About Berry-Short Funeral Home

Berry-Short Funeral Home is an independently owned funeral home serving the Milford, DE area. They offer full-service funeral arrangements, though specific details about the range of services — such as pre-planning options, veterans' services, or cremation packages beyond direct cremation — are not available at this time. Direct cremation starts at $1,700, which provides a reference point for families considering that option, though pricing for other services is not currently listed. The funeral home holds a 4.3-star Google rating, though with only 6 reviews, that score reflects a very small sample and may not be fully representative of the broader customer experience.
