently Sylvia and Sharlene were great as we laid my Uncle to rest. They were both so kind and patient dealing with last minute requests. It made such a terrible situation a little bit easier.

    At first Sylvia appeared caring and compassionate. She attempted to save us expenses with $300…read morefrom a "good florist". They were in fact aged flowers picked off of someone else's left overs. They barely covered the container let alone the casket. I tipped the limo driver in advance as per her instructions and give her the money but he ended up asking for an additional tip in front of your family. She didn't offer the additional money back. Of course the driver denied it. The worst was desecrating my father's body. She used a person unfamiliar with working with clients of color. She tried to light me into thinking it was the church lighting. Black people know what we look like in church with makeup! We ended closing the coffin early because he looks so unrecognizable. She's used person of European descent who was older, he did not provide a haircut and gave his mustache a 70s cowboy look even though we provided a picture. Sylvia had a picture of my dad post cosmetics to "prove" the quality. I of course declined. Who wants to see their father with skin glue on his lips and eyelids. Blotchy make up. No caps underneath the eyelids so he appeared to be squinting. It was a horrible experience. She states the funeral home works with a Haitian community, but that was obviously wrong . As a healthcare provider I am aware that the deceased don't resemble themselves but family and friends didn't know who that was lying in state. This is not my first funeral but this was by far the worst. She will make all sorts of excuses and offer no apology. The experience made me lean towards cremation, no viewing,no funeral home for my own final affairs.

It will be a community space for public programs, a mini-museum, a location for research & education, and more. There's a visitor welcome and orientation area, a room for community meetings, a restored greenhouse space, two exhibition galleries, a Center for Research (to access & study the cemetery's records [including environmentally-controlled storage for 185+ years of archival documents]), restrooms and staff offices. Funding was provided by many New York state & city agencies plus charitable organizations and individual donors. After the Grand Opening Weekend Celebration, regular hours will be from 10-7 on Thursday-Monday. Lastly; Green-Wood's summer hours began yesterday, and the main entrance is now open (daily) from 7-7.

    overall rating: 4.5…read more I've heard great things and wish they still had koi fish visiting. I went once in the fall and the second for their Halloween event. The Halloween even is not worth it. Some "acts" were really cool, however the price is way too steep. If it was ~$60 I think it's a good find. But $80 was too much. The circus act was also completely random. Wish there were more ghost stories, or history about the people buried there. It would be more Halloween and respectful of the graves.
