Trumbo's Funeral Chapel Inc

“I buried my mother on May 29, 2019. I knew from past experience, that Trumbo Funeral Chapel was the only place for my mother. Mr. Telesford was extremely professional, with the ability to put me at ease. He never made me feel rushed to make any decisions and was so understanding of my dealing with family mishaps. Seeing how stressed I was, most funeral directors would have taken full advantage of me, but Mr. Telesford was understandable. I received kindness, professionalism and a true caring from each staff. I was so comfortable making arrangements that I felt like I was sitting in my livingroom. God bless them for their service to the community”

“My family and I were devastated over the unexpected passing of my uncle, who lived in NYC for over 45 years. He lived on the upper west side so my family and I, who are from out of town, wanted to locate a funeral home that was close to my uncle's church and home. Unfortunately, we've been through the funeral arrangement process before with my father's passing 5 years ago. We knew we wanted to visit a few funeral homes in person to ensure we were choosing the right place. We first visited Trumbo's as it had amazing reviews on Google. We called in and let Trumbo's know we wanted to speak to someone about arrangements, and met with Ashton. As soon as we walked in, we knew it was not the place. Ashton was kind, but the level of promptness and professionalism was clearly missing. He wanted me and my family to call the cemetery to find out how much opening costs, and details were. When I questioned why he wouldn't do it, as funeral homes are supposed to help families who are grieving, he said well okay I guess I can. Our family is paying YOU, the funeral home, so we can grieve during this trying time. I asked if there would be an online obituary posting that we could share with family and friends to easily provide communication of arrangements - he said no they don't do that. The funeral home itself is extremely outdated, we didn't feel confident in choosing this place to take care of arrangements seamlessly. In terms of caskets, he had a binder of pictures, whereas the funeral home we ended up choosing called Crestwood, had a small room of quarter sized caskets to visually show what we were paying 7K+. Caskets at Trumbo's were actually MORE expensive then Crestwood, which was cleaner, more updated, and professional from beginning to end. The funeral home you choose is the place family and friends will be visiting during the wake, and this place was just incredibly underwhelming for the 4.9 stars google reviews showed.”

“Love and family are what come to mind when I think about Trumbos funeral chapel. We were there at a time of sadness losing a beloved family member. Our spirit's were lifted and we left gaining 2 wonderful people that made us feel like a part of their family. The words of Reverend Ferguson gave comfort to our hearts and souls. I highly recommend for a place to put your loved one to rest. Care, respect and love are given to every service”
