Funeral Home Experience: A Tale of Two Reviews
Unacceptable Services
One reviewer, Nicole Ferrara, had a horrific experience with the funeral home. Her family's loved one was not stored properly, and the body was left in a non-refrigerated office for 17 days. To make matters worse, the funeral home did not take responsibility for their mistake and even sued the family for the balance. The reviewer's experience was marred by a lack of apology, unprofessionalism, and unethical business practices.
Exceptional Care and Compassion
On the other hand, Lisa Zickefoose had a completely opposite experience with the same funeral home. She praised Lori Vicchiarelli and the entire staff for their professionalism, compassion, and attention to detail during her mother's funeral. The reviewer appreciated the care and effort put into arranging a beautiful farewell service, ensuring a smooth and dignified ceremony despite inclement weather.
