We recently lost a love one and acquired the services of Halpin- Bitecola Brookdale. We had numerous appointments with other funeral homes, but Melanie was our first. After meeting with her, the decision was very easy to make . Melanie was very thorough and compassionate and explaining every single detail . We received numerous compliments from family and friends about the service. I would definitely recommend their services to everyone I know. We are so thankful and grateful to Melanie and her staff.

Melanie Bitecola is very respectful, professional, comforting and patient. The layout and space was very accommodating and gave us a sense of comfort. We will use their services again. It was our first time making arrangements for a loved one and Halpin - Bitecola made it an easier transition where we did not have to do anything but comfort each other. They handled everything in a respectful, comforting, and expedited manner. Thank you.

Our family cannot say enough about the beautiful services for our mother along with the kindness & compassionate support we received from everyone with Halpin-Bitecola Funeral Home. From arranging care & transport thru hospice to coordinating every aspect of her visiting hours, funeral mass, and burial, Dan and Melanie Bitecola are so genuine and walked us through every step of planning and were so kind & responsive to our every need and request. We especially loved that we could honor our mother’s request to play her favorite songs during her wake and we were encouraged to make things as personal as we wanted! We continue to receive compliments on how perfect and uplifting everything was. They took care of all those details you don’t think about, which was a blessing while grieving, and were so accommodating to have us visit the funeral home several times to emotionally prepare for the wake and funeral. Their gift of a tapestry blanket with our mother’s picture on it was truly stunning and a beautiful tribute gift we never expected, but will treasure forever. Would definitely **highly recommend** them to anyone in need of planning a loving memorial for their loved one.
