About Russell J Boyle and Son Funeral Homes

Russell J Boyle and Son Funeral Homes in Providence is part of Service Corporation International (SCI), the largest corporate funeral chain in the country, which means local staff operate under a national corporate structure rather than independent or family ownership. The funeral home offers full-service arrangements, though specific details about cremation, burial options, pre-planning, or veterans services are not available in our current data. Pricing information is not available at this time, so families are encouraged to request a General Price List directly, which funeral homes are legally required to provide. The home holds a 4.1-star rating across 17 Google reviews — a modest review volume — and several customers specifically praise staff members Sarah and John James for their attentiveness, clear communication, and composure when unexpected issues arose; however, two reviewers describe being treated rudely by staff in the parking lot, which is worth noting as a pattern involving non-arrangement interactions with the public.

The entire staff, starting with Sarah, made our family's experience extra special. Sarah kept in constant contact with us and guided us through the entire process. She was extremely sensitive to all of our needs making sure we were happy every step of the way. We had a very full turnout at the fun…

While driving on a busy street attempting to locate the post office me and my partner were ushered in to their parking lot. At first I was grateful we didn't have to make a three point turn in traffic but was soon shocked that the man standing outside began to berate us and told us to have a lousy d…
