About Wetzel & Son Funeral Home Inc

Wetzel & Son Funeral Home Inc is an independently owned funeral home serving the Philadelphia area, which means families are typically working directly with the owners rather than a regional or national corporation. As a full-service provider, they are equipped to handle a range of arrangements including cremation and traditional burial services. Direct cremation starts at $2,295, which sits in a mid-range tier for the Philadelphia market. They hold a 4.4-star Google rating, though with only 8 reviews, that score reflects a limited sample and may not capture the full range of customer experiences — families may want to ask for references or seek additional feedback before making a decision.
