About Brugger & Sons Funeral Home

Brugger & Sons Funeral Home is an independently owned funeral home serving the Erie, PA area, which means families work directly with the owning family rather than a regional or national corporation. As a full-service provider, they are equipped to handle both cremation and traditional burial arrangements, covering the range of needs most families have during a difficult time. Their direct cremation starts at $2,070 and traditional burial begins at $2,815, which tends to sit on the more affordable end for the Erie area. On Google, they hold a 5.0-star rating across 41 reviews, though the relatively modest number of reviews means that rating, while encouraging, reflects a smaller sample than some larger providers in the region.
