Our experience with Alex, as our representative went extremely smooth under the circumstances. She was knowledgeable, confident, professional, answered all of our questions, and took care of all of our concerns. Would definitely recommend using Dooley Colonial Funeral Home in Westfield N. J. .

The passing of my father was emotionally overwhelming and when my son and I met with Ryan to arrange my father’s funeral, he was extremely kind, understanding, and helpful. Choices had to be made and Ryan gently but thoroughly explained what our options were. Ryan and Thomas made this highly emotional experience flawless. From arrangements with the church and the cemetery, from holy cards to the military ceremony, from financial arrangements to closing statements, I would highly recommend the caring, professionalism of Dooley Colonial Funeral Home.

At the time of incredible difficulty, there are not strong enough words I can use to express how impressive and comforting the people at Dooleys were especially Ryan Tombs. If you are in the unfortunate situation of putting to rest a love one, there’s no higher recommendation I can give other than to use Dooleys .

I have been to multiple services at Dooley Colonial Home and they have all been extremely well run. The staff was professional and kept the place spotless. My friend recently had to lay her niece to rest and the funeral director who ran the viewing, Ryan Tombs, was very personable in what is normally a super dry business (understandably so). I would not think twice to use them if I ever need them.

My Family & I would like to say a Big Thank You to Laura & the Staff at the Dooley Colonial Funeral Home. Your kindness and total attention to detail was so appreciated by my 3 Siblings & I over this past weeked. Laura took care of everything perfectly and even had a spare Titleist Golf Ball we could have out of her own golf bag, when we all realized that we had brought a Calloway ball and our Dad, Paul Aloia, would never have golfed with that brand! Talk about "Customer Service"! Everything went Beautifully. The renovations they have done have really made the area so comfortable and enhance the feeling of being in your own home and your own kitchen, providing sandwiches & soft drinks to family and friends. Thank you from the Bottom of our Hearts for your special care of our Dad. We feel you now have a forever friend in the four of us!

From the moment I pick up the phone to make arrangements to after the services, everything flowed seamlessly. Ryan Tombs handled the whole process and walked me thru every step not only with funeral arrangements but also with other choices I needed to make not attached to his job. The kindness and compassion he extended eased so much of the stress in planning funeral services. I could not be happier with the exceptional service he provided.

Handling final arrangements is tremendously overwhelming while dealing with the grief of losing a loved one. However, Ryan helped us through every single step with compassion, patience and the utmost professionalism. He went above and beyond with everything and there aren’t enough words to express how grateful we are for such wonderful service. I called Dooley Colonial Funeral Home the day my father passed away and without hesitation Ryan drove almost four hours to retrieve him. Ryan explained everything in detail and had the most calming presence. He was always available to answer any question we had. Everything was flawless, from the video picture collage, the flag presentation and taps, to the appearance of my father. The entire experience with Dooley Colonial Funeral Home and Ryan was beyond anything we could have imagined and there aren’t enough stars on this review to indicate exactly how much I recommend them.

Loosing a loved one will always bring pain. Finding comfort, understanding and empathy for your lost is just crucial in such a difficult moment. Ryan and Dooley's did just that! Ryan helped me to celebrate my husband's life, bringing together all the pieces and people to do so in a record time, while making all the effort to fulfill our family wishes. Thank you so very much! The welcoming rooms at Dooley Colonial Funeral Home, in Westfield, provided our family and friends the perfect and comfortable space to share good memories and say our goodbye to my beloved husband. Thank you to all at Dooley for being present each step of the ceremony, and for caring. Bless you!

Dooley Colonial Funeral Home helped my family so much in a difficult time; they helped us with the process of transferring ashes from another state's funeral home, and set up a simple but heartfelt memorial service with ease. They were readily available and answered all of our questions despite our minimal use of services - greatly appreciated their willingness to help.

Our family has been in Westfield for almost 120 years. Dooley's has always been a place of comfort and professionalism each time a family member died. I remember my Dad and Grandfather always spoke so very highly of Charlie Dooley. Perhaps that "Charlie" was second or third generation.Recently my cousin and I needed some death certificates for our long departed Grandfather. It is a frustrating process to get anything from the state. Ryan Tombs of Dooley's went out of his way to assist us in procuring the necessary death certificates. He did not have to help us but cheerfully did so. This is a small example of why our family of 6 generations in Westfield has always turned to Dooley's. Thank you Ryan!
