At Dancy Funeral Home, we are proud to continue a legacy of service as the oldest funeral home family in West Essex — bringing more than 100 years of experience, compassion, and unparalleled care to the families we serve.

As a fourth-generation family business, we understand the importance of trust, tradition, and personal connection. When you call us, you reach our family — not an answering service. We are here with you every step of the way.
No two lives are the same, and no two services should be either.
We offer personalized touches such as:

We are proud to offer a wide range of services, including:
Our secure Family Planning Portal helps families organize arrangements, stay connected, and find support — whether you’re across town or across the country. From memorial planning to important aftercare tasks like freezing credit and closing online accounts, we guide you every step of the way.
We combine the care and tradition families expect with the innovation and flexibility modern families need.
