We have a family history with DuBois Funeral Home so when my mother died we chose to go with…read moreDuBois. The morning my mom died, we met as a family and took a call from the funeral director. In our first conversation, he made a comment about being tired because he had to get up early to pick up my mother's body and "had to be up all night". A couple of days after my mom died, my dad made a comment about not knowing when he would get her ring. As he had quite a bit on his plate, I told him I would call the funeral home on his behalf to inquire about her ring. I called and reached the funeral director. When I asked about her wedding band, his first response was to say she wasn't wearing one. I explained that she was. My mom had bad arthritis and her ring couldn't be removed due to her swollen knuckle, so there was no question that she was wearing her ring. The funeral director again told me that the ring must have been left at the hospital. I reiterated that her ring was on her finger as it could not be removed. At this point, the funeral director informed me that her ring was cremated and with her ashes. I was upset to hear this, but I told myself that there was nothing that could be done and prepared to exit the call. As I was about to exit the call, Mr. Dubois asked me "Why didn't you tell me you wanted the ring?" I stopped Mr. Dubois and asked him to please not put the missing ring on my family. In response, Mr. Dubois stated that he hoped someday I could understand how difficult his job was. I was so taken aback by his response that I repeated what he said incredulously, to which he replied that I was obviously an "angry woman". I was again shocked that this was his response. When I stated that I was upset that my mom's ring was gone, Mr. Dubois responded that I was lying and that my mother's ring wasn't gone, it was with her ashes. After this back-and-forth, I asked him to please stop as I was grieving and upset that I couldn't give my dad his wife's ring. Mr. Dubois told me I had an anger problem, and that I "wouldn't accept his apology", before hanging up on me. Saying "you won't accept my apology" isn't an apology. As the ring was gone and we were in the middle of planning her memorial, I did my best to move forward. On the day of the memorial service, my family and I set up memorial tables with mementos of my mom's life. Once the service started, we were very busy greeting visitors and weren't paying attention to the memorial tables. After the service, we realized that the funeral home staff had covered the tables with programs and the sign-in book - right on top of the mementos we had laid out. They didn't ask us if they could do this or request we move anything--they just put them right on top. My mom's ring and a smooth service couldn't bring her back, but not having her ring, in particular, is a loss we feel. No one is perfect and mistakes are understandable. Mr. Dubois' response was not.

The room the service was held in was roomy and comfortable. Kudos for making what could have been a very sad day one that was filled with pure love.

Gardner is the usual funeral home used by many of my family, friends and neighbors. I think it's because of the location. To me, it can't be much else. This is your "typical" yuck factor funeral home in my opinion. Ugly, outdated, wallpaper and a funky stench, with just a touch of creepy & coldness in the air. I took a mint after our first "stop" and it was actually a soft, nasty/stale candy instead. I spit it in the trash. The one employee didn't know where my friend, the DAUGHTER of the deceased, was and looked at me clueless. Not good AT ALL. It's nice that they have tissue boxes a-plenty and I believe, small water bottles as well. The only decor, if you will, that I liked, was the cage of cute finches.

They were very attentive, helpful, and made us feel that we were the most important clients they had that whole week, often offering to pick things up for us, picking up every call, and they all worked around the clock, making sure we knew their doors were always open for us. They helped with our displays and State Police presence (my husband was a NJ State Trooper), directing traffic, and they were also very compassionate. If I have one criticism, it would be that the guest book be situated in a more prominent position, as many people never signed it and many said they did not see it.

So glad I did and so glad to have met Ray and Jennifer from Kelley's who worked so hard to make a difficult process flow seamlessly in such a calm and relaxed manner. They accepted my online purchased casket without hesitation, accommodated my every request, and treated everyone with respect and dignity. No one needs to be "upselling" or creepiness at such a difficult time and these guys understood that. They discussed all aspects of the arrangements in a straight forward and sensitive manner without using cliche language or euphemisms. The home feels like a large home, a warm place where family and friends can gather safely to comfort one another and say good bye. We had all the time in the world and everything was beautifully coordinated. The only draw backs were we had to bring our own wide screen TV and DVD player and credit cards were not accepted, but I'm not sure funeral homes in general are as tech savvy as other businesses these days and we did get a discount for early payment. Minor drawbacks given the professionaI and caring services we received. I highly recommend this business for anyone's funeral needs.

I was impressed with the two men who guided me where to park (I was arriving rather late) so that I could be in the line of vehicles to the graveside ceremonies. They then asked if I knew where the home was (There are several funeral homes on this stretch of Paulsboro roadway.). Walking into the funeral home I could see the home's representatives positioned where they could answer questions but not in the way of any visitor. The viewing room was attractive and not too somber. There was a well thought out pattern to share condolences with the family. The funeral director's role in the ceremony was handled professionally without being presumptive of the family's and clergy's role in the service. As I left still mourning my friend's unexpected passing I thought that at least he was given a quality farewell by this funeral home.
