Amanda and LeeAnn were attentive, compassionate, guiding, patient, sympathetic and understanding of our families’ needs after the unexpected passing of our loving wife, mother and grandmother.

We recently lost my son due to stillbirth. Amanda was so very kind and informed us that Gendron does not charge for cremation or funeral costs of infants. This was so unexpected and such a blessing for us. All funeral homes should adopt this philosophy.

Mike Gendron, his family, and team members are by far the kindest and most professional people I have ever met. They were patient and understanding, taking the time to explain everything that would happen and answer all of my questions. They made the hardest day of my life as easy and calming as humanly possible. I could never have done it without them. I recommend them hands down with more than five stars if Google would let me.

My family owes the entire staff at Gendron so much! We lost my mother during the first phase of the pandemic and they not only helped us navigate through such a confusing period with new social distances, but also gave my family much needed closure that we probably wouldn't have had any where else.not only were they professional and beyond prompt, they were caring and devoted, almost like extended family. We are forever grateful for their support and care that they showed to our family. Gendron is now apart of our family💕

Diabrowak September 20, 2023

Gendron Funeral Home and the entire staff which is all family because it is a family owned funeral home are nothing but professional, caring and attentive to all needs. I am a funeral director of over 20 years in MA & RI. My father passed away in September of 2015 and I called Gendron Funeral Home. From the start, I was treated better then expected. Over the years, many funeral homes esp in FL have sold out to large corporations. You may think the funeral home is sill owned and operated by the family name, but trust me you are just a number. Again being a funeral director of over 20 years, when my dad passed, I knew what to look for in a funeral home and in the staff. Gendron FH was outstanding in every way. I have read some of the google reviews, so let me say that some things are out of the funeral directors control. In services requiring cremation, we as funeral directors must deal with many diffrent departments that require special permits and forms, and sometimes it can be a struggle to have things done by other people. Let me close with, if I ever move to FL, the first place I would go to look for employment is Gendron FH, because as a funeral director I believe in doing all I can for a family in need, and make it as easy as possible for them and meet all of their needs, AS GENDRON FUNERAL HOME DID FOR MY FAMILY., That should say it all.

Gendron was there for me in a time of need. I recently lost my baby girl at 20 weeks. I contacted Gendron and they helped me right away. They were very professional and caring. Gendron does not charge a cremation fee for fetal demise which was so helpful with all of the other costs from medical. I truly appreciate that. These people really care about others and what they are going through. I will definitely use them again and recommend them to all in their times of need.

We lost our newborn daughter at Sarasota Memorial & one of the hardest things we ever had to do during this process of grieving was cremate her; However, thanks to Gendron Funeral Home we were able to make our decision with a clear conscious. We got her back as quickly as the legality of it all would allow. Paul, Mike & Amanda did a wonderful job taking care of our daughter. We bought a gorgeous Urn for her & when we picked her up her urn was placed in a velvet pouch that Mike handled ever so carefully. We cannot thank these people enough for what they did for us, our family and our daughter.

Mike was very kind and respectful during the process of carrying out our mom's final wishes. I know it can't be an easy job but he helped make it as painless as possible for my brother and me.

I appreciate the services and kindness we received from Gendron and would reccomend this funeral home to anyone having to say good bye to a loved one.

Joyce Hales July 30, 2019

I am a funeral director in Massachusetts and Rhode Island and wanted to take this opportunity to thank Paul, Michael and the staff of the Gendron Funeral Home for all the years of professional service. It is very common for a family to lose a loved on while out of state and their wishes are to have funeral services and burial in their home state. This is where Gendron has served us professionally. Every time we call upon them when we have a family who has experienced a loss in Florida, they treat us as we are an extension of their staff and work seamlessly with us to serve the family and send the family’s loved one home. Shipping service is a particular service that all funeral homes provide and Gendron excels at providing the best experience in not only sensitive customer service but the preparation aspect, which isn’t true for every funeral home in Florida or any region for that matter. Thank you for all that you do for us. Richard J. Snyder

Richard Snyder November 18, 2019

The Gendron Funeral Home was like extended family with the passing of our mother. Amanda, Paul and Mike Gendron are wonderful people. Alzheimer’s left mom looking almost unrecognizable over time, but the Gendron's restored her appearance for the special family viewing. This was extremely comforting to us. I can’t say enough good things about the Gendron family. Highest of recommendations and thank you Gendron family for your compassion.

Gendron Funeral and Cremation Services was caring from the first call. I sent an email to the website and got a call back in very short order. Amanda was caring and sympathetic. She answered my questions in an honest and straight forward manner that spoke of professionalism. The very next day I finalized arrangements and Mike and Paul in the Sarasota location were helpful, compassionate and direct. Their caring attitude made this difficult decisions possible.

