At Alderson-Ford & Buckmiller Ford Mengacci Funeral Homes, we understand that every life tells a story — and every story deserves to be remembered with care, dignity, and meaning.


For over a century, our family of funeral homes has walked alongside generations of families in Naugatuck, Waterbury, Cheshire, and beyond. With deep roots and a proud legacy, the recent joining of Buckmiller Ford Mengacci with Alderson-Ford represents the strength of two respected traditions coming together — united by one purpose: to care for every family as if they were our own.


We believe that funerals are not just about saying goodbye — they are about honoring life. Whether traditional or uniquely personal, every service we arrange is a heartfelt tribute to the individual, and a source of comfort to those who grieve.

Our dedicated team of licensed funeral directors and staff are here to guide you through every step, offering compassionate support, expert planning, and an unwavering commitment to excellence. We listen first. We serve with integrity. And we help  you create moments that matter — through music, color, words, and meaning.


You are not alone.  We are here — not just for the day of the service, but for the days, weeks, and months after.  Because healing is a journey, and community matters.



Let us walk with you — not just through loss, but toward remembrance, meaning, and peace.
