My mother passed Jan 2023 in Jersey City Med CTR and their services where stress free & professional. I must have called Matt 20X's for little details just to put my family & friends at ease! Very understanding & comfortable! The app they provide will help you share all info & memories pertaining to any services/wake or memorial you would host for family & friends. It was great to send out a link by phone and Facebook and not be bombarded with calls and repeat yourself over and over. Even family out of the country were able to participate via app. You can order an Urn separately once the ashes are prepared. I was so nervous at first and took a chance! That is why reviews are so important! I would absolutely recommend their services & hope this helps someone decide in their time of need. Thank you!

I used Keepsake Memories for funeral programs after the passing of my brother. Because of the…read moretiming of the funeral, I had very little time to get the programs printed and felt pressured to make a quick decision. I reached out to Anthony, and unfortunately, I regret using his company. Looking back, I should have listened to the three red flags I noticed, but I moved forward out of desperation. Red Flag #1: I requested to see a single printed copy before all programs were printed. Anthony said that would not be possible, even though I was willing to meet him anywhere at his convenience. Red Flag #2: I asked for a specific delivery time. He said he could only guarantee the programs would arrive before the funeral service, but could not provide any further details. Red Flag #3: I asked if I could pay a portion upfront and the remainder upon receiving the programs. He required full payment before printing. Anthony did deliver the programs before the service, but the quality was very poor. Although the paper weight was what we discussed (still thinner than expected), the bigger issue was the print quality. The images I sent were full-bleed (printed to the edges), but the programs I received had white borders around them, and the print quality looked like something produced on a home printer. In my discussion with Anthony regarding my dissatisfaction with my order, he mentioned sending me pictures of previous work, but there was no way for me to know my programs would have borders when the original files I provided did not, nor that the print quality would be so disappointing. Thankfully, I also ordered another set of programs from an online company. They charged me less, delivered within 48 hours, used glossy cardstock, and provided a proof before payment so I could see exactly what the finished product would look like. Using Keepsake Memories/Anthony was a mistake. I'm sharing this so others understand what they may be getting into when working with Keepsake Memories, especially during a vulnerable time when families are grieving and under pressure.

My youngest brother died suddenly, and we had to make arrangements from another state. So you could imagine by the time it came to choosing a program I was overwhelmed. Then Anthony said " I got you" and I told him about my brother (school teacher who loved and breathed everything super hero) Anthony creates a X Men Themed program (attached for your amazement) Sonny our brother was super imposed on wolverines body, hero's gathered around his casket and mourned him. The art work and imagination was incredible!!! This wasn't some stock card ! Anthony listened and created a theme for our beloved Sonny. He even made key chains for us. He DID THIS IN 24 hours !!!!

She gave me the information and said when I did come to visit they would give me a map and show me how to get there. I asked if I could ask for her when I do go, she said yes and that her name is Olga. A couple of weeks later I did visit the cemetery and found Olga working in the office. She remembered our conversation and gave me a map with the directions, she was very kind and offered her condolences for my loss. I was actually thinking I would be given the information and be on my own. However it was totally opposite, she was very helpful, knowledgeable, and her voice and tone was that of an Angel. She made what was for me a very difficult situation totally manageable. Thank you Olga for all your help, you're a very special person.
