The young man from the funeral home who directed our loved one's service played the piano and sang like a pro--he was gracious, empathetic, and quietly dignified. They took extra care to find a preacher from my relative's country to lead the services--that was such a thoughtful touch. Please move away from money grubbing funeral homes like the one in Canarsie that everyone goes to -- they don't care about you nor your family member. Harmony proves that you can provide an important service to your community without emotionally nor financially blackmailing families to pay for unnecessary costs. Their prices are extremely fair and their service and attention to detail is top-notch.

I came across Inpeace. The care of the team and also the flexibility made them the ultimate choice that I ended up going with. They have a quick turn around time to have your loved one cremated rather than waiting weeks to get your loved one the rest that they truly need. They were also very flexible with the payment method specially when you need to get the process moving. Any questions I had was answered with confidence or if they did not know, they would look for the answer and get back to me as soon as they were able. If you are going through what I am going through, I highly recommend Inpeace as the premier cremation service without any doubt.

Kensico was established in 1889 under the Rural Cemetery Act of 1847, a legislative response to…read moreovercrowded urban burial grounds. The cemetery originally spanned 250 acres of rolling farmland. By 1905, Kensico expanded to 600 acres, though it was later reduced to 461 acres when part of the land was sold to the neighboring Gate of Heaven Cemetery in 1912. The grounds were designed with a park-like aesthetic: winding lanes, ponds, shade trees, and statuary that evoke both serenity and grandeur. It is much more peaceful than the flat lawn-like cemeteries but it does make finding your way a bit more challenging. Notable interments include composer Sergei Rachmaninoff, actress Anne Bancroft, author Ayn Rand, and Baseball Hall of Famer Lou Gehrig.