The staff at Gendron prevented a tragic loss from taking on additional grief or frustration. They were genuinely compassionate, organized and competent. Lindsey at the front office went above and beyond in navigating the coroners office and family doctor, to have them meet their responsibilities when they were unresponsive. The Communication with Gendron was clear and frequent. Not in a hurry to go back, but highly recommend and wont go anywhere else for this service. Dave H

David Hazelton October 22, 2022

Having had experience with them in the past. All it took was a phone call and I didn't have to worry about anything else. Everything was taken care of for us, with good communication. To let us know where in the process they were. Even when I picked up my wife's remains, they were beyond professional. Asking if I needed help carrying the box out. Even called me a little while later to make sure I got to where I was going. Unfortunately, it was a pleasure to work with them again, and will choose them again if needed.

I used Gendron Funeral home for my parents as they had pre-planned arrangements. Mom passed recently to go be with my dad who left us over a year ago. My experience with Gendron was phenomenal. Amanda, Nicole and Michael were helpful, professional and courteous. We used Gendron chapel for the visitation and service and Pastor Michael gave a beautiful service intermingly facets of my mom's life. Family and friends told me how impressed and pleased they were with the service and mom's presentation.

Extremely sympathetic and courteous. Wish I had found them sooner. Believe it or not, some funeral homes will try and take advantage of your emotional state to "up sell" you on things you don't need.

When I started calling around to find a funeral home in Florida from Ohio I never thought I would find one I was comfortable with without having to fly down. Then one phone call changed all that! The owner answered and was so wonderful!! He was so compassionate and understanding!! He told me his daughter would be calling me and within the hour Amanda called!! She was wonderful!! She was on top of everything and when thrown a couple curve balls she knocked it out of the park!! Not only did she do everything I needed she went out of her way to extra!! She made our life so much easier. This was one thing we could sit back and not stress at all about in this sad time of our lives! Thank you so much Amanda you are Amazing!!

Patarica Carpenito September 09, 2022

I had the absolute BEST experience at Gendron. My husband passed & they were so very kind, SINCERE, professional and CARING. He passed at Tidewell Hospice in the very early morning of Sept. 8, 2022. Hospice called Gendron and in less than 90 minutes they arrived to take him in a most professional way! I met with Amanda later that same day to make all of our arrangements. She knew exactly what needed to be done, she also made the notification to Social Security and of course made all the arrangements that our family wanted. My husband wanted to be cremated and his remains brought back to MA for a service. Amanda told me this process takes 7 to 10 days. It was barely 7 days when his remains were ready along with all of the death certificates that I wanted, an urn I purchased and 100 beautiful prayer cards that Lee Ann made, the beautiful box & bag to take on the plane in my suitcase and purple velvet bags I asked to have some of his ashes in to sprinkle in all of his favorite places. I was also provided a letter for TSA to fly on the plane with his remains & I had no problems with them. They also placed his obituary on their website. I was recommended to "Gendron Funeral & Cremation Services, Inc." by a local funeral home, Conley's Funeral & Cremation Services, which has been in this business for 112 years, in my hometown of Brockton, MA when making arrangements for a family member two years ago. The Director said they were kind of a "sister company" in that they worked with them for a lot of snowbirds or residents of FL since Gendron is originally from up North. I saved the info knowing I may need a reliable, trustworthy funeral service in the future. Conley's couldn't say enough great things about them and how you have to be especially cautious with these establishments in the State of FL. I urge anyone that reads this to use this wonderful place in your time of need, it was pure smooth sailing at a very sad, horrible time in my life. They made the whole process easy & I knew that my loved one was in the absolute BEST of hands. I HIGHLY recommend them. Thank you Amanda & Lee Ann from the bottom of my heart!!

This funeral home provided a pleasant experience. I give it 5 stars because the conductor/speaker was a fantastic guy. Mike Leahy was hilarious, respectful, very thoughtful, and made you feel very comfortable getting to know the deceased in order to have a meaningful service for your loved one on less than a week's notice. As far as the transactional aspect of it went, it went smoothly, and I was given all the information I needed plainly enough, and it was overall a pleasant experience. that's really the best word to describe it all. The actual memorial service for my father was very sentimental, and I'll have great memories from it for years to come. Thank you, sincerely.

I can only thank the Gendron Funeral & Cremation at Lehigh Acres, they took great care of my beloved Mother in such a difficult time. During that period of time I couldn't think straight on the things that I needed to do after my Mother's passing and they explain how everything works, the things that I needed to do, they even had a list with "to do" things. From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much! The facility is very clean, pretty and in general everything is well organized. I don't wish losing your Mother upon anyone, but when the time comes, I highly recommend them.

My 27 y.o. son died unexpectedly & I was beside myself with grief. Mike Gendron, who I did not know, was extremely kind & sympathetic while stll being totally professional. There was no hard pressure sell but he left no detail to chance. I also had several in-person, on-the-phone, & email dealings with Amy from the office staff & she always responded immediately, efficiently, & empatetically. Their prices were very fair & I feel that Mike actually gave me more than I had paid for by preparing my son spotlesslesly for my private viewing even though he was to be cremated. Without hesitation I highly recommend Gendron Cremation & Funeral Services. Sincere thanks for taking such good care of my son!!!! I am forever grateful.

