The Funeraria Luz de Paz, (Peaceful Light Funeral Home), was established in 1997. The original location was 1390 Fairfield Avenue, Bridgeport, CT. At the time we shared the facility with the Lester Gee Funeral Home and its Owner and Funeral director, who will always be appreciated, Lester Gee. After just a year and a half, under the guidance and great insight of Kevin Lesko, of the Lesko & Polke Funeral Home in Fairfield, CT. Since 1995, Kevin has been a mentor and has always provided valuable guidance and insight to the owner and staff alike, having been a seasoned Funeral Director. Having such insights, thoughts, ideas, and overall Kevin has been vital and a priceless asset as to why we became what our firm is today. Our firm relocated from our original facility and were able to obtain the facility we are currently located in, which is the former Abriola Funeral Home of Bridgeport to the Abriola Parkview Funeral Home in Trumbull, CT. It has been our focus and vision to provide the highest levels, yet balanced, quality of facilities, services, Technology every step of the way while in our care. Therefore, our firm has been tastefully decorated to create a pleasing, peaceful atmosphere where families and public alike, can comfortably remember the life of their loved one. We believe everyone should be considered royalty and treated as such. Our goal is that not only we serve families, but they can understand that our entire operation including our facilities, continuing education, and more is developed and cared for at the same level as the care of their loved one. Regardless of any financial limitations anyone may have, we have never turned anyone away for financial hardship, of course, understanding that although we care for them, we cannot control outside sources and the expenses each of those components are compose in the entire funeral process. We strive to provide education and guidance to make wise decisions in every aspect of funeral arrangements.

Our motto is that a family has only One opportunity to accomplish this task correctly, and it is our responsibility to assist them in making those decisions.
