A special note of thanks to Terry, Sue, and the entire staff of the Byron Keenan Funeral Home for the thoughtful and complete services they provided for my mother-in-law's services on December 3, 2022. Every detail was attended to with care and their recommendations with right on. Our family highly recommends this funeral service business.

We have used Byron's Funeral home twice in the last 6 years. The first time was planned through my Dad's pre-planning. My dad passed at 2:25 am on a Friday morning. His request was to be buried as quickly as possible. I am thankful to say Terry was able to line up a military funeral for the next day at 11:00. It meant the world to us to hear Taps played at the cemetery. Unfortunately earlier this year my brother died unexpectedly. I called Byron's and they handled all of the arrangements. We had peace knowing everything was being taken care of. I strongly recommend them.

When my parents both passed away, Byron Keenan helped us put together a tribulation that was excellent. They went well beyond what we ever expected. The time, effort, and the focus on the details made my parents passing so memorable to our family. Not to mention the genuine concern and support they showed us during a very difficult time.

My father recently passed away 11/2/22. I worked with Terry Mullins. He was excellent, he made a sad situation very easy to deal with. Before my dad passed, Terry came to his house to meet with him and my stepmom. He helped them with both of their burial decisions. He made it so easy for them to decide what they wanted for their burial needs. Thank you again Terry for everything.
The entire staff at Bryons is without question some of nicest people have ever met. They are all kind and caring to your needs and they go out of there way, to make sure everything is perfect. On behalf of my family and myself I would like to Thank you all for making my father passing that much easier to deal with.

Beautiful building and friendly staff
My family met with sue for our loved ones funeral arrangements and Sue was incredibly helpful and personable! Highly recommend Byron Keenan!

I recently attended services at Byron Keenan funeral Home for my grandmother and I’ve attended plenty of wakes and funerals and the passion the staff has for their job was unmatched. From the cleanliness of the building to going above and beyond to make us feel like family in a difficult time in our lives meant everything to my family. Special thanks to Terry who led us through the arrangement process with ease and to Aidan for welcoming us and even playing a few pieces of music during the service that were very near and dear to my grandmothers heart. Highly recommend Byron Keenan to anyone needing funeral services!

Our family appreciates the kindness and compassion that Terry showed our family during this difficult time. Not only his professionalism, but him personally going above and beyond to take care of our situation made all the difference.

We recently had my mother’s services at Byron Keenan. I cannot say enough how wonderful the staff was to our family. From the moment we first called until we left the cemetery, we felt like they really cared for us. This funeral home was recommended to us by a family friend and I will certainly recommend their services to anyone who may be in need of final arrangements. Thank you Sue and the Byron Keenan staff.

I appreciate, respect, and admire Sue for the dedicated and hard work she puts in. Grief and losing someone you love unexpectedly is a very difficult experience. As soon as I walked through the doors I knew it was the right place; there were cardinals, plants, and the space felt warm and welcoming despite the circumstances. I know my Grandma was happy being there and she was cared for exceptionally. Sue gave us the time we needed and even shared some of her own story with us which my mom, sister, and I genuinely and truly appreciated. As Sue was the first female funeral director in the state of Massachusetts, my intersectional feminist was beaming! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making this experience much better than I ever could’ve imagined or thought it would go. You made my family and I feel like friends, and gave this hardship we were all going through some joy, happiness, and positivity. This was the most difficult time in my life and Sue truly made it significantly better. Your perseverance, hard-work, and dedication to others will not go unnoticed!

Losing a loved one is such a difficult thing. When my husband died I was lost and didn’t even know where to begin. Contacting Sue and Terry at Byron Keenan Funeral Home was the best thing I ever did. They helped me through this whole devastating process and made it so much easier to handle. They walked me through each step and when it came time for the wake and the services everything went flawlessly. The level of professionalism and care the staff took was above and beyond. I highly recommend Byron Keenan Funeral home for all your funeral needs.

To the Family of Cousin Marie Brown,

Sue,
From our first meeting in January 2018, when you guided my daughter and I through the process of laying my mom, Christa, to rest, till the final time we met, you have been amazing! With such a sudden passing, you were so patient and understanding of our grief and gave us the time we needed to deal with the whole process. The memorial service was beautiful and handled in the most respectful of ways. Giving my family the space and time to say our final goodbyes to my mom. I will forever be grateful and thankful for your un ending compassion. You are an amazing person and I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers always💖

Dear Ashley,

Thank you so much for your kindness & help in planning Clothilde's sevices. Obviously it was a stressful time for us, but you made it much easier for both of us. We so appreciate your guidance and suggestions, as it was all new to us!

Thank you again!

Everyone at Byron Keenan Funeral Home has been supportive through this tough time. They answer questions that I never thought I'd ask. And they have never made me feel uncomfortable with the situation. They made the ugliest time seem so beautiful I couldn't have asked for more.One of their employees Robin, I can't thank her enough for being a listening ear when I feel like I'm losing my mind with everything that needs to happen. She always seem to find a way to calm me down and for me to know what the next step is. Thank you.

The staff at Byron Keenan were so very helpful during a time when patience, understanding and lots of information was needed. From the visit we pre-planned mother's funeral to the very end of the internment. So often loved ones that have an open casket look very different than when they passed. I think passing to her new life was good for her because mom looked better than the previous week. Of course, I take into consideration that Mom had a very peaceful, calm and serene passing. I am sure this contributed to her wonderful appearance. However, our family found great comfort in her looking so much like herself. We had out of town relatives that were not able to arrive in time for the viewing. I asked if I could bring them in to the funeral home the next day after their arrival. Byron and Keenan were very thoughtful and accommodating. Dick was the absolute nicest man. He was very kind. I will forever be grateful for his attentiveness. As Dick puts it....be a stanger but if you need them, I can't think of any place that would be more thoughtful, understanding and helpful than this funeral home and crematorium. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for treating my mother and our family with the utmost respect.

Our family within the last year has used Byron Keenan Funeral Home twice now and each time our family was treated with such compassion and kindness that we will be forever in debt to Sue & Terry. From the writing of the obituary to the details of the day-they all made those tough decisions a lot easier to have to make. They are so professional but also relatable, it felt like we were with family.
