Arranging A Jewish Funeral

 If you belong to a synagogue, first contact its Rabbi, office staff, or funeral committee. If you are unaffiliated with a synagogue, you can directly contact one of the funeral homes listed below. The Jewish Funeral Practices Committee of Greater Washington has a contract with Hines-Rinaldi Funeral Home (MD) and Cunningham Turch Funeral Home (VA) to provide a quality, traditional Jewish funeral at a fixed modest price, and with Fram Monument Company to provide modestly priced markers.​

When calling, be sure to ask for the "Jewish Funeral Package." 

What is the Jewish Funeral Package?
The contract price includes picking up the body at the place of death; transportation to the funeral home, the funeral, and the cemetery; refrigeration; a simple casket; and use of the funeral home for the funeral service, if desired. 

In addition, the funeral home will:
  • Help you find a rabbi to conduct the funeral and burial
  • Arrange for a newspaper death notice and complete and pick up certified copies of the death certificate
  • Provide any needed limousine service
  • Help you make necessary burial arrangements with a Jewish cemetery.
The cost of limousine service, printing of the death notice, and copies of the death certificate are fixed under our contract but are not included in the funeral package price.

The funeral package price also does not include the cost of a cemetery plot, cemetery charges for a cement liner (if required), or the charges for opening and closing the grave.
