Testimonials


I tell everyone about Michael and his compassion. I have dealt with him twice and the deceased were not from New Milford. Other funeral homes in the county are so cold but people think they must use the local Funeral parlor-not true! The Boulevard is smaller BUT it is cheaper and definitely more agreeable. I experienced peace at a moment of unbearable grief. Thank you Michael. You are an angel!

As we all know, when you have a loved one pass away it hits really hard! You must quickly go to the reserve tank and find the energy to do things like make "the call" to have your loved one taken care of after they pass. My mom passed away at 4:50am. Michael had told me, during a call that we had a few days prior (anticipating that my mom would pass soon), that regardless of the hour, to call his main number and there would be someone to take my call. Well, at 5:10am on that sad morning, I did (had to) do just that. A nice lady, providing an answering service function, took my call and said that I would receive a call back. What I didn't think would happen is that I'd receive that return call from Michael 20 minutes later, from his home, after he had only been home for about 30 minutes. Yes...He had to pull an all-nighter due to dealing with an issue arranging the sending of a loved one remains from another family overseas. So, here is Michael calling back after such a tough night and he was as nice, calm, caring and respectful to me after my mom had just passed! Such a nice gesture! You can be professional (and should be), but to be that nice and helpful at 5:30am, after his tough night, was extremely appreciated. On that phone call, he calmly went through the steps that needed to be done. By 10:30am, my brother and I met him at the funeral home and took care of the arrangements for cremation. That was on a Friday. By Monday, my mom's ashes were in my possession! What Michael and his staff did for me and my family is really special! In this fast paced world we all live in now, it's really hard to find the kind of care and attention to detail that Michael provided. Thank you, so much, Michael! Sincerely, Robert Randall Rashkow

I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional service provided by Michael and his team. From the moment we arrived, the staff demonstrated profound empathy and understanding, making a challenging situation feel a little more manageable.

Their efficiency was remarkable, every detail was handled swiftly without feeling rushed. They guided us through each step, ensuring that we were comfortable and informed. It was clear that they truly cared about honoring my grandmother's life and legacy.

What impressed me most was their attention to detail. Each aspect was handled with care, allowing us to focus on what mattered most—celebrating a beautiful life.

Thank you Michael and staff for all you did for my father & mother-in-law and my own mother!! Michael did a wonderful job for my farher-in-law John who passed away in Florida during Hurricane Sandy and he was brought up here to Boulevard Funeral Home!! The power went out and Michael was able to get a generator so we could have John’s wake!! He remembered John when my mother-in-law Paulette passed in 2021!! Then again when my mom passed in 2022!! Even though mom was from Dumont, I chose to come to Michael, because it felt like the place to be to have her wake!! He even came to my house in Paramus to get Mom’s clothes for her burial!!! Thank you so much, Michael, for everything you’ve done for our family!!!

Dealing with 2 funeral homes over 1500 miles apart Michael made this transition effortless. I could not have managed the details to which he took care of. He made every detail run smoothly, efficiently and the utmost professionalism and care that I am so grateful. You could not ask for a better man to deal with !

Thank you Michael and staff for your compassionate care. You handled the arrangements for both my father and mother in a timely and respectful fashion. Thank you for making the last images I have of my father and mother ones that I feel represent them and the way I wanted to remember them.

Last year 2021 my Dad & I pre-arranged his funeral with Michael. Michael made it easy guiding us through with the compassion.

When my Dad passed away this January 2022, Michael and his Team showed us kindness above and beyond. They all were thoughtful, professional and considerate to us, they were all such a comfort.

I cannot thank you for being there for us during our most difficult time.

Thank you & kind regards,
