The Kowalski Funeral Home was established at its current location at 515 Roselle Street, Linden, New Jersey, by John E. Kowalski Jr. during the 1950's. He believed in old fashioned ideas, like Service, Commitment, Caring, Tradition and Faith. In 1980 he was joined in his pursuit of excellence in these areas, by his daughter, Teresa V. Kowalski, Executive Director.
I realize that my strength comes from our family and I know that the same is true for you. It was through my father that I was taught the values of family and tradition. As a result, I've steadily built my reputation on my genuine concern for the families I serve. I want you to know that I am here to help you.

A funeral is a time for family and friends to pay tribute to the life of a person, who even in death, still touches their lives. It is a time to laugh, to cry, to grieve even as we share memories of days gone by and to marvel at the influence that this loved one had on our emotions, our thoughts and even our actions.
During the course of an arrangement conference, a multitude of financial decisions are made. The selection of merchandise offerings by the Kowalski Funeral Home is geared to offer every family a broad spectrum of choices, covering all range of prices. Full open and half couch caskets are made in a variety of styles and interiors and are composed of materials from wood and metal, from corrugated cardboard to solid bronze.
The Kowalski Funeral Home has been serving families in the area since 1957. I care for all the people I serve and strive to so the best for each and every one of you. As part of my complete service package, I am pleased to offer for sale, headstones, grave markers and the engraving and updating of these items, through my CHERISHED MEMORIES division.
The basic Military Funeral Honors (MFH) ceremony consists of the folding and presentation of the United States flag to the veterans' family and the playing of Taps. The ceremony is performed by a funeral honors detail consisting of at least two members of the Armed Forces. The Funeral Honors rendered to you or your veteran will be determined by the status of the veteran.
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) furnishes upon request, at no charge to the applicant, a Government headstone or marker for the unmarked grave of any deceased eligible veteran in any cemetery around the world, regardless of their date of death. When the grave is already marked, applicants will have the option to apply for either a traditional headstone or marker, or a new device (available spring 2009).

This is not a business. It is a ministry, something seemingling lost in the conglomerates that now run these services throughout the area. Throughout my life, i have lost love ones. As many know, the pain is unbearable. I trust Ms. Kowalski completely to tend to our needs.To her, each and everyone is family. She is understands the pain of our loss. She is extremely professional yet totally compassionate. Without hesitation, i would recommend Kowalski Funeral Home.

I wanted to take the time to thank terry for helping with all the detailes and mainly wanted to rate this business 5 stars because she doesnt put her business first she puts the family's needs specially when going thru a difficult time.
My father passed away during these crazy time that we are living in with the virus and not only did she understand how difficult it was to not have the abilty to be by my fathers side when he passed but made it a propriety to give him the goodbye that my dad deserved. I will always be greatful and will definitely keep her number in my contacts for future need

Please note that the "review" posted by "Nick K." is, upon information and belief, a resident of Monmouth County who has not procured services from Kowalski Funeral Home nor have they in fact, ever dealt with KFH in any capacity. As such, we are investigating the origination of the review which is a blatant attempt to discredit and harm a longstanding business, have advised Google of the attempt at internet trolling for purposes of libel and do intend to prosecute upon confirmation. Kowalski Funeral Home thanks you for your understanding with regard to dealing with unwarranted internet attacks
