About Perry Funeral Home

Perry Funeral Home is an independently owned, full-service funeral home serving the Newark, NJ area. As a full-service provider, they are equipped to assist families with a range of arrangements, and direct cremation starts at $1,300, which is a relatively accessible price point worth comparing against other local providers. Their Google rating of 3.4 stars across 75 reviews is notably lower than what many families might hope to see, and with a meaningful number of reviews, that pattern is worth taking seriously as you evaluate your options. Families are encouraged to read through the reviews carefully to understand what concerns have been raised before making a decision during this difficult time.
