[quote=Anonymous]I just did this, so here are the numbers for my parents. We just paid $1200 for my parents single plot (my dad had been cremated during the pandemic). It will be another $1800 to open the grave and put in the concrete footer for the headstone. So the fees to the cemetery are $3000. They don’t have a yearly maintenance fee. The town requires a vault, which the funeral home adds and that is another $2500. We paid $1200 for a coffin from Costco. The funeral home fees on top of that begin at $7000. The funeral fees for my mom are about $15,000 (which included transporting my mom from VA to NJ, embalming, use of Hearse, funeral director, the fee to the cantor, organist and church, and a dozen other things that have charges associated with it). Flowers are another $500, reception at a restaurant $2000, mass cards $100, etc.[/quote]
