Linda

I can't begin to express my appreciation for the absolute wonderful, caring, compassionate and extremely accommodating funeral service for my husband. It was so amazing to have everything done to such perfection. The video, the picture display, the arrangement of flowers, the table display of my husband's creative endeavors as well as the placement of his Stop & Shop apron which I appreciated so much as well as the funeral service itself. That was about as perfect as it could have been. Such a fitting tribute, he certainly deserved it and I and my family thank you profusely for that. On another note, my father passed away in January and he donated his body to Quinnipiac's medical school. We recently received his ashes and I intend on having a graveside burial. However, I'd like to wait until spring, no need to do it in the wintertime and I would like to have you take care of the arrangements. Most likely sometime in May so I will be in touch.

Dear Carmine: I write to thank you and the Sisk Brothers staff for the excellent arrangements provided and care you gave my sister Stacey 0'Connor's recent wake and funeral. We realize that you had a significant challenge in order to provide the open coffin we requested and I feel you did a wonderful job that was greatly appreciated by our family members. I especially appreciated the timing and guidance provided for the funeral. The trips over the highway to Branford and from Branford back through New Haven to St. Lawrence were on schedule, efficient and very well executed. Bob Woody did a masterful job throughout.

The Staff of Sisk Brothers Our family has always relied upon your services when our family members have passed away. There are very good reasons for that. Recently, your help was needed once again for the funeral of our Mom on January 22, 2013. We, her children, and our extended family remain in awe of your professionalism, compassion, flexibility, and knowledge. Our mom's funeral was pre-paid, and most of the family's wishes were noted several years ago. We'd like to extend a special thanks to Carmine who made sure that all of our requests were honored, and that family members were well-guided and made comfortable throughtout the vistation hour,Funeral Mass and burial. But probably the best gift that the family received, due to your efforts, was our moms appearance. She looked beautiful, in stark contrast to the way she'd appeared in the last days of her life. She truly looked at peace. Please accept our gratitude for a job well-done! Carmine and his colleagues at Sisk's are positive role models for others in your business to emulate. Many Thanks.
