"Robert Toale & sons and staff were friendly, compassionate, kind, and professional from start to finish. When I went in the office and spoke with Cynthia she made it easy for me to ask questions and talk about what preparations I was looking for. She clearly explained what they offered and the prices. I found that they were amazingly simple and straightforward and most of all reasonable. When my Mother died, they handled everything with sensitivity and ease. Director James kept me updated each step of the way. And made certain that everything was completed just as I had asked for. During the hardest of times I have to say Robert Tolle & Sons was truly a blessing. I am incredibly grateful."

"I thought Kristine very professional, quickly responsive,kind, and also helpful in anticipating other things we should consider. I would recommend her services through Toal any time. Kristine was quietly helpful in helping us think through all our arrangements and needs. It was better than any other experience I've had with funeral arrangements."

"No one wants to lose a loved one but for us it was losing our youngest son at the age of 22. Kristine and her staff are beyond excellent. We were truly blessed by the care Kristine always has for us. She goes above and beyond in every situation and really makes you feel as though she's walking it out with you. We are so thankful for the entire staff and all of the hard work that was delivered during a time when we weren't sure what to do or how to do it. Thank You! We will always refer your names to anyone in need. Thank You again for being amazing during our greatest time of sorrow. Sincerely, Michael and Christy DeFilippo"

"If ever a need for a funeral home, I would recommend Robert Toale and Sons. Not only do they treat you like family, they go over and above to provide you with the best memorial service ever. We took personal items of our loved one to the funeral home, she loved to cook, paint knit and travel, they set the room up beautifully with her stuff and our family and friends were so happy with everything they did."

"I was very pleased with the services of this funeral home. They were kind, quick, courteous, and helped me along with way with every detail. Harry, the director, kept the lines of communication open to me at all time, even during the weekend on his day off. I really appreciated his helpfulness and concern. They printed beautiful laminated cards for our family which was another kind gesture, and I know Harry worked tiredness to find me a priest/deacon at the last minute. Very professional organization. Thank you again."

"Brian Tetric was the exception to all other funeral/crematory directors I interviewed. He read into my character over the phone while I was in severe pain and extended himself professionally, yet with a bedside manner that eased my pain and anxiety during such a difficult time. A true gem of a human being, which rarely I have the honor of experiencing. And while it may not always be possible, he maneuvered outside of the box for us in expedition, in pulling strings to bring Dad to his property immediately, as well as, taking and returning phone calls after hours during the planning phase of our experience. I paid a thousand dollars more to work with RT & Sons because of how Brian approached this situation and for the confidence he instilled in me that he totally had our backs. This mattered while enduring the pain of losing someone so dearly loved who seemed bigger than life. Clearly, Robert Toale & Sons have political ties from generations in the industry and Brian's eloquence was as illuminating as his process. We were given all the time we needed to visit with my father's body prior to cremation. We were offered food and drinks, not to mention great advice on urns, death certificates and upcoming considerations we would soon need to think of. He gave a generous amount of death certificates which has eased our process in settling my Dad's estate. He also gave my family big hugs. It's the little things sometimes that mean so much. We strongly recommend Robert Toale & Sons 100 percent and would expound by adding not even to bother speaking to other organizations. I spoke to them all in the Sarasota area and there simply is no comparison. When we are hurting from loss we all look for angels. Brian was ours. Soft wishes to you and yours while you look for angels during your loss. Most Warmly, Jennifer Ross, CEO, Atlanta Home Theater"

Manasota Memorial Park is close to 100 years old and has many of the early leaders of the Manatee and Sarasota areas within the memorial park. It has also grown across State Road 70 to include an orange grove that was overtaken by oak trees.
