About Romano Funeral Home
Romano Funeral Home is a full-service funeral home in Providence, Rhode Island, operating under Service Corporation International (SCI), the largest corporate funeral chain in North America — families who prefer locally or independently owned businesses may want to keep that in mind. Reviews are generally positive, with a 4.7-star rating across 72 Google reviews, and multiple families specifically praise funeral director Carmelo Colon by name for his patience, availability, and compassionate guidance during arrangements. A small number of reviews raise concerns worth noting: one family described staff being audibly loud and inattentive during a service, and another reported an unexpected situation at the graveside that was not communicated in advance — both experiences point to occasional lapses in communication and attentiveness. Pricing information was not available for this location, so families are encouraged to request an itemized General Price List directly from the funeral home, which they are legally required to provide upon request.

★★★★★Carlos Ortega
4 years agoThe staff was rude and emotionless. Showed no compassion. At one point I had to get up and tell them to quite down. They were having a meeting in the back office and you can hear them laughing and having conversations. I don’t recommend this funeral home.
