If we could have given Roni and Jeff Cruz, Bob Clifford and Phillip Padilla, 100 stars, we most definitely would have. These individuals were the angels who stepped forward to help our family when our beloved mother Jessie M. Lopez was preparing to leave this world. I will always remember the moment I met with Jeff; he asked me what was happening and proceeded to cut our meeting short, telling me to go back to our Mom's side, attend to her needs and to call if we needed anything. In less than 24 hours Our Heavenly Father called our precious Mama home and without hesitation, our angels from Berardinelli stepped forward. From that moment through the conclusion of her memorial reception, Roni, Jeff, Phillip and Bob did everything to assist us in every aspect to truly honor our Mother. and as she would say "Con La Ayuda Del Vecino" we were able to do so in a manner befitting of the beautiful person that Our Lord blessed us with. Jeff asked me why we chose Berardinelli Family Funeral Service and I told him it was because we wanted the best for our mother. Our Team of angels at Berardinelli exceeded our expectations throughout every aspect of this endeavor to truly celebrate her life. Our sincerest gratitude to you Roni, Jeff, Bob and Phillip for your incredible compassion, empathy and exceptional professionalism. You truly exemplified and intensified the Precious Light that our Mama reflected onto us all every moment we shared with her.
May God Bless You all for stepping forward and "Being There" for our Mother (Jessie) and for all our Family.
Sincerely,
Linda and Frank Lopez

Berardinelli Family Funeral Service was extraordinarily helpful in assisting my family in the passing of our mother, and coordinated seamlessly with a funeral home in another city/state in the transfer for interment. Jeffrey connected us with a very kind interfaith chaplain, who in turn put us in touch with an outstanding vocalist for the graveside service. They also held flowers for us, so that we could retrieve them the next day to bring to the cemetery. Much appreciated.

I highly recommend Berardinelli's to anyone who is needing funeral services. Jeffrey Cruz took such good care of my dad and provided such compassionate care to me and my sisters during the hardest time of our life. The hospitality and sympathy shown to us while we put our dad to rest has been indescribable. Thank you so much Jeff, we are forever grateful to you and Berardinelli's.

Director Jeff Cruz is a true professional, and he also is a compassionate individual. Our entire family is grateful for his exceptional support for us during the recent passing of my father. Mr. Cruz provided excellent updates about the process, and we felt that he genuinely cared about assisting us during this difficult time. Jeff also went the extra mile to help plan military honors for my father. Thank you again, Jeff!
Frequently Asked Questions About Berardinelli Family Funeral Service
If I am cremated, can I be buried with my spouse even if he or she was in a casket?
Yes — Depending upon the cemetery's policy, you may be able to save a grave space by having the cremains buried on top of the casketed remains of your spouse, or utilize the space provided next to him/her. Many cemeteries allow for multiple cremated remains to be interred in a single grave space.
What do I need to know about income tax when I lose a spouse?
Uncertainty about income tax issues can add to the stress experienced from the death of a spouse. You should meet with your family attorney and/or tax advisor as soon as possible to review your particular tax and estate circumstances. Bring a detailed list of your questions to the meeting. If you do not have an attorney or tax advisor, call the IRS toll-free at 800-829-1040 for answers to specific tax questions.
Is there financial help if I need it?
There are a number of options available, including:
Determine if the deceased person qualifies for any entitlements. Check with the Social Security Administration, the Department of Veterans Affairs, and with your State Fund. Many people are entitled to get financial assistance with their funeral costs from these agencies if they qualify.
Review all insurance policies the deceased person has, including life insurance. Some life insurance policies have coverage clauses for funeral related costs.
Find local charities providing financial help for funeral expenses. Search for non profit organizations and for churches in your area.
Talk to your funeral director about cremation options - these can be much less expensive depending on your choices.
Do we need to have an obituary notice and what is included in one?
It is highly recommended to have an obituary notice that is either posted in a local newspaper or online. An obituary lets the public know that a death has occurred and provides them with information about the service. Obituaries generally include the deceased’s full name, age, city, and date of birth, as well as the city they were living in when they died. It also includes the name of the deceased’s spouse, along with the names of anyone else significant in their lives, such as parents, children, or grandchildren. Space may be limited in a newspaper obituary, but you might also wish to include a short sentiment on the life and legacy of the deceased. An online obituary or memorial website offers you the chance to add a lot more about the deceased.
What is embalming and what purpose does it serve?
Embalming sanitizes and preserves the body. It also slows down the decomposition process and enhances the appearance of a body impacted by a traumatic death or illness. Embalming gives time to the family of the deceased to arrange a service and allows for the possibility of an open-casket viewing.
Can cremated remains be buried with a spouse who was casketed?
Yes, depending on the cemetery's policy, cremains can often be buried on top of casketed remains or next to the spouse. Multiple cremated remains can usually be interred in a single grave space.
What should I know about income tax after losing a spouse?
You should consult with a family attorney or tax advisor promptly to review your tax and estate situation and bring a detailed list of questions. The IRS also offers support at 800-829-1040 for specific tax questions.
Are there financial assistance options for funeral expenses?
Yes, options include checking entitlements via Social Security, Veterans Affairs, state funds, reviewing life insurance policies, seeking local charities and churches, and discussing affordable cremation options with the funeral director.
Is placing an obituary necessary and what information does it include?
While not legally required, it's highly recommended to post an obituary in a local newspaper or online. It typically includes the deceased's full name, age, birth and death details, family members, and a sentiment about their life and legacy.
What is embalming and why is it done?
Embalming sanitizes and preserves the body, slows decomposition, and improves appearance, especially after traumatic death or illness. It allows more time to arrange services and for open-casket viewings.
