Hungerford & Clark Funeral Home

10/02/2026

The building at 110 Pine Street was built in 1903 — and much of its original facade has been carefully maintained to reflect the heritage of both the structure and the surrounding neighborhood.

When Mr. Hungerford chose this colonial home in the 1940s, he believed the setting itself should offer families a sense of dignity and peace. Over 80 years later, we still believe that.

We invite you to visit us — not only in a time of need, but anytime you have questions about planning ahead.

Twenty-five years ago, our nation experienced a loss that changed everything.

On this day, we remember the nearly 3,000 lives lost on September 11, 2001 — and the first responders, many from right here on Long Island, who ran toward danger.

September is a natural time to put things in order.

As the summer winds down and fall begins, many families take stock of what matters most. If pre-arranging your funeral has been on your mind, we invite you to take that step — at your own pace, with no pressure.

At Hungerford & Clark, a free consultation is always available. We'll answer your questions, walk you through options, and let you decide what's right for your family.

There is history in these walls.

The building at 110 Pine Street has stood since 1903 — one of Freeport's oldest colonial homes. Richard Hungerford chose this corner because he believed families deserved a dedicated space for grief and remembrance — not just a borrowed room.

Over 80 years later, that belief hasn't changed. Neither has our address.

Children grieve differently than adults — and they need different kinds of support.

A few things to keep in mind:

👉 Use honest, age-appropriate language. Avoid phrases like "went to sleep" — they can cause confusion and fear.
👉 Let them ask questions and answer simply and honestly.
👉 Keep routines stable. Predictability is comforting during upheaval.
👉 Let them participate in services if they want to. It can bring real closure.
👉 Watch for behavioral changes — grief in children can show up as anger, withdrawal, or regression.
