The staff showed exceptional compassion and made planning our mother's funeral as smooth and stress-free as possible during such a difficult time. From the director and pastor to every member of the front-line team, everyone was kind, attentive, and supportive. The chapel and reception areas were clean, welcoming, and thoughtfully arranged, with plenty of seating for all our guests. Small but meaningful details--like readily available tissues and other considerate touches--did not go unnoticed. It truly felt like every need was anticipated, allowing our family to focus on grieving and being together. Thank you, Fry Memorial, for handling everything with such care and for easing the burden on our family during a very sad time. read more

Date: 6/16/2025 Time: 11:45 AM 79° Sunny Two of my classmates and I attended a memorial service for a classmate's husband. I have not seen Marsha since our high school days in 1970. I wasn't sure if she remembered me. She was happy to see three of her classmates attending the service. The chapel is indeed a beautiful one with the stained glass windows and chandeliers. I was amazed to see her family relatives and friends who were there to show her love and support during difficult times. Even more amazing was the people who attended had some connection to my classmates and me. It's a small world as to who we know. I enjoyed sharing high school memories, despite the circumstances. Fellowship among people attending is important and it is showing support and love for each other. I thanked my classmate, Jennifer, for giving me a ride from Alameda to Tracy for the memorial service for "Poncho". read more

I wanna start of by giving a huge thanks to Janelle and candy, they were a huge blessing in these tough and confusing times we were going through. Since the start when my mother had passed away they came in and retrieved her and made sure we were all ok and gave nothing but the up most respect. They were super fast on getting everything prepared and the staff was extremely caring and sweet. Everything beautifully organized and clean, made the whole memorial service exceed all of expectations made it absolutely beautiful. Once again I'm very thankful for not only treating me and my family with respect but love but also my mother. Thank you it would've been done with out all of them! read more

Fry memorial has been very accommodating and professional. I really enjoyed working with Candy, she made this process for my brother and I very easy and helped us every bit of the way. read more

They had great services, they were very patient with us giving us our time to decide what we want to do, they did a good job with everything. read more

Just spoke to a rude person named Candy, accusing me of falsifying records. She's so impatient and non caring considering we are talking about a person who just died! She was so unhelpful. All I needed is a receipt for the expenses we paid, which we needed to apply for my father's funeral benefits. Ms Candy needs more training in costumer service. read more

The funeral service was handled with great care and respect. Candy Goeken was especially outstanding--kind, compassionate, and very supportive. She made a difficult time much more manageable for our family. We're truly grateful for her help and the professionalism of the entire staff. Would definitely recommend! read more

Very organized. Kept us up to date. Day of service was excellent. Matt knew exactly what needed to be done. My mom was a little out of it from emotions and Matt handled everything so perfectly. read more

I recently lost my mom and decided to have Matt and his professional and carring crew handle this very emotional and difficult time for me and my family at Fry Memorial Chapel. I couldn't be happier with the outcome. My mom would be proud! read more

We have used Fry Memorial in the past, and this time we had to use them from out of state. They were so easy to deal with. So kind every time I sent someone over there, called, came in...the men who came to my mom's gravesite service couldn't have been more respectful, helpful, patient, attentive, or kind. They really take care of everything for you. read more

My family and I will forever be grateful for Fry Memorial. My grandpa passed away 8 months ago suddenly and they took the best care of us. They made sure we knew all the costs and explained in detail how the process would go. It was a hard time especially for my mom but they made her feel so much better. Fast forward 8 months later my mom needed to get some documents regarding a name change in order to tie up loose ends in Mexico. They immediately helped us change the name and even went as far as to get the document themselves at the health department for me to send to Mexico. It was something we will never forget. Joleen and Larissa are the best and so is the rest of the amazing staff! read more

No one likes to think or talk about death, but in quoting my Dad; "the only thing your guaranteed in life is death" so sooner or later, like it or not, your going to have to deal with the issue like I had to do recently when I lost my mother. Fry's Funeral Home was chosen for several reasons. The most important being, they offer and have their own on-site crematory which IMO makes a huge difference when your planning out the funeral logistics like travel and the service location. Without going into the details, I want to thank: Lucy Borba, Jere Nicolay, Donald Brager and Denise Edwards for your professionalism, hard work and attention to detail. You we're a huge help in easing my families stress as we transitioned from routine days and into the reality of dealing with a death. You are all godsends. read more

The fry memorial staff are truly great at what they do! When my Dad passed away so suddenly they jumped right in to lend a hand and assist in guiding me through the entire process! There is so much that goes into someone's passing from legality's to burial rituals and it can be a lot to take on not to mention during a pandemic! I am so thankful to Fry Memorials staff! They handled my father with respect and went above and beyond for my family and I! They are responsibly priced and honest! Larissa G. was my personal coordinator and she helped to make all the plans less stressful and helped me with so many personal touches to make my Dad's ceremonies perfect and as he would want them! Thank you Fry Memorial Staff for all your kind words and graciousness! I really appreciate you handling my Dads with such care and respect! read more

If I could I would give 0 stars, no one wants to loose a loved one Larissa was extremely rude and belittled us the whole time we were trying to set up arrangements for my brothers funeral all she kept talking about was the money like we didn't have any, she showed no compassion and was more worried about the text messages she was getting on her watch truly disappointing that there is a person like her working in this type field she should have more compassion for families who have just lost a loved one also she was very misinformed would not recommend this placed to any one due to the way she treated my family. read more

