Buklad- Merlino Memorial Home

Chris and Mary are so kind, understanding, and gentle. Our family has trusted them through the years and passing of multiple loved ones to provide memorial services. We can’t thank them enough for the comfort and peace they have been able to give us.

Chris and Mary are simply the best, without exception. They are deeply caring and comforting, and were profoundly helpful in our time of need. They have our family’s eternal gratitude, have our very highest recommendation. I would give 10 stars if possible.

My wife’s father passed away and I could not go with her to the funeral for personal reasons. Needless to say I was very worried even though she had people to support her. Turns out Mary and Chris were also supportive, caring, hands on and made this a comfortable blessing for her. I have also spoken with Mary on several occasions and found her to be knowledgeable and above and beyond helpful. Even though we live in South Carolina knowing how much they helped her gave us both peace and comfort.

Our family was very pleased with Buklad-Merlino funeral home. Their team was kind, knowledgeable, and responsive before, during, and after the funeral. Funerals are surprisingly expensive and while we paid more than we expected, we found everything to be reasonable and fair. The facilities in Yardville location met our needs perfectly and Buklad-Merlino's team was there throughout the process - even working with the restaurant for the repast. Chris and Mary were very responsive always gave us good advice and options. We never felt like we were being sold on something we didn't want or need. I would recommend them to anyone.

My mother in law passed suddenly and unexpectedly on New Years and I can’t say enough about the staff at Buklad Memorial Home. Chris and Mary were truly a Godsend at this time of horrific pain for myself and my family. I can’t say enough about their kindness, understanding, and going the extra mile to give my mother in law the most perfect sendoff. They were so helpful and accommodating-I can’t express that enough. We are eternally grateful and will never use another funeral home.

Kind and caring, Chris and Mary made a very difficult few days much easier helping with all the final decisions and arrangements for my Mother. They are amazing and cover all the details you might forget while grieving. I recommend them highly.

Chris there are no words to fully express how much gratitude I have towards you & everyone at Buklad-Merlino. You made this moment a special one. Moments like these it’s hard to trust, our minds are everywhere. You gave us that peace & sense of ease. Everything came out beautifully & I’m glad we came to you. Thank you so much buddy we love you for everything you did! 5 stars aren’t enough!

We have lost 2 family members in 42 days. You can't begin to imagine the pain in sorrow in our hearts. As soon as we called Chris from Bukland Merlino to pick up our loved ones from the hospital, he told us that he would take care of getting them right away. It gave us great comfort knowing this. Making all of the arrangements were so stress free. Chris and his team made our family look like themselves down to how they normally wear their hair. The entire staff is so kind! They thought of everything! We couldn't have been in better hands!

Chris and his crew are the best. They make challenging times very easy to deal with at all levels. Highly recommend. Thanks from the McMahon family.

The care and compassion the staff have taken in my family members passing has been outstanding. Chris and Mary have been so generous with helping me take care of everything with me being out of state.

Chris, Mary, and the rest of the team were awesome start to finish. They really made a very personal, painful, and sad time so much easier. Superb people! Highly recommend.

This place is beautiful my best friends Mom’s viewing was held here and hundreds of people came and it was large enough to accommodate that.

I can’t say enough about the kind caring staff at Bukland Merlino Hamilton. Chris was awesome with helping us deal with the loss of our father.
