Faiths including Islam, Judaism, Buddhism and Baha’i make up the remaining six per cent along with Zoroastrians, Sikhs, and Jains. Therefore funeral homes in Sacramento may be experienced in offering funeral services appropriate for a range of cultures, nationalities and religious beliefs.

There are around 14 Sacramento funeral homes spread throughout the city, serving the needs of bereaved families and individuals. There are also several crematoria and cemeteries offering cremation and burial options.

Several providers offer options of funeral ceremonies in non-traditional places, such as a favorite park, a restaurant, a worship center, or a building in the community. This requires some specific actions to be in compliance with laws, such as getting written permission from the owner of the property and only scattering ashes in places where there is no local prohibition.
