Sparrow | A Contemporary Funeral Home
- Linda Acevedo 2 years ago
Sparrow is a heart warming place for your love ones to have their final resting spot until buried or cremated. I lost my son on 10/31/22 at the age of 23 years old. They made him look like he was just sleeping. They took very good care of him from the day they pick him up from the morgue to his day of cremation. They treated him very special and I’m very grateful for that since he was very special to me and his family. They are an amazing group. Now I consider them as part of my family.

Our family was stricken with a sudden passing of our son in law and we found Sparrow on the internet. Alexander from the first contact was calming, responsive, thoughtful and extremely mindful of our needs emotionally and financially. His professionalism and support during an unbearably difficult situation was amazing. The space is bright, clean, spacious and smells wonderful. The time spent to plan the service and the expeditious handling of the service and cemetery schedule, customized to our diverse family was handled with great care. We felt truly heard and taken care of. Sparrow was able to treat all of us involved in the planning who were shocked and grief stricken with nothing but a gentle and comforting hand. It was a unique and pleasant way to celebrate a life gone too soon , I would highly recommend this funeral home, it was very different and the attention to detail ,visual and sensory experience was special. Thank you for you to their team

Our experience with Sparrow Funeral Home was overwhelmingly positive – a bright spot amidst sadness and grief. Our daughter was stillborn in July and we were overwhelmed trying to figure out what to do and who to contact. We reached out to Sparrow for cremation arrangements and we were put in touch with Russell. We immediately felt at ease with our choice. Russell treated us with sincerity and compassion and gently helped us through the process. We had not anticipated needing funeral arrangements for our infant and his kindness and professionalism really made a difference in an incredibly traumatic and painful experience.
Russell helped us through all of the decisions and choices that had to be made and helped accommodate a viewing with very little notice. He created a beautiful space for our family to meet and say goodbye to our daughter. Saying goodbye to our baby was the hardest thing I’ve ever done, but Russell & Sparrow Funeral Home helped create a sacred and healing experience. I will forever be grateful for the kindness and compassion we received there.

We were devastated when we delivered our daughter stillborn last month. We wanted to find a way to mark our almost 9 months with her. Neither of us had any idea how to find a funeral home, what to do in the case of a stillbirth, and how to incorporate our traditions I something that felt so raw and traumatic. We had very little emotional bandwidth.
We feel so fortunate and blessed to have been connected to Russell at Sparrow. I cannot tell you how warm, kind and empathetic he was to our situation. He helped us navigate through what will probably be the darkest days of our lives, provided our options to us with an incredible amount of kindness, and allowed us to celebrate her too short time here in a beautiful peaceful way. I cannot imagine having gone through this with an old, crusty, careless funeral home.
For those of us of a younger generation grieving the death of a loved one, Sparrow felt like a peaceful space to mark or celebrate the end of a life. We feel so grateful and blessed to have come across them. I write this review in hopes that if you find yourself grieving the death of a loved one, you will reach out to Sparrow and find comfort in a more peaceful way.

Sparrow’s treatment of my Mother’s Celebration of Life was beautiful, and perfectly executed. It’s a team of listeners – highly adaptable and deeply committed to doing the things that highlight the uniqueness of your loved one and their legacy. Sparrow helped us deliver a service that was bespoke and intimate in a way that seemed impossible when consulting with other more conventional funerals homes. There wasn’t the feeling of a plug and play service that is very common in the industry. Down to the finest detail they made sure to create an experience as unique as the person we were saying goodbye too. You’re in good hands here.
