Daniels & Hutchison Funeral Home
2024 First State Favorites North Winner
2024 BBB Torch Award for Ethics Winner Many patrons choose the funeral home for its Victorian charm, off-street valet parking, and large facilities. The updated facilities feel like a home away from home for all

to gather and honor the life of the deceased. The funeral home is located near many churches and cemeteries for convenience. If you have questions about prices and programs offered, the funeral planning team will get you the answers. You can even ask about the no-cost cremations. Daniels & Hutchison Funeral Home is a traditional funeral home ready to fulfill your funeral or memorial needs. If traditional funeral is not your style, consider planning life celebrations to honor the unique personality and achievements of your deceased loved one. You can keep things casual or follow formal programs according to the personality and wishes of the deceased. Plan a visitation before the funeral and gather for a graveside ceremony after. You can also plan to meet up for a reception where you serve food, catch up with family and friends from out of town, and share memories about a life well-lived. Pre-planning funeral services are available to start now. Do not forget military honors and veteran services, where the funeral planning team is sure to secure your benefits and implement traditions into your funeral plans. Cremation services are also offered. Direct cremation is a low-cost cremation that is respectable and lovely. You can plan a Scattering of Ashes ceremony on your own time after the cremation is complete. Or plan a cremation with a memorial service so that loved ones can attend to pay their respects. Daniels & Hutchison Funeral Home stays involved with the Middletown, Bear, Townsend, Odessa, St. Georges, Delaware City, Port Penn, Clayton, Cecilton, MD, Glasgow, and Warwick, MD communities. They are ready to help when a need arises. Choose from a variety of funeral products, such as vaults, caskets, urns, and memorials.
