We were in an urgent situation, with our brother on hospice and we were in from out of town, in St. Pete, to help him. We were needing funeral home services and our brother's pastor from Faith Fellowship of St. Pete, had recommended DeGusipe FH, as he and a parishioner had a recent positive experience with them. We were pleasantly surprised at how wonderful DeGusipe was with us. Funeral Home Director, Amy Norris, was pleasant, respectful, and professional. She spent time with us explaining everything and was very patient, as we were obviously overwhelmed. We had communicated that our brother's request was to have his ashes buried at sea, off of the coast of his beloved Treasure Island, and Todd DeGusipe and Amy Norris were more than helpful, in accommodating that request. They made a very difficult and painful process easier to bear and Amy was with us every step of the way. We are forever grateful to DeGusipe Funeral Home and highly recommend their services.

The staff at DeGusipe Funeral Home was very compassionate and easy to work with. Most of our family lives out of town, and we were able to make arrangements with Amy over zoom. Their cosmetician gave us the gift of seeing our mom's face in a gentle and peaceful way. The room where her service was held was pleasant and light, not heavy and gaudy like some services I've been to. We appreciate the way DeGusipe took care of everything so that we could gather as a family and concentrate on honoring the life of our mom.

The funeral home is modern with updated lobby and viewing area/memorial service area. The reception area is also spacious and well- lit. The highlight why we chose this funeral home after visiting 6 others, is the personal touch that the staff offered to our family. From planning, to our specifics, dates, etc - Amy was very accommodating. When it came to making our cards, and a link to obituary and service, Capry worked with our designs. Her efficiency made the cards and obituary done in 2 hours. Kohl is a special mention also because of his kindness to us; it was notable from the moment he picked up our loved one to the burial. During the service, he and Capry endlessly offered their assistance from song playlists to more vases, etc. ( and we were very specific people about the funeral). George was very effective in giving instructions to pallbearers making sure the procession to the cemetery was smooth. His kindness was again palpable. I wouldn't wish any more loved ones departing. But I would certainly recommend their service. It made a very pleasant and commendable experience for my family. Not forgetting to mention about the cost of everything at their service being very reasonable. Thank you once more.

Pete Grasso and staff at DeGusipe Funeral Home are very professional and kind during what is an extremely difficult time. They provided outstanding service and showed empathy to our family which helped ease our minds and allowed us to focus on our family. I would recommend DeGusipe Funeral Home without any reservations to assist your family with arranging a loved one’s funeral.

Very positive experience with DeGusipe’s funeral home. The facility is very well done and much nicer than the facilities close to it. Pricing was a huge factor, as well as, their crematorium being on site which made it an easy decision at a not so easy time. Their staff was friendly, caring and very knowledgeable. The after care we received from them and the owner was just as welcoming. Highly recommend DeGusipe’s funeral home. Top notch.

A dear friend passed unexpectedly, and DeGusipe Funeral Home in St. Petersburg handled the arrangements and funeral. The staff was very professional and truly cared about how the people that were left behind were feeling. The facility apparently was newly remodeled, and it showed. Their attention to detail was clear, the moment I walked into the facility. Overall, a great experience, given the the unfortunate circumstance. I would highly recommend DeGusipe Funeral Home. It is the same building that used to be R. Lee Williams & Son, but with a brand new look and feel.

My Mother passed away on March 7th, 2024. I contacted DeGusipe Funeral Home and they handled the removal of her body at 10:30 pm from Hospice. She was taken to their premises and my sisters and I met with Pete Grasso, Funeral Director the next morning to make arrangements. During this very difficult time, Pete went over all of the burial options available to us. Todd DeGusipe, the owner assisted us as well and both were very kind and patient. We held a family viewing at 9:30 am at the funeral home and then a graveside service at Sylvan Abbey Cemetery. Because of the kindness and attention to detail while following our wishes , I truly recommend DeGusipe Funeral Home & Crematory.

My aunt passed away and it was totally unexpected. I made several phone calls to different funeral homes and when I called DeGusipe funeral home I knew they would be the ones handling her services. The funeral home is inside and outside is absolutely beautiful and I couldn’t get over how I was treated. The staff was there to answer all my questions and when I asked for a call back I got it . And to top it off the owner of the funeral home Todd DeGusipe called me and said thank you for allowing us to handle your aunts funeral.. I can’t say enough positive things about this wonderful place. Please trust me and go with DeGusipe Funeral Home It’s A+..

Great Staff and beautiful facility. Good parking and ease of entry for elderly guests. They are only about a mile or 2 from Old Northeast and Downtown St Petersburg and have a much nicer facility than some of the others. I was surprised to learn their cremation services were much less expensive. I thought everyone would be about the same. They handle all the paperwork for Arlington National as well. Very Nice people.

Very compassionate funeral home. They provided a very positive experience during a difficult time. They thought of and handled everything allowing us time to grieve. The facility is very clean and traditional. They prepared the body very naturally. We visited several places and am so glad we chose R. Lee Williams

I’d like to personally thank Aurora, Capry, & my husband Kohl Rachlin for taking the time out to help my sister’s & I to plan out our father’s cremation & Celebration of Life Service here this past Sunday (02/16/2025)! Everything went beautifully smooth even down to making the obituary that my sister Jasmine had made down to the trifold flyers, prayer cards & etc & for allowing my sister’s & I to set up the chapel for the service! But I’d like to give a special thanks to Todd DeGusipe for allowing us to have the honor of using the FH & for allowing my husband Kohl Rachlin take care of our father & to help work the service down to helping with setting the date for the cremation….This FH will FOREVER hold a cherished spot in my heart for a life time including the staff that helped make this happen…..I HIGHLY recommend this Funeral Home….❤️
