Special Things We Do
A funeral service is a tribute to a life lived and your family deserves the best. Compagnola Funeral Home will make every effort to comfort all involved with this transition. Before we invite your guests in to pay final respects, our staff will personally go over minute details. The director will check for the proper placement of floral arrangements and our beautician will ensure appearance is acceptable. Our attentive staff will be by your side during any visitation to handle any requests you or your guests may have. Please browse below to see what other service details we are able to offer.
Pre-Arrangements - People today understand planning a funeral in advance of the need demonstrates love and compassion for their families. A preplanned funeral is a thoughtful decision that reduces the stress when death occurs. Funeral Insurance comforts our families by reducing out of pocket expenses at the time of need. We urge our community to purchase Funeral Insurance considering the expense assumed when somebody passes away.
Worldwide Shipping - repatriation services promise to transfer human remains from USA to his/her country of origin. This is an involved process of securing necessary documents through city officials, state representatives and consulates in order for the remains to clear customs in their receiving country. International transfer of human remains should be reserved for experienced providers that understand the laws and requirements. Our network of national and international affiliates enable us to be Philadelphia's trusted source for worldwide shipping.
Dove Release - Since biblical times the release of white doves has been symbolic of peace, love, unity and new beginnings. 11 doves are released at the burial ground during the commital, as one single doves stays in its cage. When the casket is lowered into the earth, the single dove is then released, joining its family flying in the sky as the departed soul regroups with their family of the past.
Floral Tributes
- We have teamed up with one of the oldest florist in the city of Philadelphia to ensure quality designs and service. Riehs Flower opened its second location in 2011 in our facility directly next to out chapel. "Flowers are the visual expression of love, sympathy and respect. They are means of lending support and sharing the burden of grief”.
Memorial Stones
- Compagnola and Sons Monuments Company has provided mason details in Philadelphia and the surrounding counties for over a decade. Our plan is to work together to create a lasting memorial for your family grave. After we have a vision, we contact our network of granite quarries to obtain a no obligation quote for the headstone. The stone is designed, shipped and installed all under our direction and supervision.
Photo/Video Services - We have seen an increase in social media involvement with our services. If a family wishes to document this event professionally, we have a network of producers that will capture the moment as you see fit in a non invasive manner.
