Testimonials

Excellent - staff and all the arrangements. Upon our initial visit/meeting with Gino - he was very caring, he made sure he would take care of everything and he did. Gino was very professional and easy to work with. Very caring, extremely professional with a personal touch. We didn't have to worry about anything because we knew Gino and Buranich would take care of it, which was very comforting.

My mom and entire family were very pleased with the service we received. Gino was caring and compassionate at a time when we needed that the most. Due to Covid it was not the send off we would of liked for our 100 year old dad. However, the livestreaming was awesome for those who wanted to join in. We also loved when Gino invited us all up to touch the box and send our love with Dad. Thank you so very much!

Considering our sad situation, everyone at Buranich helped us with every detail in a professional, but also a caring attitude. Our overall experience was exceptional. We worked with Matt first mainly in March for my dad's service. Then in November with Jason. Both were excellent and very receptive to questions and so helpful with everything. I asked Jason so many questions. He was amazing! I feel that Buranich, especially Matt and Jason became friends with us. We felt that they cared.

Gino made planning the funeral easy. I dreaded it and he just led us through the process. I know the four of us just appreciated his knowledge and leadership, while also meeting our special needs or requests. Having dealt with all four of you, you all met and exceeded expectations. You made it easy on us. I knew all we had to do was ask, knowing Gino would take care of it.

The four directors are sincere compassionate people. They go above and beyond to meet your needs in a difficult time. They know their business and can lead you through decisions that need to be made. I cannot say enough positive of the care they give to your loved one and the entire family. During this pandemic they do their best to make accommodations to meet your wishes and keeping everyone safe.

Gino and everyone at Buranich, offer kind, courteous, and caring service. They make a difficult time easier in every and any way they can. We could get in touch with some one very quickly.

Matt & staff did an exceptional, professional, & caring job with our Mother’s funeral arrangements. As Buranich proved 19 years ago with our father’s funeral ( Sam Sr), we knew we could count on you for support, so we could focus on our Mom and family.

Patricia and Family

March 28, 2020

Overall Matt did an outstanding job to help me and my family through this tough time. He was always there if we had questions and bent over backwards for us. Thank you! He let the family decorate the space like we wanted to make it a kid friendly place and memorable experience. The pictures and book were amazing. The thank you cards are the best idea I have ever seen. Great job and Thank you!

Craig and Family

March 18, 2020

It was the most difficult time of my life and Matthew made it bearable. He took care of everything from life insurance to extra prayer cards and DVD's to the constantly changing of pallbearers. He took care of it all so all I had to do was show up and focus on my family. We can't thank Matthew enough for his kindness, compassion and understanding. He let us take our time when we needed it most and wasn't phased with my young niece and autistic nephew at the planning meeting and wake. He made sure we had the opportunity and time to do whatever we needed to say goodbye and get closure, from extra time at the cemetery to helping my disabled father to the graveside. Matthew was there assuring us it was ok and nothing was too much trouble. We can't thank Matthew enough for being there for our family in our most painful time. He made it just a little bit easier and bearable for us all. I hope that when my time comes my family will have someone as understanding, compassionate and as patient as Matthew.

Christine and Family

February 03, 2020

Very professional and caring from start to completion - Thank you for taking care of both mom and dad's final arrangements. When Gino mentioned that because dad was a Coast Guard veteran, he would arrange to have the Coast Guard present at the graveside, we were very pleased knowing that dad was truly being honored for his service. This was truly the "icing on the cake" for a beautiful service.

Ted

January 28, 2020

Due to the emotional situation at hand, Gino led us through the process with ease and compassion. As I mentioned before, Gino made us all feel like we were here and were his responsibility to serve us. He answered all questions and was very patient with all of us. He's a keeper. The service went off without a "hitch" and Bill would be pleased with his "send off". We sincerely thank all involved.

Gino, all services provided were of superior quality. It's hard to say that they "exceeded expectations" since my expectations of Buranich are so high to begin with. On a scale of 1-5 I would rate this entire experience as a 5.

Henry

April 10, 2019

This was our second experience with Buranich attending to our needs for our son. As before our experience was excellent. Our good friend Matt anticipated our concerns and needs. We were very pleased with all aspects of the experience. Both days for calling hours and funeral were weather terrible. In spite of the severe conditions every aspect was well coordinated and precise.

Joseph and Joan

April 02, 2019

Overall, the experience was above and beyond what I anticipated. Wonderful and welcoming feeling from everyone I had contact with. I experienced a comfort level with Matt Vincentini that was outstanding at this most difficult time. He was concerned and caring first and foremost and continued to give myself and my family all the information and details that were so necessary. His expertise and kind manner extend to this day.

Can't say enough about how Gino handled Missy's funeral. He went above and beyond. If I didn't know any better I'd think he had known her for a long time.

