Guide to Funeral Directors in Philadelphia
The city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, is home to over 1.5 million people, with more than 6 million people living in the larger metropolitan area. Apart from being the academic and economic heart of the Delaware Valley, Philadelphia consistently ranks as one of the top 10 richest cities in the world by GDP. There are over 100 funeral homes serving the communities of Philadelphia.
Philadelphia is home to a large number of Puerto Rican, Dominican and Mexican residents, as well as Korean, Chinese and Vietnamese communities, and African and Caribbean residents. As a result, many funeral homes in Philadelphia will be acquainted with the different funeral traditions of various cultures and faiths.
Although around 68 per cent of Philadelphians are Christian, almost one-quarter of the city’s residents do not identify as having any particular religion. This means that Philadelphia funeral homes may have experience arranging secular and non-religious funerals.
As a historically significant city, Philadelphia is surrounded by many old and beautiful graveyards. Greenwood Cemetery and Laurel Hill Cemetery are two such examples, designed in the rural cemetery style and still open to new burials. Faith-specific burial grounds are also available, such as the Har Nebo Jewish cemetery, based in Oxford Circle.
Funeral arrangements in Philadelphia are governed by Pennsylvania state law. Be aware that in Pennsylvania, if the burial or cremation will not take place within 24 hours of the death, embalming or refrigeration is a legal requirement. This may also be required if the person who has died is to be transported. You can further discuss these requirements with the director at your chosen funeral home.
