Where Compassion and Value Meet
Samaritan Funeral & Cremation Services is a funeral home in Phoenix, Arizona, serving the Phoenix community. It is part of Samaritan, a family of funeral home locations serving the Phoenix area. We are known for providing a calm, supportive environment and for our knowledge of religious and non-religious traditions.
We provide cremation services, funeral and memorial services, pre-need planning, and catered events. Human composting is available through a licensed partner provider; the process is not performed on-site. Overnight visitations are available by arrangement, and outdoor venues are available for certain gatherings.
Our location includes a chapel and dedicated spaces for identification and private viewings.
