We pause today to remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001.

We honor the courage of first responders, the resilience of survivors, and the unity that followed.

May we never forget.

The most important gift you can give your family… isn’t something you wrap.

It’s peace of mind.
It’s removing guesswork.
It’s knowing your wishes are known and your plans are in place.

Preplanning your funeral may feel like a hard conversation—but it’s an act of love that lasts far beyond today.

We’re here to walk you through it with care.

Have a worn or tattered American flag? Bring it to any O’Connell Family Funeral Homes location.

We respectfully retire flags by including them during the cremation of a U.S. veteran—a meaningful tribute to both symbols of service.

just kidding kids...love you.

We find families joke about things that make them uncomfortable & that is ok! We just want you to talk about the things that matter.
