I was offered resources for grieving resources if needed. The value for direct cremation was great, it was cheaper than expected. I was able to get a beautiful urn, which has a picture of the beach on it, and then I got to pick out a cross, which was also part of the plan. Kyra was very nice and helpful. I 100% recommended this place.

They were caring, helpful and treated my family with respect and gave us welcome advise when we needed it. From start to finish, they patiently walked us through the process and helped us make the best choice for our family even arranging for a special viewing for the grandchildren to say goodbye to their beloved Papa . My mom did not want to split up my five siblings and wanted us all with her so they arranged for a stretch limo. The cemetery had issues with the actual grave site and they help navigate so that my mother and siblings were satisfied, we had a grave side service and they arranged for chairs for all of the older attendees and a tent. They even assisted with live streaming so that out of town guests could join us. My oldest brother had many many demands and required some extra attention and somehow Rose on the Schugar team was his personal aid and made him feel heard and got him what he needed quickly. We had one day to pull together a service, arrangements and shivas and they helped to get it all done. Thank you for helping us while we were at wits end during one of the worst times in our lives. I highly recommend.

There are times when all of us need to come to grip with reality regarding the inevitable. Ralph…read moreSchugar Funeral Chapel is one of the few ultra Orthodox Jewish funeral home in Pittsburgh. Clearly by far it is the best. They offer funeral packages, graveside packages, or you can make up your own. The chapel is an adequate size for the ceremony. Judaism dictates no open viewing but rather 1 hour visitation before the service. Casket remains closed. Off to the side of the chapel is the mourner's room where family and friends may pay their respects to the deceased' next of kin during that visitation period. They provide you with information on how to find the various cemeteries and give you a small book of prayers, and a listing of the yearly Yahrzeits (Hebrew anniversary of date of passing) for the deceased. Their phone answers 24 hours round the clock so there is always someone available. They provide excellent service and compassion and understanding to the one in need. Another service they offer is a prearrangement which I lean towards. Often times in a period of loss a person is under much duress and as a result has a tendency to overspend. You can arrange an apt with a member of their staff and declare your intentions for your next of kin or for yourself. Around the time of the Jewish High Holidays in the fall they give out complimentary Jewish calendars. I have utilized their services in the past and have been here on a number of occasions. Out of respect for the chapel no photographs please.

Speaking to staff at Lopatich funeral home in advance of my mother's passing, they were very understanding and compassionate with the family members. Being from Illinois and North Carolina made this a bit more challenging for us however, Jason and staff were terrific with communications and making their schedules accommodate with our schedule. Confirming our mother's wishes with us, helping us with all final arrangements, offering his advice and suggestions were comforting to the family at this time when confusion and mourning can easily cloud our thinking. We truly appreciate all that Lopatich Funeral Home did for our families. Sincerely, The Lawson family

My mother and father lived in a retirement community near Oakmont, while my siblings and I are scattered in various places around the US. Mark, Melissa and Megan walked us through the required paperwork (including creating and publishing an obituary in the newspapers), coordinating with the church for a funeral religious service, and the cemetery for the internment. The visitation was well done prior to the church service, and a funeral procession afterwards to the cemetery was seamless.
