UNDERSTANDING CEMETERIES

Choosing a cemetery is a personal decision for individuals and their family. A cemetery is entrusted with helping to honor a decedent in a respectful way and providing a dignified place for visitors and mourners to visit.

Selecting a cemetery may be difficult for many reasons including the unfamiliarity with the process, limited interactions and knowledge of the services provided, and unknown costs. Each cemetery offers varying levels of services, types of burials, and memorialization options. Shiva.com's Jewish Cemetery Directory helps you to review and select cemeteries that serve the Jewish community. Search based on location, types of burial, religious specialities, cost and more.
