Lamb Funeral Home Inc.

An accommodating Huntingdon Valley funeral home

The 12,000-square-foot Lamb Funeral Home was renovated in 2016 and has two chapels. The larger chapel seats 80 guests; the smaller seats up to 40. In addition, the funeral home has a children’s playroom, which gives busy parents a safe place for their children to stay occupied during arrangements conferences and funerals.

A community room on the cemetery grounds allows families to host catered gatherings. With our professional catering services, you won't need to find an outside caterer. And if you'd like an outdoor event, we can arrange chairs, tables, tents and decor on the lawn.

Personalized funeral services

For intimate gatherings or large events, the funeral home chapels can be customized to reflect the personality and passions of the loved one being remembered. The team at Lamb Funeral Home believes that every life should be well celebrated.

Experts at creating unique and memorable tributes, we know just what to do to create something truly special. For instance, if he was a Philadelphia Eagles fan, we can ask pallbearers to wear team jerseys and decorate the reception in green and white. If she spent her winters on the slopes, we could transform our chapel into a snowy wonderland and serve après-ski treats like hot chocolate, spiced apple cider and cheese fondue.

We can find inspiration almost anywhere. Just leave the details—no matter how big or small—to our imaginative team.

Huntingdon Valley cremation services

There are many options for cremation in Huntingdon Valley—and they're not all equal. We specialize in cremation services that honor loved ones in personalized ways. With space for outdoor services, expertise in scattering ashes and a friendly team who pays attention to every detail, we provide service that is second to none.

More and more people are choosing cremation over traditional burial, but most aren’t familiar with the many options:

• a cremation without a funeral or memorial service of any kind.
• a funeral with your loved one present, followed by cremation.
• a cremation followed by a scattering, cemetery memorialization or celebration of life—or all three.

If you're interested in cemetery placement, Forest Hills/Shalom Memorial Park is among the prettiest in the area. Its cremation options include niches and gardens.

History

After serving his country during World War II, Thomas C. Lamb returned home and enrolled in mortuary school. In 1954, the Thomas C. Lamb Funeral Home opened at its original location on Bustleton Pike in Feasterville, Pennsylvania.

In addition to running his funeral home, Thomas was the Bucks County coroner from 1958 until 1962.

When Thomas died in 1970, his wife, Jane Lamb, continued running the business under a widow's license. Jane’s son, James C. Lamb, helped her run the funeral home until he became a licensed funeral director in 1982.

In December 1994, Lamb Funeral Home relocated to Huntingdon Valley and became a Dignity Memorial provider.
