Meeting With The Director…

Showing a Brochure

We are committed to helping you.

Commonly called “The Arrangement Conference” you may meet with a Director at our locations in Greenwich Village or Midtown Manhattan.

If you do not have Cemetery property our Director will provide information on your options.

At the beginning of the Arrangement Conference, you will be given a copy of our General Price List. Every service or item we offer with its cost is contained in it. The type of service you wish will be discussed. Chapel, church, synagogue or graveside services are usual options. A dignified selection of Caskets, Urns and Vaults are available for your inspection on premises, along with the Price List and Outer Interment Receptacle Price List catalogs to show the specifications and cost of each item.

It is important for those interested in a burial to know that embalming is NOT required by law in New York State unless a viewing takes place.

You may also have some questions about the funeral or memorial services, costs, documentation and other matters. Our Directors will guide you so that your cost will be within your means and that the service that you plan will be meaningful.
