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.

Preplanning offers you peace of mind. Here are three more reasons to consider pre-planning today:

1. Make thoughtful decisions at your own pace, without the pressure of time-sensitive circumstances.
2. The ability to consider religious, cultural, and special arrangements that may be difficult to recreate.
3. Understanding service options as well as creating a healthy conversation with your family around the funeral/death.
