Since I had used John Ridouts on the Southside for my mom and dad, that's where I went again. I was greeted by the staff and treated very kindly. I was taken to a room and a gentleman named Keith came in. (Sorry I don't remember his last name). He explained everything to me and guided me every step of the way. Even after the funeral was over, Keith called me several times just to see how was doing. He truly cared about me and my feelings. I would highly recommend Ridouts, Southside to anyone that has to plan or pre plan a funeral. I myself have pre planned my funeral to help relieve my family of the stress of doing it at the last minute.

Starting with Clifton, he was hands down professional and responsive. He made what was initially a hard process to handle, less stressful and for that we are grateful. The location accommodates everything (programs, cremation, chapel usage, and additional keepsakes to honor your loved ones). My father requested to use them and we cherished his request, so glad we did. Every staff member was friendly and offered to assist us. While I know this type of service is the last thing anyone would want to utilize, when considering planning the arrangements of your loved one, contact them. You won't regret your decision. Thank you again.

I have always been curious about the building and have always admired the vintage neon sign out front. That first time I passed by was now about 16 years ago. And until recently I had never been in. As with any review of a funeral home, it comes under unfortunate circumstances. I did not personally work with the team at Ridout's since I was there for the passing of a friend's parent. So the review is based on the building itself. It was very easy to park and the inside was very nice. Plenty of room for a line to form. And they had water and tissues readily available. It seems like a really good facility for such a tough time.
