Since our founding in 1930 by Sarto Daly, the guiding principle of the Daly Funeral Home has been the commitment to treating each family who comes to us as our own.

As third generation funeral directors, our reputation for providing the highest quality of service is of the upmost importance.

Our dedicated and supportive staff are here to guide you through this difficult journey every step of the way. We take pride in doing our absolute best to ensure your needs are met.

This section contains useful information about what to do when death occurs, funeral etiquette and frequently asked questions. Family and friends getting together to honor a loved one's life is one of the most important steps in the grieving and healing process. You may opt to have a traditional religious or military service, or as more and more people are doing, you can choose to have a non-traditional 'life celebration'.
No matter if a death is sudden, or if it something that was a long time coming, the loss of a loved one makes us feel emotional and overwhelmed. No amount of preparation can fully prepare you for the loss of a loved one. When you are in a heightened emotional state, even the most basic decisions can seem staggering.

In a modern world, death is still a common theme, not being prepared for virtual attendance (streaming live video of services) at the discretion of families is short sighted at best. At the worst - In a time when the world deals with a viral pandemic and families are not allowed to travel to attend services it compounds the grief. This is unconscionable.

Superb. My brother, who lived in Schenectady, died suddenly, and I found that I was in charge of the funeral. The folks at Daly Funeral Home took care of all the arrangements. I live in California, so we did everything remotely by email, phone, and 2nd Day Air. They are tech-savvy. I would not even consider any funeral home that did not have a website. They got back to me really fast. I had special requests, which they honored. I found them trustworthy and reliable. I would "buy again" (a strange way of putting it, these days). In other words, I would hire them again. They get an A+.
