Hill Funeral Home was established in East Greenwich in the 1800's at its former location in the center of town on Main St. by the Hill family. The family tradition of funeral service continued when the Cranston family bought the funeral home and moved it to its current location at 822 Main St. After managing the funeral home for four years, Michael E. Caparco purchased it in 1976.
Most of us plan ahead in life. We plan for our wedding, our children's education, family vacations, and other significant expected life events. We also plan for the unexpected events of life by purchasing home, auto and medical insurance. Understanding the benefits of pre-planning has prompted many to take the step to plan their own arrangements.
Many who have undergone the emotional strain of arranging a funeral within hours of losing a loved one have made the choice to pre-plan their own funeral. Doing so lifts the burden from their loved ones by relieving decision-making pressure at a time of grief and emotional stress. Funeral arrangements are a deeply personal choice.
Most of us are not prepared to plan and carry out a funeral ceremony for someone we love. And so much of the information available on this critically important subject fails to focus on what is most important: having a personalized, meaningful funeral that helps families and friends begin the healing process of mourning after the death of someone we love.
Someone you love has died. You are now faced with the difficult, but important, need to mourn. Mourning is the open expression of your thoughts and feelings regarding the death and the person who died. It is an essential part of healing. The following articles provide many practical suggestions to help you move toward healing in your unique grief journey.

Called the funeral home once I learned that my ex had placed a FRAUDULENT obituary of my son, listing his new wife as my son's mother. I called Hill and told them I would email, fax, send the copy of my son's birth certificate, and death certificate, and medical examiner's report, listing me as his mother.
Hill declined to hear any of it and would not make any changes. DO NOT USE THIS FUNERAL HOME!
It could happen to you or one of your family members.

I can not honestly recommend this place even though it is literally right down the road from my house. I contacted this funeral home a few weeks ago using their online form to set up a meeting to figure out planning for my fathers funeral. Currently he is Stage 4 refractory cancer and knows that his time is coming near. We spoke about doing pre-arrangements so its one less thing we have to worry about when that time comes. To this date, I have yet to hear a single word from them, not an email, not a phone, not a single thing. While I understand this industry and going in there is a hard thing to
