Farenga Bros. Inc.

Farenga Bros. Inc. Farenga Brothers Funeral Home has been locally and independently owned for 5 generations. The Farenga family began directing funerals in 1896.

Salvatore Farenga grew up in the East Harlem community and worked in funeral service with his family for many years. We quickly became known for our integrity and desire to help those in need. In 1957 Farenga Bros. Funeral Home moved to the Eastchester section of the Bronx. Since then the funeral home at 920 Allerton Avenue has been expanded, renovated, and continues to stand as a mainstay in the

community. Now in the 5th generation of the Farenga family, Sal Anthony and his brother Nick have continued the family legacy of providing lasting tributes and have followed their father and grandfather’s example of becoming deeply involved in the community. Creating an atmosphere of trust and serving with the highest level of respect and dignity is our highest priority.

Be gentle as people pass by.
They may be going home
to empty chairs, and beds.
Empty hands that once held another’s.
Empty machines once filled with messages.
Walking with empty arms. Empty wombs.
They stroll by you, wishing the sky
would collapse on top of them
so they could see their face again.
Please be gentle with
the grief that fills them
and the loss that left them
empty.
