Barry McNulty (Funeral Director) met with my wife Alia and I a day after we learned of my brother Michael's death--Barry was highly recommended by our parish community. Prior to meeting Barry I had no experience with the processes, details and responsibilities after a loved one dies. What was the result of our collaboration with Barrry McNulty? Perfection! Absolute perfection! Barry's combination of knowledge, skill, personal attributes and positive dispositions resulted in customer-centric care that was second-to-none. Commendable! My brother Michael received the finest care. This was paramount for my family and I. Barry was exceptional in every regard. Notable from the get-go was his active-listening skills, thorough requirements elicitation, patience, compassion and attention to detail. Barry tailored options to meet and exceed our specific requirements. He patiently allowed us time to decide on what we wanted--what best met our needs. Our final choice of a solution couldn't have been better--thanks to Barry's guidance, insight and experience. His planning and execution of the services Michael received was impeccable. My wife Alia and I will always look back on our collaboration with Barry McNulty as a godsend.

McEvoy-Shields took care of both my parents with absolute professionalism and dignity. All aspects of their planning and execution was perfect and a great help in dealing with the details and the stress of the funerals. My wife and I, along with my mother-in-law have all gone in and arranged our pre-planning. It's a huge load off of my mind, knowing that they'll take care of us.

My father passed away this past November and I was recommended to go through McEvoy. They were nothing but kind caring people. I dealt with probably 4 different people there and a few got to know me pretty well as for a week or so I felt like I was there a lot. My father's funeral was not preplanned and through the process they were there to guide and help with everything. Even after the funeral they were still helping us. In such a hard and difficut time they made it easier. Great place, amazing people who truly care! Again thank you Dan, Shannon, and Eric!

The place was beautiful and well presented. A special thanks goes to Barry who helped us with all the detailed planning before the service, and to Eric who helped and assisted us during the service. Barry and Eric were there to support us in the questions we asked and tasks we needed to do. Once again, thank you so much for the magnificent service and heartwarming support. We are grateful and appreciative of it. With sincere thanks, Emily De Leon and family

My father died in April 2021 He had prearranged his funeral Eric, the funeral director, that we saw once we were at the church, was professional and kind. Other than that, the other staff were disappointing From the intern who called my sister/family and said my father's body was about to decompose (not true) until the end when the small amount of ashes the family requested --- were not set aside -- and not given to us. Very disappointing and upsetting.

They did a great job in assisting my family. Barry is caring and a real gentleman. They also helped us with the paperwork that needs to be dealt with after the death of our loved one.

Everyone that I spoke with at McEvoy-Shields were consummate professionals. The funeral director Barry McNulty is honest, respectful of your situation in time of need and very helpful. Barry is knowledgeable and I had every confidence in his guidance during this difficult time. All other staff that my cousin and I met or spoke to did their jobs professionally especially having to deal with COVID-19 on top of everything else. I would highly recommend using the services of McEvoy-Shields.

Please accept my sincere thank you to Dan Sullivan and team at McEvoy-Shields for the support and kindness during this difficult journey and unprecedented time in the world.

The care and compassion of all staff was outstanding. The attention to detail relieved the stress and allowed our family to concentrate on the bigger picture knowing we were in good hands

Lisha Tang

They have been beyond amazing at taking care of our needs during this difficult time. I'll be eternally grateful at how professional yet caring they were.

Alice Burley

This is my second time dealing with McEvoy-Shields in the past 6 months. My first positive experience is what brought me to them a second time. Dan Sullivan is extremely accommodating as well as all the staff I had the pleasure of dealing with. Having to take care of making arrangements for my loved ones from another province during covid proved itself to be very difficult emotionally. Thanks to Dan’s support, guidance and recommendations it made it easier for me and my family. I will most definitely recommend to family and friends.

The service we received from McEvoy-Shields Funeral Home was honestly heartwarming and unexpected. We thought this process would be overwhelming and stressful, but it was the complete opposite. Our funeral director Dan did everything right, he responded to our calls and emails without delay, he offered us clear information and pricing and guided us through the entire process with such ease and compassion. He even went above and beyond to make things convenient for us and understood what we were going through. We would go back to them in a heart beat and would recommend them to our family and friends. We are so happy we listened to our relatives and friends who have dealt with them in the past because the experience was a great one despite the unfortunate circumstances.

I haven’t experienced the loss of a parent until recently and it’s the hardest thing to ever go through. McEvoy Shields made things easier for our family as there wasn’t much that we had to do or worry about, they took care of everything. They are all so very kind, compassionate, thoughtful and always available at any time. Even though we’re all going through COVID19 right now where funerals (over 5 people) can not be performed, they presented a beautiful Virtual Remembrance Ceremony for those who have lost a loved one during this time. It was perfect! It was such a beautiful Ceremony/Memorial and closure that we wouldn’t have been able to have for my Dad if not for them. I’m glad my father chose McEvoy Shields to help us through this. Once again, thank you all for everything you have done for us. Lisha McCrum and family

Compassionate and timely response during a very difficult time. The staff at McEvoy & Shields were genuinely concerned with my needs and feelings first and foremost, providing much appreciated assistance and direction. Thank you so much.

McEvoy -Shields, Back in October 2019 my family lost our beloved grandmother and within 4 weeks, November 2019, we ended up losing the love of her life, our grandfather. My family and I wanted to take a moment to express our appreciation for such a wonderful experience amidst trying times. Throughout the overall experience, McEvoy-Shields staff never wavered their professionalism and compassion. From the first phone call to the second service we could not have asked for a more respectful experience. With sincere gratitude, Brittany Thibadueau and the Fiedtkou family.
