Newcomer Funeral Home Akron blog

Our Blog

Welcome to our blog. Here we will share information with you on topics ranging from cremation and funeral planning to grief support and positive living.

Sharing information with you is only half of our job, though. The other half is listening. Your thoughts, opinions, and ideas are extremely valuable to us. After we publish each article, we’ll post a link on our Facebook page. Visit us there to take part in a conversation about our latest topic.

You can also sign up for our quarterly email newsletter to receive ongoing updates.
