From the owner: Maceroni Funeral Home was founded by Bernardo Maceroni on Federal Hill in Providence in 1927. From…read morea meager store front location on Atwells Avenue, Bernardo's son Anthony moved the funeral home to North Providence in 1956. It was one of the first facilities constructed specifically as a funeral home in Rhode Island. After the death of Anthony Maceroni in 1974, his son Bernard became the 3rd Generation to own and operate the funeral home. Even though he continues to be very active in all aspects of the funeral home, Bernie recently passed on the tradition to his nephew Anthony Hamel, who is the great-grandson of the founder Bernardo Maceroni. Anthony represents the 4th generation dedicated to compassionate and professional service to the community.

The building itself is very well kept. The parkig lot is large. They have several private viewing rooms. A staff member is there at the door to open both upon entry, and exit. Once inside, another staff member is there pointing you in the direction of the appropriate room. At this last 'celebration life' we attended, we were the only ongoing event (a good thing I would say all things considered) and he was handing out booklets of the deceased with family photos and the obituary. For those who keep such things, a very nice, high quality memento. There was a guest sign in book (as is usual) before entering the room. This particular family had a large turn out to celebrat the life of their deceased loved one. Along side the flower arrangements sent to the family, they had on display personal momento's from the deceased. Items that were a clear indication of how much that person had clearly enjoyed their life, and what type of life they led. It was very much a celebration of the life they had lived. After the receiving line which included siblings, children, nieces and nephews, there was another area of personal items and photos. In all, the event took up the space of two rooms with plenty of seats set out for the ceremony. The rooms have retractable walls that allow the space to be extended as needed while still buffering sound should there be more than one event happening at a time. There was a podium set up for the ceremony officient and a sound system so everyone could hear. Figuring out where to hold a funeral is a terribly stressful event. J J Duffy does a very professinal job and clearly are able to accommodate a families desire to allow the display of personal items reflective of their loved one for all to remember and enjoy.
