Nick at Riverview was so beyond helpful and kind! Our cat passed away and it's been so hard for my husband and I and we we really just wanted a nice urn for his ashes. We were apprehensive about contacting a funeral home in our search, we just didn't know how it would good or what people would say. But Nick was so kind and sweet about the whole thing and so accommodating. He helped us pick something nice and affordable for us, and we had home in just a week! Thank you again!
Nick and the staff at Riverview Funeral Home were very compassionate and empathetic in working with the family to assure all of our needs were met. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
This is the second time we have used your service for my father and Brother and on both occasions Nick has gone above and beyond want was expected. He made sure every detail was to the families expectations and beyond. I would highly recommend Nick and Riverview to any one during this extremely difficult time. Nick is truely a man who cares deeply about your families needs. Thank you the Mantello Family

I had never planned a funeral before, so I knew nothing about what to do. I googled funeral homes in Troy and read a couple of reviews. Riverview stood out to me because many people said they couldn't say enough about the compassionate service they received, especially from Nick. I called from my mother's room in hospice, and the same Nick I'd been reading about answered the phone. He immediately put me at ease and made an appointment for my husband and I to meet him the next day. He was so kind and patient and compassionate as he explained everything and listened to what we wanted. The timing of the funeral on Saturday morning was tight due to the priest's availability and the closing time of Oakwood Cemetery Crematorium, but Nick organized things with the priest and Oakwood Cemetery, who agreed to stay open later, just for us, so we wouldn't feel rushed. We chose to have a closed, private funeral at the Riverview Funeral Home. The peaceful atmosphere and pretty decor is all so cozy and comforting, I felt like I was in my great-grandma's parlor. We had an open casket because my mother looked so peaceful and natural, and Nick added a single stemmed rose to her clasped hands and a rosary because he knew she was Catholic. (They have an awesome selection of urns too, and I found one my mother would have loved, with purple irises). Any little details we wanted to add, such as displaying the British Union Jack flag, Nick accommodated for us. He is truly a dedicated professional, who loves what he does, and it shows. I wouldn't think of going anywhere else when the next time comes to plan a funeral for a loved one.
On behalf of our family, we would like to thank Nick and the rest of the staff at Riverview on how well put together the service was for our loved one. I’ve been to many funerals and have always thought they never look like who the person truly was and that was not the case here! He just looked so peaceful and looked like he was sleeping comfortably, this meant so much to us and we can’t thank Nick enough for everything from the beginning to the end and making sure the whole process was as smooth as possible.
Thank you
