Steven Baxter at Gannon Funeral Home is a thoughtful and compassionate individual. He was there for us for both my parents. My father passed away in April 2020 in the height of the pandemic. Steven was to only one to help us. And now Steven again was there to help us with my mother. Without a doubt, They took care of my parents with respect and great care. Thank you Steven!
My name is Ashley and I have used this funeral home once before and I’m in the industry so I know they really treat your family as they are working with their own loved one since I can be picky so they are one of the few I trust. I had a family member and one friend be used by them, and They were very kind, considerate, professional, and I will be using them again for future family issues. I highly suggest Gannon Funeral Home. 💓💓
My brother passed away at the Veteran hospital during the peak of the Covid19 pandemic. Besides dealing with the devastation of suddenly losing a love one, we were also struggling with the nightmarish impact of trying to get my brother cremated during a week that all Funeral Homes in NYC were so overwhelmed. My family is so grateful that Steve at the Gannon Funeral home decided to provide cremation services for my brother. Steve was very caring and professional. I was kept informed through the entire process. During that hectic time, Steve was able to adhere to the timeline he gave me and provide clear payment documentation. My family members were so impressed with the excellent service at Gannon Funeral Home that we will continue to do business with them.

The Gannon Funeral Home was recommended to me by a family member when my husband passed away. I found them to be extremely knowledgeable and accommodating . Steve arranged the transportation and cremation, obtained the death certificates and helped me plan a personalized memorial service with a terrific minister, Rev. David Lothrup. Everything went smoothly.
On the following day, Steve personally helped me with the flowers that were received; giving some away to a church across the street and with “downsizing” another arrangement for me to bring home.
They also let me keep my husband’s ashes on their premises while I worked out the logistics for their final resting place.
All in all, they made doing the things that needed to be done much easier during a difficult time and I highly recommend them.
I feel fortunate that it was the extremely knowledgeable, compassionate, solicitous funeral directors of GANNON FUNERAL HOME that handled my elderly mother's arrangements this summer. My initial contact with Gannon was a phone call - - at which time I spoke to STEVE - - to inform the staff that I had designated Gannon as the funeral home for my gravely ill mother, who was then at the in-home hospice stage. Gannon's caring was immediately apparent; I felt completed assured that, when my mother's time came, all would be handled with the utmost efficiency and understanding. Then, upon meeting Steve in person, my positive first impression was immediately confirmed. I let him know that the last three years of almost 24/7 live-in caregiving my infirmed mother had left me depleted: emotionally, physically, and pretty much financially as well. There would be only direct cremation, followed by interment of Mom's ashes at the Veteran's Cemetery, next to my long-deceased beloved father. Steve provided me with as much unrushed time and invaluable guidance as if I were arranging the costliest, grandest of funerals. On the morning of the interment it was Funeral Director TOM ("Tommy") who was on reception duty. Like Steve, Tommy is lovely - - kind, supportive and so helpful to me and my small family on that sad, stressful day. (Ditto for the wonderful service provided to us by our limo driver-cum-cemetery ceremony escort Teddy.) I would like to also add that Gannon's rates are extremely reasonable. Plus they deal with the financial arrangements with the bereaved client in a way that is both classy and respectful, so refreshingly NOT business-as-usual. I feel very reassured and comforted in the knowledge that my mother was shepherded on her final passage by the caring professionals at Gannon Funeral Home.
