Funeral
Director
Recommendation

Star
of
David
Memorial
Chapels
First,
If
you
find
it
too
painful
and
uncomfortable
to
think
and
talk
of
such
things
-
I
apologize
-
But
for
those
that
are
interested
I
invite
you
to
read
on.
As
you
can
imagine,
I
was
very
recently
confronted
with
the
task
I
had
dreaded
and
feared
for
years
-
planning
my
mothers
funeral.
And
while
it
is
overwhelming
sad
to
loose
a
parent
-
it
was
the
inevitable
end
to
a
happy,
well
lived
life,
as
she
lived
to
the
ripe
old
age
of
98+,
living
in
her
own
home
to
the
end,
never
a
burden
to
anyone.
My
mother
wanted
a
modest
reformed
Jewish
burial.
Lucky
for
me,
as
she
already
had
a
fully
paid
plot
at
Pinelawn
-
where
she
would
be
joining
my
Christian
father
whom
died
18
years
prior.
I
want
to
report
my
overwhelming
positive
experience
in
selecting
Star
of
David,
to
help
me
with
executing
my
mothers
final
wishes.
As
here's
why.
My
director
Kevin
Gray
was
beyond
fabulous,
and
made
the
experience
as
comfortable
as
such
an
experience
could
be.
All
pricing
is
clearly
published
in
advance
on
the
website
-
so
I
knew
in
advance
-
exactly
what
decisions
I
would
be
asked
to
make
-
and
how
much
they
would
cost
if
chosen.
My
pricing
included
everything,
including
the
arranging
and
paying
the
one
time
costs
to
Pinelawn
to
open
my
father's
grave
for
this
second
internment.
They
were
also
able
to
arrange
for
a
Rabbi
-
whom
provided
a
dignified,
thoughtful
service
for
a
person
he
did
not
know.
Without
going
into
the
actual
specifics
of
our
choices
-
suffice
to
say
-
an
appropriate
modest
Jewish
burial
cost
us
about
13,000.
It
would
be
perhaps
significantly
more
-
if
you
were
also
faced
with
having
to
purchase
a
plot.
Again,
I
highly
recommend
Star
of
David,
and
one
of
their
directors,
Kevin
Gray.