Just avoid them....you rarely need this service and if you get less than ideal service...do not give them a second chance....having to use a funeral home is a difficult time..and despite a friendly contact to work the arrangements...they placed their needs over ours...I specifically asked for no obit...my family and I were working it and wanted to inform personally before they read it in the paper...the funeral home decided they would place a "death notice" in the local paper...was a clever way around my request so what I believe was to advertise them...now I have drama on the cold, poor quality and insincerity on the notice, crying family members...costic relatives...and a host of prying businesses engaging me...my take is if you show a breach of integrity...just what else did they do for their benefit. read more

Great place that works well with your needs and ways. I would recommend to anyone who needs services. The Chapel is beautiful and services can be streamed and/or in person. read more

Thank you to Larissa for such caring care during my family's difficult time. She was very helpful, friendly and always very responsive to all of our questions. She kept open and constant contact with us, and helped us thru such a difficult time. Thank you Fry's for a beautiful service, Thank You Larissa for your kindness. read more

My family and I were taken care of during this very difficult time of arranging all funeral services for my father. Larissa was very professional and made sure we were satisfied with all of the services they were preparing for us. The day of the services, Zachery and Katharyn were amazing, kind and very very professional. This was a very tough two days for us, and they both made sure everything kept flowing, as far as the day's agenda, and made sure we were taken care of. They not only helped us with the day of planning, but they made sure all of the flower arrangements made it to our home and kept notes for us explaining who sent what arrangements and descriptions of each. Although this was a very sad event, they made sure it was perfect. Thank you! read more

During our sad difficult time Jolley was so empathetic and sympathetic. Very patient and answered all of our questions. She made it so easy and she took care of the details for Mom. Flights for Mom as well as talking to the out of state funeral home. All for FREE! Highly recommended for the unfortunate circumstances. read more

No one wants to lose a baby, this was the hardest experience one can go through. I was so distraught that they had enough empathy that they did not want me to experience that pain again by coming back to pick up my urn. They brought it to me and I tell you that was the best for me. I wanted to say thank you so much for giving me the best compassionate experience ever. read more

My son passed away an I had no idea what to do. We had transplant people contacting us, an we hadn't even been able to see the body yet. I had no idea what to do or where to start. So, I called up the only place I knew of in the area. Death is awkward and difficult, and when it is your child, it is a million times worse. Joellene was wonderful. She explained to me the process of everything, and was so helpful to my husband and I. Without her, I don't know if I could have gotten anything done. Pricing was fair. It's a smaller price for children. Of course you don't have money set aside for the possible death of your child, so they were very patient with us for payment. It has been 3 1/2 months and I had to call and ask a question, and they immediately k we who I was and asked how my family and I were holding up. I had nothing but great experiences with them....given the situation. I am so thankful for Fry Memorial Chapel. read more

It's been more than 6 months since my father passed away, I've been meaning to review Fry's but kept putting it off until now. This was my first funeral that I've had to organize myself, although his passing wasn't sudden I think I was just in denial about it until the end which I hear is normal. With that said, the whole staff at Fry's Memorial has been more than phenomenal! My situation was not an easy one as my dad passed away in Texas but nevertheless I got a quick response from Matt and his willingness to help along with his guidance was very much so appreciated. My dads service was beautiful, the video created, the music, the whole thing was stress free and very well organized. But most of all, the messages I receive from the office to make sure everything is okay, the messages around the holidays and the text I got on my dads birthday will forever seal the deal on me knowing Fry's was the best choice made for my family. I would recommend Fry's any day! Thank you Matt and Joelleen, and everyone at Fry's, you guys are heaven sent. read more

My mother recently passed away on March 10, 2015. She had signed up with a pre-need policy with Fry Memorial Chapel. Darren Carter who is a funeral director at Fry Memorial did a wonderful job in handling my mothers case. He was extremely kind, caring, and compassionate. He went out of his way to make sure that all our needs were met. He is definitely a "people person" and a great asset to the business. I highly recommend Darren and the entire staff at Fry Memorial Chapel. A.J. Berner read more

I really can't say much about Fry Memorial. I came here because my janitor died and this was where the service was held. Hospitality was nonexistent, however, the family seemed to have their needs met which may be enough to give this place more stars than what I've given. read more

When you have to face the inevitable, Fry Memorial is the best at giving your loved ones the respect they deserve when being laid to rest. Several grandparents and my uncle's services were handled by Fry... Then our mother passed away August 2014. There was no question as to where the services would be held. Don assisted us with my mom's service, and he was excellent. He made us laugh when we didn't think we could. He was a breath of fresh air. We felt no pressure as far as pricing goes. In fact, he didn't even mention price during the initial visit. We had found a beautiful casket online and had already made the decision to purchase it and when we told him that, that was it. There was no discussion about changing our minds. After the services, there was paperwork to handle regarding life insurance, etc and Joelleen was very helpful. I don't remember the other staff members that assisted, but everyone at Fry will forever be in our debt and hold a special place in my heart. Even the two gentlemen that came to pick up our mother at home were in suits and EXTREMELY respectful when handling our mother. The process they used to prepare her for transport to Fry was beautiful. It wasn't just putting her in a bag and leaving - they had a special cloth and sheets and were just ginger when touching her. I was overcome with grief, but I was so impressed with their professionalism. Thank you, Fry Memorial, for everything. read more

My family has had 2 family members pass away within 5 months of each other. Joelleen helped my family with both funerals. She went above and beyond to make sure we had exactly what we wanted & needed. She's very professional and VERY good at her job. ~Jannelle read more

I can't say enough about this place. I've attended funerals here in the past but never had to deal with the personnel directly. They were all so caring and made the whole process go so smooth. We had a longer funeral than originally planned and the staff were so accommodating. We mainly worked with Kim but then Don who prepared our dad's body and also did the cremation was so sweet and caring and had a lot of compassion. He filled several urn's for us. We cannot say enough about this Fry Memorial Chapel in Tracy. Our community is lucky to have a great memorial chapel. read more
