Meeting With The Director

Peter

Peter C. DeLuca, New Owner

Commonly called “The Arrangement Conference” you may meet with a Director at our Chapel in Greenwich Village.

At the beginning of the Arrangement Conference, you will be provided with a copy of our General Price List. Every service or item we offer with its cost is contained within. Our directors will guide you in your arrangements so that your cost will be within your means and the service that you plan will be meaningful.

Additionally, the type of service you wish will be discussed. Chapel, church, synagogue or graveside services are usual options. 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.

A dignified selection of Caskets, Urns and Vaults are available for your inspection – on premises – along with the Andrett Funeral Home Casket Price List and Outer Interment Receptacle Price List catalogues to show the specifications and cost of each item.

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

Many Questions

With the passing of a loved one, there are many questions. Will the deceased be dressed in their own clothes, clothing purchased from us or a shroud? Do you have a Minister, Priest, or Rabbi? Our Director will guide you.
