Taylor graduated from Girard Academic Music Program (Philadelphia, PA) in 2016 where she was involved in Colorguard, Concert Choir and theater productions such as Fiddler on the Roof, Shrek the Musical, and West Side Story. After focusing on music throughout middle school and high school, she changed her academic focus to science. In 2020, Taylor graduated from Pennsylvania State University with a Bachelor of Science in Biology. Attending the Commencement Ceremony from her bedroom during a pandemic was not how she expected to close this chapter.

However, the isolation from family, friends, and the rest of the world allowed her to invest in her career path and map out what her next steps would be. After being inspired by the lead female funeral director in the Haunting of Hill House and educating herself on funeral services by talking with other directors, she was enrolled in the Mortuary Program at Mercer County Community College in September 2021. She graduated in December 2022 with an Associates in Funeral Service and became a licensed Funeral Director by July 2023.

Her favorite activities include cheering for all Philadelphia Sports Teams, attending musicals at the Academy of Music, traveling, spending time with family, friends, and her pets, visiting new restaurants, and outdoor festivals. She has a passion for fitness, cooking, and a special dedication to serving each family who walks through the doors of the funeral home.

Justin Megaro is a licensed funeral director who has been working in the South Jersey area for over 10 years. He joined The Boucher Funeral Home fulltime in September of 2024.

Justin graduated from Nutley High School in 1998 and was heavily involved in the music and drama programs as well as a member of The National Honor Society and captain of the school’s rifle team. After high school, he attended County College of Morris to study music/classical guitar. Justin worked full-time after graduation at The Guitar Studio in Berkely Heights as a private instructor while serving his two year-apprenticeship period weeknights and weekends.

Justin made the decision to pursue a career in the funeral industry full-time and became a licensed funeral director in 2012 after graduating from American Academy McAllister Institute. He is the recipient of the school’s William F. Flooks, Sr. Memorial award for proficiency in clinical embalming.  

A lifelong musician, Justin teaches guitar/bass lessons through the Afterschool Music Program in Pitman and Woodbury on weeknights.

Talia graduated from Gateway Regional High School in 2022, where she was on the academic honor roll during her time there. In late 2021 she decided after graduation she would study Funeral Service, previously wanting to enter the medical field. So, in September 2022, Talia started taking classes at Mercer County Community College, and she entered the Mortuary Program and joined the funeral home in September 2024. 

In her free time, Talia enjoys watching live music, shopping, crocheting, and going to antique stores all around New Jersey. Talia also loves all the time she gets to spend with her family and friends.
