Doherty Funeral Homes

"In January 1999, we inquired with Doherty's about burial at the Veteran's Cemetery and met with Barry Hughes. It was like a pleasant visit with an old friend, no pressure, just explanations and answers to our many questions. Eleven months later, my husband died unexpectedly. It was so wonderful not to have to make those tearful decisions about the funeral. I have nothing but praise for Doherty and all the people who helped me."

"I am glad I had talked with Barry several years ago, it made the consultation go smoothly. We laughed and we cried as we made decisions and the funeral director did not rush us or pressure us. Thank you,"
Jo Lynn P. (Wilmington, DE)
