Anderson-McQueen Funeral Homes

I called Anderson McQueen to find out about their animal cremation service and to ask them if they knew a Doctor that would come to my home to bring my puppy over the bridge. They gave me Dr. Harts name and number. I must thank them very very much, she made this whole experience such a warm and gentle time for my puppy and me. I would highly recommend Dr. Hart and Anderson McQueens pet services to any one.

The last 5 days have been filled with sadness and grief, for the loss of our kitty Beeper. It’s amazing how such a small creature changes your life when they come into it, and even more when they leave. We had his memorial service this morning, and it was just beautiful. We were blown away when we walked into the «Rainbow Bridge» room; we knew we were going to have the opportunity to say our goodbyes, but how the room was set up was just amazing, he was at such peace. Beeper passed away on a Friday evening, before contacting Anderson-Mcqueen’s Pet Passages, we did speak with other businesses that provided similar cremation services; with it being a weekend the other company was asking for after hours, and other «fees» for being a weekend; Anderson-​McQueen had no such fees and welcomingly greeted us first thing Saturday morning. Thank you so much Anderson-​McQueen for providing our beloved pet the ceremony he deserved, without taking advantage of us in our fragile state. Our hearts are lighter today, and the healing has begun.

At some time in all of our lives we need a funeral home or a funeral director. This particular time for me I needed a place to take my beautiful dog Brewster to be cremated. They have a separate area for pets. I could not praise this facility more.
From the very first day I reached out by email, the process and communication could not have been better. This facility was the only one of several that replied to me the very same day. Thank you Nikki McQueen, you make me feel so special and spent almost 2 hours talking with me over coffee in your lovely café area while I waited for my boys remains, sharing stories and looking at pictures. Terry is such a gentle, kind soul. He and his wife have 4 rescue dogs so I knew I had the right person to take care of my Brewster. He took all the time I needed and explained everything to me while we also talked about our pets and shared pictures. Kat who was at the front desk when I arrived was so sweet, we watched Brewsters video together and talked. If you love your Pet, when the time comes, Anderson McQueen, a family owned and operated business is where you want to take your loved family member or beloved pet.

No one wants to think about needing to use a funeral home, but it happens. My grandmother passed away recently in Port Orange, FL, but wanted her service to be in St. Pete near where her own mother had died. We did not use this funeral home for cremation, but just as a place to have her memorial. The location was GORGEOUS! The employees were friendly and courteous and showed everyone where they needed to go. They had use of a television for us to hook our computer up to in order to play a slideshow of pictures and music. They had a small playroom for children to play in with lots of toys and even a couch for an adult to sit on to supervise. There was a separate room with coffee, tea, water, and cookies, along with several table and chairs. In the front and back of the home, there were sitting rooms with couches and soft music.
The room in which we had the service was perfect. Behind the podium, was a wall made up of glass windows looking out into an atrium with a beautiful fountain and many parakeets and other birds. It was just gorgeous to watch the birds fly around and the sun shine while remembering my grandmother’s life. It really made the experience peaceful and calming, and I’ll remember it fondly.
