Went for a consultation about pre paid cremation. Maria was the associate I spoke with. She was very kind and explained and answered all questions I had. Very good experience for something that can be a difficult subject.

Shane Lacey at Boza & Roel provided exceptional service during one of the most difficult times for my family. He made the entire process easy and treated us with genuine compassion. Shane was always available, whether by phone, email, or even drop-ins, and he accommodated every personal request without hesitation and with care. He ensured we had meaningful time with my father before and after the visitation, and we never felt rushed. Everything he promised was delivered, and his guidance and experience were evident every step of the way. In a time when true customer service often feels lost, Shane and Boza & Roel stand apart. I wholeheartedly recommend them to family and friends, and they have truly earned my lifetime of trust and business.

I was very fortunate to have been served by Ms Lupe Valdes and other Boza and Roel Funeral Home staff. Ms. Valdes was so empathetic, patient, and caring. My situation was a little complicated but Ms. Valdes was always there for me and my family in Europe and helped us coordinate with different parties to make sure everything go according to plan and in the best possible way for our situation. I would highly recommend Ms. Valdes to all those families who go through difficult times of losing a loved one.

Feedback of Ms. Lupe Valdes services at Boza & Roel Funeral Homes: Ms. Valdes is the consummate professional. Patient, caring, and service oriented, she was a God send to our family in times of need. My situation was somewhat special because I reside in Texas and I was afraid our communication channels would be a distraction and a burden. On the contrary, Ms. Valdes was always there for us and everything went according to plan and as described in the funeral home balance sheet (costs of the funeral). I would highly recommend Ms. Valdes to all those families dealing with the loss of a loved one. Things will be much easier with Ms. Valdes. Good job and well done. Erasmo Piñero (funeral client)

Kayla Crosslin was fabulous to work with and I would recommend her to help you with prearrangements during your time of sorrow. I actually planned everything with her well in advance of my passing. She is so sweet and treated me with such respect and patience. God bless her!! Patricia Costello-Stamaton

I cannot recommend the team at Boaz and Roel enough. During such a horrible time, they walked us through the steps and went above and beyond to ensure my dad had a respectful funeral. Jacob and Lupa were great and we want them to know that they were very much appreciated for all that they did and the support they gave us. Thank you!!!!

I am thankful to the staff at Boza & Roel Funeral Home for helping my mom, siblings and I navigate through this difficult process after losing a loved one. Our funeral director, Kathryn Cosper, took the time to explain the different service packages and worked with us, answering all questions and concerns we had. The day of the service, as promised, Kathryn was present and assisting with any issues that arose and directing the flow of all family members and friends that were in attendance. The service from start to finish ran smooth. We even had a last minute request for a Sheriff's escort to the cemetery, and Kathryn was able to make it happen. My sincere gratitude to Boza & Roel Funeral Home.

The way Dan Miller treated my wife is unacceptable for any type of business, especially one dealing in bereavement. I would recommend elsewhere or request one of the other staff, they do have a beautiful funeral home.

If I could rate Boza and Roel 100 stars, I would! I would like to extend my gratitude to the entire staff! My father was Carlos Diaz, he passed away March 5th. The staff was extremely professional, patient, and compassionate! They really do care about the families. They have done everything in their power to make such a difficult time easier. Thank you so much!

They handled this tough situation so well for us. Never thought i would have to say goodbye to my son so shortly after he was born. All the staff is so dignified and professional but so heart warming at the same time. I would recommend this place to many people! Thank you for all that y'all have done for us!