From the time they picked up Pat's body until they delivered her ashes we received caring and compassionate service. I've used them in the past and will continue in the future.

Nancy and Family

January 29, 2018

Matt and the entire Buranich Home family (Sam III, Kris, Corinne, Jason and Vince) treated me like family. The compassion, dignity and professionalism with which my family and I were treated throughout our entire journey is something I will never forget. The genuine respect shown for my Dad, the personal concern for me and my family, the consistent attention to detail and the continual, easy contact regarding matters pre-, during and post- services are many ways in which the Buranich Home staff went above and beyond. One request I made of Matt was to witness my Dad's entombment at St. Mary's Mausoleum. Matt went above the call of duty to make this happen. My Dad was with me when I entered this world. I was with him when he left this world (from Upstate Community) and, thanks to Matt's efforts, I was with him again when his body was laid to rest next to my Mom. There is absolutely no price I can put on this experience and, honestly, no way I can fully express my gratitude to Matt and the Buranich Home family for the comfort this experience gave to me. My Mom died in 2002 and for a brief moment in December of 2017, I could physically see my parents together with me, in the same space, for the first time in 15 years. Thank you so much for making this happen for me. Peace and Blessings.

Matt was fantastic to work with! He was not pushy or suggestive in any way of services or details that my mother had not desired. Always a smile and a welcomed side conversation about everyday life was truly appreciated as well. Matt was patient and understanding of our family dynamics as well. All of my concerns were addressed and my questions answered. Every detail was taken care of without hesitation. Thank you to everyone.

Excellent personal care for all meetings with arrangements by Matt. This is my first meeting with Matt as we have known Sam, Ann and Sam III for years and cannot say enough about Matt's addition to the Buranich business. It is with sincere appreciation for all his contact and guidance through all my mom's services.

As you know, this was an extremely difficult situation for our family, and you made us feel so at ease, and provided us with many options without making us feel pressured whatsoever. Your kindness and compassion is outstanding, and the services provided were so comforting and beautiful. There truly is a difference when choosing a funeral home.

Being our first experience with funeral planning it was 100% excellent-from the planning stages to the actual funeral. Each and every person attending mom's funeral remarked what a wonderful way it was to celebrate her life. The day was perfect if one can say that. Everything from beginning to end went so smoothly. As a family, and especially myself and my siblings cannot say enough about Matt! He was one of the most caring, considerate, and nicest people we have ever met. You should be more than proud to have him as a part of the Buranich family. He made a very difficult time in our lives so much easier to handle. I spoke with him at the end of the day but cannot thank him enough for all he did for us.

Linda and Family

Jim

Nothing about this process is easy, but it helped having staff who could anticipate everything I would need to know, before I even knew that I need to know. Wonderful job! Because of the time of year, one of my biggest worries was the burial process, and because my husband is being buried out of town, I had extra anxiety about needing to work with two different companies. Buranich took care of everything. Thank you.

The staff was friendly, kind and compassionate in every interaction; always allowing us to make this a personalized celebration of John's life, and not just a "cookie-cutter" funeral. My daughter-in-law said to me, "I see why you chose this funeral home."

Our experience was excellent. Sam’s attention to every detail from the calling hours to the memorial service and burial was appreciated. We had nothing to worry about ~ everything was taken care of for us. The care, consideration and genuine compassion meant a lot to our family. It helped make one of the toughest times in our lives a little easier.

Kara and Family

Dear Buranich Staff, I want to take this time to thank Sam and all your staff. From the moment we arrived at your funeral home to make all the arrangements, Sam (may the Lord bless you) showed his love and compassion for our family’s loss. He took his time as we made our decisions on all the details on Monday, June 23rd. Then on Wednesday, June 25th, the staff was amazing, they took care of every detail and looked after the needs of the family as well. Thank you all so much.

Linda and Family

Dear Buranich Staff, I do not want to single out anyone because I know you all played a part in the planning and carrying out the funeral for Linda. Someone at the funeral home (a relative) mentioned that he was speaking to another funeral director and your name came up. The man said a lot of funeral homes do it for the money, but Sam and his staff do it as a ministry. I thought how appropriate. You touch people at their most vulnerable time and are sensitive to all that is encompassed in their raw grief. Blessings to you.

Mary, Dan, and all the family

Thank you for treating my mom, my sister and me with such care and concern. I can’t imagine any other funeral home making people feel as valued and well cared for.

Kathryn

Thank you so much for everything you did in support of our family during my dad’s funeral services. You are all true professionals and masters at your services. Thank you sincerely!

I just wanted to express my gratitude to Sam Jr., Matthew and the entire Buranich family for your support after the death of my brother. Your professionalism and genuine compassion was greatly appreciated and will always be remembered by my family. Thank you.

They all expressed how kind and helpful everyone was and that helped to lessen our grief in a difficult time.
