My brother-in-law Aaron passed away at Geisinger's Medical Center in Scranton on November 2024 and…read moresince we live out of state, we asked the hospital to recommend a funeral home. The recommended Edward Chomko in Scranton and we were blown away by their professionalism and attentiveness. It is a long running family business and we dealt with Andy. He went so far above and beyond, that it lifted such a huge burden in the midst of our grieving. He not only picked us up at our hotel since our car's " check engine" light was on, he called Geisinger's to make arrangements for us to pick up Aaron's belongings and he drove us there, came in and waited for us to pick them up and he drove us back to the hotel. He made the arrangements so easy and even sat with us when we had to speak to the local bank about closing the account and getting the death certificate over to them. It really restored our faith in humanity seeing how far out of his way Andy went; especially at a time when its hard to think clearly and grieve at the same time. I cannot recommend them enough.

Since my sister and I reside outside Pennsylvania we had to rely on input from Google research and input from local residents. In the end we selected the Edward J Chomko Funeral Home. Both Edward and his son Andy went above the call of duty (yes they served our country during war times) to ensure our mom received the much deserved burial. They provided sound advice and direction on coffin selection, processes for obtaining & adhering to state and local documentation requirements. Because of their impeccable service and professionalism my sister and I had ample time to mourn our loss. We will always be grateful to Edward and Andy for all their hard work and time in making this difficult time easier to deal with. God bless Edward and Andy and thanks for your service.

The entire family was appreciative, and my grandmother wanted me to pass along the following: "I want to extend my sincerest thanks for the care and compassion that was exhibited during my husband's funeral. I would do so in person if I could. I thought the funeral that you performed for him was perfect in every respect and I could not have asked for anything better. You were very courteous and every detail went according to plan. I could tell that it was very practiced, which is a big credit to your company. I feel lucky and know I am in good hands as my family has also selected you to take care of me when my time comes (but I hope it's not for a while!)."

I didn't want to choose any stars for this business because they honestly don't deserve any. Yelp…read morewon't allow you to post a review without at least choosing one star. That is the only reason this funeral home has a one star rating from me. As I stood next to my dead father in the hospital in New Jersey I was on the phone with Louis from this funeral home. After a few phone calls he felt it was better that he didn't have my father services at his facility. I told him that was their job and asked what his reason was for not allowing me to have the viewing for my father there. He said he just didn't think it was a good idea and that they just didn't have the staff. I don't believe that at all since it was six days advance notice and they had no other viewings scheduled for that day at that time. How horrible to do to someone at such a grieving time in their life. I do not recommend them at all.
