In light of the current health crisis, we understand the need to limit exposure and ensure your safety. That is why we offer the convenience of making most funeral arrangements over the phone. Simply give us a call at 201-939-1050, and our compassionate team will assist you with all necessary arrangements. We also encourage family and friends to post condolences online, providing comfort and support to grieving families. As restrictions are lifted, we suggest considering a "Celebration of Life" service, open to friends and relatives, followed by a Mass or Religious Service if desired. We are here to navigate these changes together, answering your questions and providing the same quality of service and respect you deserve.

At Calhoun-Mania Funeral Home, we understand that the grieving process doesn't end with the funeral. That's why we offer additional support through our daily grief support email program, as well as a weekly newsletter providing insights, quotes, and messages to help you during the first year of loss. We encourage families to have conversations about life and what matters most, promoting meaningful memorialization.

We are honored to serve you during this difficult time, providing you with the utmost care, compassion, and respect. You and your family remain in our daily prayers, and we wish you all the best of health. Stay safe and healthy.
