I found their setup to be unprofessional and inconsiderate. They have a woman at a desk working on a computer and answering phones right inside the front door. My assumption is that the intention is for her to act as a greeter, however the phone and the woman are loud enough to be heard in the viewing rooms, even through closed doors, where families are trying to grieve. If they want her doing office work, they should put her in an office and hire a separate person to greet. Every time I was there, she was on the phone and not able to help anyone walking through the door. As for the service at the gravesite, we were given half an hour and told they would charge extra if we weren't gone by then. Half an hour! Some guests were only just getting there as we were being told to leave.

Specifically, Jeanna Passaqua, the Funeral Director took the time to explain to the family our various options in detail. In fact at no point did she take advantage of the situation by trying to sell us additional services. On the contrary, she even helped us find an extraordinary Minister to conduct the service. As it is in most cases, the loss of a loved one is one of the hardest experience you can have in life . In my view we were very fortunate to find such a caring place where we could wish our loved one farewell with dignity. I would not hesitate to recommend this funeral home to anyone who needs these services. Thank you again Jeanna for all your help and guidance during this difficult time. from the Sosa family.

Ira shoe repair- avoid!…read more VERY disappointed with Ira. Twice I have dropped my beloved Frye boots off for a resoling and twice he has not been able to make a straight sole. I asked him to put the same height heals that were already on the boot originally, which were less than 1 in, the first time I went to pick up the boots, he had put two inch high heels on my riding boots with lug soles! The second time it looks like he cut the two inch heel in half off one shoe, and then made the entire pair oddly crooked and very different ways per boot.... The right foot sole as well as the heels, pronate inward and the left foot sole and heel pronates outward! The shoe sits to the left of center- half an inch above where the arch is.... and one boot sits on the right of center, half an inch above where the arch is. Neither shoe has a centered sole. Neither is centered on the ball of the foot as is normal for boots and any shoes so you have some balance..... This time, it looks like he took one of the two inch heels and cut them in half and used the same heel for both boots. The heels are also supposedly new but they are all gouged up, with visible chips out of them, which obviously wouldn't last long, when wearing. The soles don't even lay evenly under the ball of the foot, but more toward the arch which is strange, and in addition to the heels the shoes pronate and lay on the arch part of the boot not the ball of the foot! I'm likely to fall wearing these shoes the way they resoled them to feel like marbles, completely unbalanced underneath. When I brought them to him he said they could do it, and he had other lug soled boots in his shop when I dropped off mine. Said it would be fine. When I returned it the first time, and I showed him and asked him why he put two inch heels on English riding boots, he said "oh I see what you want I will fix it." Even though I had given him pictures of what I wanted and he had the actual original soles on the boots to follow for height, as his guide. It still not fixed even this second time of taking the shoes back all the way from Palm Coast to Ormond Beach, for repair to Ira. When I got them the first time I asked him where the Polish had been because they always said that they polish the boots when they return them. No polish. He said he would polish the boots. So I got crooked heels and soles the second time and still no polish! Not sure what happened because they have some great reviews about their work -- but that was his dad who had a quality focus to not only remember an order but actually to fulfill it properly. His dad's quality is NOT the new IRA and sons store that reopened. Because of the reviews for his dad, we were willing to drive all the way there from Palm Coast to Ormond- but this is not even ok nor passible work at all, and he's had the boots since May... and charged me nearly $200 for this terrible job that now means I can't wear the boots..... This is not acceptable and I wanted to warn people not to go there anymore.

My story starts when I first contacted Baldwin Brothers Funeral Home - Ormond Beach on April 26, 2018. Lisa Kay Cook- Ormond Beach location, was the first associate that I spoke with regarding the funeral arrangements for my dad. What I loved about Lisa was that she was generously compensate regarding my concern. Lisa even offered to meet me after hours to have my initial meeting with the organization. In addition, she worked all weekend on my contract and made sure to stay in contact with me regarding the process. Lisa you were great, and I truly appreciate your personal and professional support. In my opinion, Lisa truly established a personal one on one relationship with me and this would be the same experience that I would have with each member associated with my arrangements. The next associate that I would encounter would be Christina Stanley- Funeral Director, Ormond Beach location. Christina was great in keeping me informed regarding how the process would go for my family. In addition, she provided me with brochures and pamphlets that allowed me to focus on the tasks that would be ahead of me. Christina was also instrumental in the beginning and ending stages of my arrangement process.This would include her support in starting the death certificate process for my dad. What I like most about her support with this task is that she was very detailed to facts to ensure there were no errors. While I initially choose the Ormond Beach location, I would soon change my mind and select the Port Orange, FL location for my services. This being said, I appreciated the fact that Christina and Lisa maintained their relationship with me although I would now work with the Port Orange location. Brian Gifford- Funeral Director, of Port Orange was very accommodating to my needs. In fact, he worked closely with Christian on many issues associated with my arrangements. Never did Brian display any negative behavior for having to work with another office to support the preparation of service for my late dad. What impressed me most about Brain was the way he conducted himself during the funeral process. Brian interacted with my mother and other family members and expressed his condolences for our loss. In addition, he met with family and friends as they entered the funeral home and greeted them in a friendly professional manor. Brain also oversaw the audio and visual task associated with our service. Brian did a wonderful job and took the responsibility and stress involved with these tasks away from me so that I could be apart of the service for my dad. Overall, I am truly impressed with my experience with Baldwin Brothers and would recommend their professional services to any one in need of affordable, professional, superb service. I thank every associate that had a share in making this hard time as smooth as possible. Trust me, you will not go wrong by entrusting Baldwin Brothers to care for the last wishes of your loved ones. Thank You!!! Baldwin Brothers for all you have done! Sincerely, Mr. Newton C/O The Rutledge Family
