Such as acknowledgment of who sent what flowers, who sent plants. I asked for acknowledgment of senders and also for the cards so that thank you could be sent.

All boxes on what was received such as a spray, a bouquet, plant, etc was left BLANK! Who does that, not professional. I didn't like the lack of attention to detail with body.

I could write pages about how wonderful Strano & Feeley Family Funeral Home was in caring for my…read morefamily during our time of grief. We physically lost two loved ones, and we would not go to anyone else but Strano & Feeley. The excellent customer service begins with the initial home call, taking possession of the deceased loved one (e.g., at home or hospital), then the intake meeting with the family. The clean calming atmosphere starts outside (e.g., fishpond) then continues inside with comfortable furniture and smiling staff to greet you. No matter which staff you receive for the intake meeting, they all conduct themselves with professionalism, care, and provided clear information on the various options. As a grieving loved one, I'd suggest you come to the table with your grief but an open mind and patience with your loved ones present with you and the staff. What I appreciated was for one loved one- we had all the answers prepared, for the other we were figuring out as we went along- staff provided time and space in the intake meeting for us to calmly figure things out. Having someone take notes in the family to compare with the staff's notes is always useful - they were always on point anyway but it's good to remember what you ordered and they will provide you a folder with information from the initial session as well. Any insurance or cemetery logistics were handled on the phone right away by the staff in the first session - which was amazing to watch them navigate the complex systems of care. We had a loved one cremated and another buried in a nearby state - the funeral home still took care of everything, just be sure to provide your photos, music and obituary timely. Nothing was overly complicated and if it was, they never showed it, just showed up for us in every way - we had no worries. When it was time to collect our loved one's things (e.g. urn or possessions not buried) they provide you with a beautiful bag of memories, some unexpected, that showed more care than we could have imagined. By the end of our grieving season this summer - this had become not only a funeral home but an appendage to our family. The staff will forever be a part of our loved ones' legacy. P.S. I would highly recommend the nearby Atterbury VFW - Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 3420 for a repast and their regular caterer Ms. Lori. Everyone was such a blessing and joy to work with, and they took care of absolutely everything including décor and the food was delicious.

From the very first phone call with Bill Doherty, to our appointment making arrangements, the multiple phone calls and e-mails with our questions and requests during the planning, to the actual service and burial, everything went amazingly smooth and with the utmost compassion and respect towards my family. My mom was Scottish and we wanted to honor her Scottish heritage. I dropped off several tartan table runners, scarves and various items for decorating the tables, as well as dozens of framed pictures, and a special table for guests to offer a Scottish toast to bid mom farewell. I thought I'd have to do the decorating myself, but was so relieved to see the place beautifully decked out as we arrived early for the family visitation hour. We didn't have to lift a finger, which was so appreciated. They arranged for a bagpiper at my request (he was amazing), arranged the details with our musician, created beautiful brochures and mass cards for the service, set up all the flowers, etc, and did a great job stopping traffic during the procession to All Saints Cemetery. I had so many compliments from family and friends on how classy and beautiful everything was. My family and I cannot thank Bill Doherty, Martha, Rose, and the rest of the wonderful staff enough for their compassion, patience, and overall professionalism. We will surly recommend your services to others when needed.

Ryan was very accommodating with preparing for the viewing and presentations of my mother-in law's life. Having not gone through this before, we had a lot of questions and apprehensions. All of our concerns were answered respectfully and delicately. My mother-in law was displayed with beauty and honor. Every detail was thought of for the viewing which enabled us to focus on family and friends who paid their respects.

She was matter-of-fact, cold, and lacked every ounce of empathy you would expect from someone in this line of work. The entire interaction was substandard from start to finish. They waited until the very last minute to confirm insurance causing services to be pushed back an entire week, stalled on shipping ashes the same day payment was made, and then had the nerve to complain about their staffing shortages like that was my problem. Let me be clear -- when a family is grieving, they don't want excuses, they want compassion and professionalism. I even called and left a message for the owner, and to this day have NEVER received a call back. That alone tells you everything you need to know about how little they value families in their care. The only bright spot was Carl -- the ONLY person at this establishment who acted like he had some sense and helped hold us together during this chaos. Honestly, I wouldn't let them bury my goldfish. You'd be better off buying an acre of land, grabbing a shovel, lighting a bonfire, and burying your loved one yourself. That would be handled with more care than what we experienced here. Do yourself a favor: skip this place. Your loved one deserves way better.

[Disclaimer -- This is a lengthy review, but it cannot be shortened given the quality of service…read morerendered.] The House of Wright delivered a level of care and professionalism that surpassed every expectation. Their compassion and respect created space for mourning that was sacred, seamless, and deeply dignified. From the moment we arrived, the team moved with quiet precision. They anticipated our needs--offering tissues, fanning us as we cried, and gently supporting the casket when I leaned on it in grief. The presentation of our loved one was beautiful. The orchestration of the pallbearers was flawless. Every detail, from subtle gestures to major transitions, was handled with best-in-class excellence. They directed our motorcade from church to final rest without a single disruption. Not one. Their vehicles--spotless and seemingly brand new--reflected extraordinary attention to detail. Our deepest gratitude to Joanne, Hazel, Chris, Keith, and Jordan. Their warmth, grace, and unobtrusive presence allowed us to grieve fully. They did not just serve--they held us. They felt like angels. Even a brief moment of friction during the contract process was resolved with remarkable speed--one call, under 15 minutes, from Brooklyn. That kind of responsiveness speaks volumes about the integrity of this enterprise. The House of Wright is the gold standard in funeral care. Their service is a gift to grieving families, and we are forever grateful. My dear Brother Mr. Wright, your high standards show. You have truly mastered your craft. Respect, Michael Nicholls on behalf of the Nicholls, McClelland, Nicholls-Pierce and Johnson families June 2025
