Do not waste your time. Mr. Kim comes across as a typical businessman who seems to care only about his own convenience and profit, showing little to no genuine concern for families.
In preparation for my mother-in-law, who is currently in a nursing home, I had visited several American funeral homes in person. Every one of them was extremely polite, personable, and empathetic about her situation. They patiently answered all of my questions and made me feel that my family’s wish to keep the memorial service simple was truly valued and respected. One funeral home even offered to call Bergen County Social Services on the spot to verify how much of the memorial service, cremation, Korean Christian reverend, and funeral home usage would be covered. They clearly explained every cost in detail—literally from A to Z—and the total amount I would owe was only about one-tenth of what Mr. Kim quoted for the same services.
By contrast, Mr. Kim insisted on conducting the consultation only over the phone. Throughout the conversation, there was no sense of empathy or professionalism. His explanations were vague, confusing, and entirely focused on profit rather than helping the family minimize expenses. He even mentioned that a memorial service could only be held for a maximum of two hours in the morning—as if everything were scheduled around revenue instead of respect for the deceased and their family.
If you lack empathy, transparency, and professionalism, why run a funeral...
Read moreOur family is forever grateful to Kim Minho Funeral Home for the incredible care and compassion they showed during my father’s funeral. Mr. Kim made himself available for a phone consultation and an in-person meeting the following day after my father's passing and went through each step of the process with efficiency and ease.
On the day of the funeral, Mr. Kim and his team were there for us every step of the way, always available when we needed them, yet quietly behind the scenes to give our family and loved ones the privacy and space to say goodbye. From setting up the picture frames to helping us carry the flower arrangements back to our cars, every detail was handled with such thoughtfulness, respect, and grace. Their warmth and professionalism brought comfort and peace to all of us during an unimaginably difficult time.
Thank you, Mr. Kim and team, for treating my father and our family with such dignity and heart. We will never forget your kindness...
Read moreI was overwhelmed with fear and had no idea what to do after the sudden passing of a family member. Then I remembered a friend once sharing how wonderful their experience with Director Minho Kim was. Without hesitation, I called Director Kim.
From the moment I spoke with him on the phone, all my fears melted away. He guided us with such care and calmness throughout the entire process of honoring our loved one. It was truly a comforting and peaceful journey thanks to him.
I’m deeply grateful. If anyone finds themselves in a situation like mine, I wholeheartedly recommend reaching out to Director Minho Kim—you will receive the same compassionate support I did.
Thank you so much, Director Minho Kim and Manager...
