The entire celebration was beautiful and heartfelt-exactly what we hoped for. I received so many compliments on the venue and how thoughtfully everything came together.

Sherri and her team did a fabulous job with our mom’s celebration of life. The food was delicious and presented beautifully. The decorations and music were perfect in helping us all to celebrate our mom’s amazing life. There was even a bar set up with a bartender making her favorite drink. I would highly recommend Celebration of Life Funeral Planning.

Sherry and her team did a beautiful job on my dad’s celebration of life. Losing him at a younger age than we ever expected, we wanted to honor him in a way that was more fitting to his personality. Sherry jumped on the phone with us, listened to us talk about him and what was important to him, and had a perfect idea to honor him. We didn’t have to do or think about much. She handled everything and did so with utmost care, respect, and kindness. She jumped on calls and responded to us right away. Anything we wanted, she made happen. On the day, we were able to just show up and actually grieve and talk to people, rather than having to host. She did that part. I hope I never need to use her services again, but if I ever have to, she will always be my go-to. Thank you, Sherry!

My hospice agency is Elevate Hospice & Palliative Care and the families of our patients have such wonderful things to say about Sherry Kaye and how she handles the end of life planning and events. Sherry is a pleasure to work with! 5 Stars!

Sherry is the only person you need to call when looking for a celebration of life, funeral, or memorial. She is compassionate, kind, resourceful, and knowledgeable. Our family lost my grandfather and needed to plan a celebration of life for a man that was larger than life, and Sherry helped make that happen. She will handle anything gracefully and is a comforting presence during the planning and the event. She does this because she loves doing it and wants the family to walk away with the best experience possible for the tragic situation. The staff she hires for the event are excellent and will leave the guests mentioning them years later. Everyone will remember my grandpa’s celebration of life as something that spoke to how he lived life, and we couldn’t have done it without Sherry.

Sherry and her team are absolutely amazing. Her compassion and attention to detail are truly second to none. She has the ability to take a heartbreaking situation and help make it into a beautiful representation of your loved one’s life. I would recommend Sherry for anything – a celebration of life, wedding, an event- it takes a special person to represent whatever major life event, or special occasion; really, “you” or “your family” or “your loved ones”.

I cannot say enough about the care Sherry provided our family with her Celebration of Life services when my grandmother passed. She was there to support and assist us throughout the entire process. During a very challenging time for the family we knew we could count on Sherry to make sure every detail was handled seamlessly with not only discretion and professionalism, but also with tremendous compassion and warmth. Sherry took care of things that we simply wouldn’t have known to even ask about and that was so important and appreciated. She was so easy to talk to and plan with and really made it possible to truly celebrate Grandma’s life. This was a much more personable and customized experience than any other we have had in the past when working with the large mortuaries directly. Sherry, I cannot thank you enough for being there for our family.

I can not thank Sherry from Celebration of Life Funeral Planning for all that she did to help me get my brother home to me. She went above and beyond and out of her way she handled everything. She has a heart of gold super kind and loving. She always answered my calls and text. She made it all so much easier she really cares about your loved one.

Sherry from Celebration of Life is the first and only call you need to make after or even before a loved one passes. She takes care of everything from that point on. Unfortunately for our family we’ve used the services from Sherry and Celebration of Life 3 times in the last 5 years. However, fortunately for us, we had Sherry by our sides during a difficult time. She provides an amazing service and is extremely affordable. I can’t imagine trying to take care of end of life details without Celebration of Life. Sherry’s compassion and efficiency makes her a true angel.

I found Sherry just browsing the internet. My husband had just passed away and I wasn’t too versed on having a Celebration of Life. Sherry gave me a lot of ideas, she was there for everything. I wouldn’t have been able to handle it by myself. She was there for the service at the cemetery and Church. My experience was wonderful. I wanted the best for my husband and Sherry gave me that. She made a horrible situation into a celebration for him. I was able to attend the services without any distractions of making sure everything was going okay. I would highly recommend her if you have to plan an event such as this.

I just worked with Sherry after we unexpectedly lost my daughter who was 34 years old. To say we were and still are devastated would be an understatement. It was a pleasure dealing with Sherry. Everything Sherry did went to plan with grace and dignity. We all get caught up with the big name places that we think we have to deal with. Sherry has all the tools and capabilities to handle every task confidently and quickly. Losing a loved one is very personal, and I have never met a woman that put compassion over the cost. She made sure every detail was met. It’s a very difficult time. It’s a pleasure to meet someone who loves their career and has the passion to excel. I would highly recommend Sherry to anyone. It was a pleasure to work with her during a very trying time.
Andrea Pedro

Sherry was there for myself and my family during a most difficult time. Losing my brother was devastating for us. Sherry treated his body with dignity and respect and guided us through the entire funeral planning process. She is a caring and compassionate person who embodies what it means to celebrate life. Words cannot express my gratitude towards her.
