Saunders-Dwyer Funeral Home New Bedford

During one of the most difficult times for our family, the staff at the funeral home — especially Will the director, and Tom the coordinator— showed extraordinary compassion, professionalism, and care. Every detail was handled with dignity and kindness, and they went above and beyond to make sure our loved one was honored beautifully.
From the first meeting through the wake and services, we felt supported, guided, and genuinely cared for. The director was patient, attentive, and always available to answer questions or help with anything we needed, no matter how small. Their calm presence helped ease our stress and allowed us to focus on being together as a family.
We are deeply grateful for the respect and heartfelt care shown to us and highly recommend this funeral home to anyone who wants their loved one treated with dignity and compassion.

Bill, Rick, and the entire staff were top notch through a very difficult time. My mom deserved the best. Thank you Saunders' family.

Working with Bill at Saunders & Dwyer Funeral Home helped our family navigate a very challenging time with professionalism, kindness, and compassion. Bill and his team were always available and quick to respond to our questions and guide us through each step of the process. Because of their support, we were able to create a service that allowed us to come together and mourn our loved one surrounded by family and friends.

Bill and all the staff were amazing and so helpful at a hard time like this. They were so helpful with all the arrangements from the funeral to mass to the reservations for a celebration. Thank you again Bill and all and everyone you were wonderful.

Our family has used Saunders-Dwyer funeral home to bury both our parents. They make a difficult time seamless and easy. A year ago Bill helped us pre-plan Moms funeral which made it so easy when the inevitable day came. He was able to accommodate our date needs in a short turn around since we had grandchildren heading back to college who wanted to be there. This meant a lot to us since the grandkids were mom’s greatest joy. We highly recommend Saunders-Dwyer for their professionalism, efficiency and attention to detail.

For well over 40 years, all of our family members and many of our friends have turned to the Saunders-Dwyer Funeral Home in our time of need.

They have been a staple in our community and we are very fortunate to have them. We pray for their continued success for many more decades to come. Thank you to the Saunders Family!!!
