What Do You Expect to Pay for Final Funeral Expenses?

When you think of final expenses at the end of a great life that has been well lived you are not thinking dollars and cents as you may do with most purchases. We are not thinking clearly at a time like that and our vulnerability could easily be taken advantage of.

Colonial Funerals serving all of Connecticut offers an alternative at this most stressful time.  If you should choose cremation we offer complete direct cremation for $950 with no advances!  It is a dignified final tribute to a loved one and should be considered carefully when making preparations for the departed.

We advise you to please consider cremation.  When you do we can assure you a dignified process at the lowest price in the state of Connecticut.  Isn’t that comforting?  Contact Colonial Funerals of Connecticut at (203) 407-8899.  And please visit our beautiful new website at www.colonialfunerals.com for more information on a variety of services priced with value, professionalism, and dignity.

Funeral Arrangements Should Be Less Stressful

Making funeral arrangements is something that no one ever wants to have to go through--but at some point we all probably will.  At Colonial Funerals, proudly serving all of the state of Connecticut, we understand this and we want to make your experience as stress-free as it can possibly be.  Shouldn’t that be the highest priority of every funeral home?

At Colonial Funerals we do so by offering our prices up-front. We do this because we know in your time of grief, you don't need a pushy salesperson telling you what you need.  Funeral homes all over the country have gotten a deserved reputation for just such tactics.

We are a family owned and operated business. We are a business with a heart which is why we will work with you to make sure that your friend or loved one is given the best ceremony for the most affordable rate.  Nobody wants to negotiate price at a time like this.  Call Colonial Funerals of Connecticut at (203) 407-8899 and see for yourself what dignity combined with affordability is all about.
