Choose us because our funeral home is Orthodox and we understand your needs. As an Orthodox funeral home, we don’t offer cremation or embalming so you will never find it on our General Price List and our staff will never initiate discussions about it. Taharah and Tachrichim are the standard and used 100% of the time. Our Orthodox package includes all the services and merchandise needed, simplifying your funeral arrangement process.
Our staff members are known throughout the community for their kindness, caring and empathy. Every day our staff is called on by families who need us and we are always there to help. Our entire staff works hard to not only meet our families’ needs but to anticipate them and exceed them.
Ed Sagel and Al Bloomfield have over 50 years of combined experience serving the Orthodox Jewish community. They have assisted countless families with same day burials and burials in Israel. As members of the Jewish Funeral Directors of America, they have numerous Jewish colleagues in North America that they closely work with to bring your loved one back into our local care.
Large corporations answer to shareholders. Multiple branch operations answer to investors. We answer only to you. In our locally-owned company, there is no pressure from the corporate headquarters or investors to increase profits or grow to other communities. "We understand our business will do well when we serve you well.” Albert Bloomfield, Managing Partner.
