Embalming

• Embalming

We use embalming today for two primary reasons - to allow adequate time between death and burial to observe social customs such as visitations and funeral services, and to prevent the spread of infection. While New York State does not require embalming it is a policy of this Funeral Home if:

• there will be an open casket visitation / funeral service
• if the remains will be in the Funeral Home for more than 48 Hours
• if burial is delayed more than 72 hours, ie Spring Burials
