Funeral Merchandise

At the Gilpatric-VanVliet Funeral Home Ulster Park NY, we recognize and respect that it is difficult for families to enter a "show room" full of opened caskets and urns. To lessen that stressful burden, our families are offered a high resolution tablet to review caskets and urns, and their available options, for either cremation or burial.

No New York State Law or local law requires you to buy a receptacle to surround the casket in the grave. However, some cemeteries require that that you have such receptacle so that the grave will not sink. Either a burial vault or a grave liner will satisfy these requirements. At the Gilpatric-VanVliet Funeral Home Ulster Park NY, we recognize and respect that it is difficult for families to enter a "show room" full of miniature models of burial vaults. To lessen that stressful burden, our families are offered a high resolution tablet to review burial vaults, and their available options.

Designed to meet the needs of the growing number of families choosing cremation. Gilpatric-VanVliet Funeral Home Ulster Park Town of Esopus NY offers a catalog collection which includes traditional urns made from wood, marble, ceramic, or bronze; as well as biodegradable urns for scattering.

A cremation vault will protect the urn when it is to be interred in the ground. We invite you to view our selection, many of which have unique decorative or functional features.
