About French Funeral & Cremation Services
Chester T. French founded French Funerals – Cremations, Albuquerque’s oldest and largest family-owned funeral service company, in 1907. His tradition of caring for New Mexico families began at Fifth Street and Gold Avenue in downtown Albuquerque and continues today at our family-owned locations across the city.
Services offered by French Funeral & Cremation Services
Green Services
At French, we are one of only two funeral service providers in New Mexico that are certified by the Green Burial Council, a nonprofit organization that encourages the use of burial as a means of facilitating the restoration, acquisition and stewardship of natural areas throughout the United States. For green arrangements, formaldehyde-based embalming is prohibited, as is the use of metal or concrete grave-liners, burial-vaults or other permanent burial containers. We offer caskets, urns and other containers that are created from natural and biodegradable materials. At Sunset Memorial Park, we provide a tranquil rose garden for the scattering of cremated remains, which not only offers an eco-friendly alternative but a convenient location in the heart of the city.
Grief Assistance
Experiencing the death of a close family member or friend can be overwhelming. French provides one-on-one grief counseling to help you and your family through the grieving process. One-on-one counseling is very helpful, but speaking to others who are experiencing the same grief can also give your family needed support. French provides you and your family that opportunity through our short group programs.
This location has proudly served the local community with exceptional care for years and definitely will help guide your household through memorial service etiquette, personalize your memorial, funeral costs, directions to cemeteries, guestbook, online obituary creation, and telling your life story. When you are interested in preplanning your funeral, you can be sure your legacy will be protected and that you can easily have peace of mind.
