I'm writing to tell you what a pleasure it was to work with Fern. Despite all the difficulties…including a hurricane of all things… we were able to have the funeral …from church to mausoleum …without a hitch.

This was all due to Fern. She was competent and calm.. despite my histrionics…a real professional. I am still getting feedback from the attendees regarding how wonderful the funeral was.

Forest Hills has certainly earned my as well as many others business in the future.

My recent visit with my husband to Forest Hill Funeral Home in Palm City, Florida was so informative. My husband and I have delayed the pre planning arrangements for our funerals for sometime. Who wants to deal with this final stage of a person's life? Well we did, and are so grateful that we had Marsha Godwin, to guide and educate us with all our choices and decisions. When you have husband and wife together, and you are guided by a professional person, like Marsha, so much of the stress and anxiety are relieved. Each person is informed of their choices in the funeral arrangements and services in a caring and economical manner. The documents that you also receive will also assist other family members in knowing the details of your funeral. I would definitely encourage a visit to Forest Hill Memorial Park before the death of a loved one. At this time, you are emotionally in a much better frame of mind to make your decisions.

I can't say enough good things about my experience with Forest Hills Funeral Home in Palm City. The staff here are an amazing group of caring professionals who helped me during the most difficult time of my life. Marsha, Bridget, Galina, and Brian all helped me find an ideal space, and provided detailed planning for my husband's arrangements. All of them displayed great patience, kindness and compassion towards me. Everything has exceeded my expectations, and I have peace of mind knowing I chose the right place. On top of the exceptional customer service, the landscape is well maintained, and I love visiting because it's so beautiful and peaceful here. You can't go wrong choosing Forest Hills.

Service above and beyond that shows a great deal of empathy, caring and respect for the loved ones of family. All qualities you certainly want in staff when they are going to be handling one of the most difficult and emotional times of your life, the passing of a loved one. I would 100% recommend Forest Hills Memorial Park and the professional staff, like Marsha.

My husband and I recently went to Forest Hills to plan our pre-need funeral arrangements. We worked mainly with the nicest young lady we have met in a very long time, Bridget Childers. She was extremely informative, yet allowed us to make our own decisions. Never once did we feel that she was pushing us in a direction to spend additional funds on items that was not necessary. This may sound a little strange coming from someone who is reviewing a funeral home and cemetery, but we laughed over and over again because she was so personable . Thank you Bridget for everything that you did for us. We also worked with Galina Wingate on Bridget's recommendation and that too was a wonderful experience. Thank you Forest Hills for making what could be an awkward situation of very meaning experience

Upon my husband's sudden passing I contacted Forest Hills. Brian called me right away and started what I now refer to as "my healing". He handled every little detail. The warmth displayed by the staff and Brian's "anything you need" attitude came through even from behind their masks! My needs were treated with respect and dignity. I truly feel that, should I need help in the future, Forest Hills will be there.

Couldn't have ask for a more professional and caring staff. They took what could have been a stressful process and made it very easy. Their prices are very affordable... especially when your pre-planning.

I have been to two different services at this home. I have noticed this home is very caring, compassionate and profession. They are very hospitable and very courteous and it's obvious they care about their clients and their families.

I never tend to rate things typically but I felt compelled to rate Forest Hills Cemetery for a phenomenal job with my mothers funeral yesterday. During the entire process you could not have found a more compassionate and knowledgeable staff, especially our funeral director Antonio. He covered every single detail. They made a very difficult time manageable.

Forest hills did my mothers funeral in 2003, grandfathers in 2015 and my grandmas yesterday. Their services were so beautiful. And I appreciate all the work they did for us. They made the grieving process a little easier by taking the stress off of us as much as possible. Thank you Forest Hill for everything you did for us.

Both my Mother & Brother found their final 'resting place' with God & a niche located in Butterfly Garden facing a lake.

Helen Posy was so wonderful, caring, respectful, & helped me with all of the details during two very difficult times in my life. The small, private, outside services was sweet, & perfect for both my dearly love Mother and Brother. Also, must mention the cemetery grounds are lovely, peaceful, & well taken care of by the grounds keepers. And, the Butterfly Garden area(s) are comforting & beautiful! There is also a trickling stream in the garden next to my loved ones niches. Many people have purchased garden benches in honor of their loved ones anyone visiting can sit to just pause, reflect, and/or pray. I highly recommend Forest Hills Memorial for all it has to offer for anyone. 5 Stars

Condolence From: Louis Strano
Condolence: It has been awhile to find the words when you lose a friend like Bob. Bob was my brother=in-law. y sister, Barb, met him a couple of years ago. When I first met Bob, I could tell he was a great guy just the way he treated my sister. They were so in love like a couple of teenagers. As I got to know Bob better, I found a man who was a real gentleman. He was kind, smart, compassionate, down to earth and funny. We laughed alot. I believe people are put into your life for a teason and I feel I am a better person for knowing Bob. He will be missed by many. Rest in peace, brother,Bob. Love, Lou

Condolence: It is with a heavy heart that I share my condolences on the passing of such a wonderful man, Robert Martel. Although I have only known Bob for a short time, he always had a smile on his face, and always was laughing with and joking with his wife Barbara. It brought joy to my heart when I would hear Bob speak of all of his love for Barbara, and how happy they were together. Even in his final days at the hospital, he was trying to crack jokes to get Barbara to laugh and not worry. It was clear to see that this was truly a man that cared so much for the people that he loved, and the people that meant so much to him. To his family, his children, and his wife Barbara, I pray that your hearts will find peace that he is now in the hands of the Lord. May your minds be full of all of the wonderful memories that you created with him, and may your hearts always carry the great abundance of love that he carried in his heart. His loving spirit will be with you always. With my love and deepest sympathy, Rev. Scott.

Condolence: I only knew Bob for a short time. Sometimes you meet someone you hope you will know forever. Bob was one of those people. His kindness, generosity, great humor and zest for life were the essence of his personality. He will be sorely missed by many. I know God has a purpose for Bob in Heaven as He had a purpose for Bob while he was living. I believe His ultimate purpose was to put Bob and Barbara Jean together as soul mates. A love so strong is a rare and beautiful gift they gave to one another. The happiness they shared will always be alive in Barb's heart. Love never dies.

Condolence: To Bob's children, sister, and family. Bob was a wonderful person and favorite cousin. I loved him dearly as you all did. Lets keep his memory as we knew him with all our love. RIP If our love and tears could bring you back it would be wonderful but we will have to live with our memories. Say hello to Aunt Mary and Uncle Bill and Richard.

Condolence: To Bob's girls, my heart goes out to you. I can't help but think of the conversations Bob and I had over the past several years and how they suddenly stopped. Each time we talked he would just go on and on about his girls and his grandchildren. He was so happy to get boys along with his sweet granddaughter. You girls were his life and his biggest accomplishment! Please hold the memories close. God bless you girls and your moms during this time. God bless all that we're lucky enough to have Bob pass through their lives , we are forever better to have known him💔❤️
