Hodder Farenga

Hodder Farenga Hodder Farenga Funeral Home is family-owned and operated with over 125 years of funeral planning hist

The funeral service ideals in place since 1896 have now been passed to the 5th generation of the Farenga family. Sal Anthony, along with his brother Nicholas, seek to follow the family tradition of caring, and above all, listening to the needs and desires of families the Farenga’s serve. In 2004, the Farenga service extended to the Woodlawn and McLean Heights communities. Sal and Nick continue to implement the Farenga philosophy that has guided the services we have provided for over 125 years.

When a woman is remembered, it’s rarely about what she owned.

It’s her laugh. Her recipes. Her stubborn kindness. The way she showed love.

On International Women’s Day, we’re honoring the things women leave behind that never appear in a will, but last for generations.

What’s one thing a woman in your life passed down to you?

Embalming is one of the questions we hear most. If you’ve ever wondered what it is and why it’s used, we talk through it in this week’s video. This is part of a series we’re sharing throughout March, with more to come.

He served his nation. We serve his loved ones.

We honor veterans with meaningful life celebrations that reflect both their service and the personal qualities that made them unique. From the presence of the honor guard to the sound of taps, every detail is approached with gratitude and care.

After a parent passes, it’s common for siblings to argue or see the world differently. Grief can amplify emotions and old patterns.

Remember: disagreements don’t mean you love each other any less; they mean you’re processing together.

Our team can help families navigate difficult conversations with care and support.

Leave a ❤️‍🩹 if you and your resolved issues after a parent passed.

What to say when someone is grieving:

I'm really sorry.
I'm here for you.
I'd love to help you.
You are important to me.
I miss them too.
I'm thinking of you.
I love you.

What NOT to say when someone is grieving:

Time heals all wounds.
Things have to go on.
You have to be strong.
They wouldn't want you to be sad.
At least they didn't suffer.
You can have other children.
Just keep yourself busy.