Mike and his staff took care of my mom as if she was their own, and guided, comforted and patiently helped us in making the most difficult decisions easier to bear. Thank you ever so much for everything as we are truly grateful!

Gendron Funeral Home did an exceptional job when I lost my brother. Mike was very caring and compassionate, and was like an extended family to my daughter and me. He took care of everything and provided a beautiful memorial service. Mike even provided a Skype service for family members that couldn’t be present. I will never forget the wonderful care and compassion from Gendron Funeral Home. They went above and beyond in everything I could have expected!

My mother passed away on January 8, 2021 from complications associated with the COVID-19 virus. She lived in Ft. Myers, Florida and I live in Grand Forks, North Dakota. I had been down to Ft. Myers to visit her and was notified literally as I was walking in the door of my home that she had passed. While I knew it was coming, I was still devastated. I did not know where her body was going, as she had made plans with another crematory service in Ft. Myers for her final resting. I called that service and because it was after hours on a Friday, I spoke with someone from their answering service. I left my information and requested a phone call back. I heard nothing. The next day, Saturday, I called the hospital to find out where my mother had been taken. I was told she was taken to the Gendron Funeral Home. I called the number for Gendron and again because it was after hours spoke with their answering service. Within five minutes, Paul Gendron, "the old man," called me, offering condolences and helped walk me through the process. He even said he would honor the contract my mother had paid for with the other service and not charge anything more. On Monday, Mike Gendron called me and went over things. After that, I have been dealing with Ami McKinney, the Funeral Director Assistant, who has been WONDERFUL - answering all of my questions in a timely fashion and aggressively pushing the paperwork through so my mother could be taken care of. I could not have asked for better service and highly recommend them.

I am very pleased with the way Michael O’ Brien & Paul Gendron at Gendron Funeral Home helped me with my mother’s passing. From the initial phone call, Michael put me at ease & worked with me every step of the way. Phone calls were returned promptly. The pickup of my mom’s body at our home was respectful, & timely. At our initial meeting in discussing what Mom had wanted, Micheal Listened carefully, did not rush me, & honored my requests without pressure sales. Paul Gendron, owner, also was there to assist in any way he could. Between the 2 of them, I found peace in completing Mom’s final wishes. My mother’s cremains were available for pickup by the date promised, along with the death certificates ordered. Thank You Michael, Paul, & Gendron Funeral Home, for your Excellent Service, in making this difficult time much easier for myself & my family.

I contacted Gendron before my husband''s passing to let them know I was choosing them to handle his final arrangements. I wasn't going to be able to get to meet with them before he passed at home, but they were there for the pick-up of the body in a short period of time. I met with them the next day, and it was like being taken care of by a loving family. Mike O'Brien, Amanda and Paul were professional and made the process as easy as possible. Everything went very smoothly. I couldn't have asked for better service. And if you need a hug during these difficult times, they are very good at that too!!

Paul and Amanda Gendron are amazing people. They are sincere and compassionate. I have worked with them professionally as a member of Sarasota County Fire Department Honor Guard, and when I had a personal need in the passing of my brother. I cannot say enough about the kind and caring nature of this family. They will go out of their way to assist you and provide you with the direction needed. It is comforting to know that they are there when you need them. THANK YOU GENDRON FAMILY!

I have recently experienced the unfortunate task of needing to work with Funeral and Cremation Services for my dear family member. As I searched several people suggested that I contact Gendron and all three sources were completely independent of each other. I realized that Gendron must have a stellar reputation. I did contact Gendron and the people that I worked with demonstrated perfect examples of why Gendron is, by far, the most exceptional company to work with. It became consistently obvious that Gendron's standard is excellence, excellence is not the exception. There is a quality in Gendron that is genuine and I will forever be grateful for the privilege of the opportunity to have them take care of my brother and our family.

Michael is a very compassionate employee and made the process so much easier because of his attention to detail, his soothing presence, and his willingness to be of service, all the while addressing our concerns and questions. Loved meeting in the conference room to see what was available for the cremains. The deceased's daughter found you on-line, and what a treasure that was for his wife who didn't have to do everything by herself. From the bottom of my very grateful heart, THANK YOU! 👍 Kay Maier, friend of the family

Mr. Gendron, On behalf of my brother and sisters, I want to thank you for "the personal touch", when my Mom came to your funeral home in February after Dad passed. She stated that you were very kind and compassionate to her needs, and handled most, if not all the details yourself, in making certain all preparations were completed to get Dad back home. The EMT was correct in telling Mom that your facility is premier. She was the one who suggested that Mom contact you. We are very thankful that she did. It made all the difference in the world. Thank you, for all the communication with Mom and with the funeral home in Muncie, IN. It was one less thing Mom or the family had to do or worry about. We knew Dad was in good hands. May God Bless You-Always Sincerely, Darlenia
