About Us

The mission of the Capital District Funeral Directors Association is to promote the general perception of funeral service as a profession, whose practitioners are committed to the highest ethical standards. Our programs are designed to strengthen the skills of our members, allowing them to successfully operate their funeral firm in a time of significant change in public attitudes and expectations. Encouraging a new generation to enter the profession, the Capital District Funeral Directors Association provides select resources for inquiring students. Also existing to serve the consumer, the Capital District Funeral Directors Association works diligently to cultivate awareness in the general public about the role of the funeral professional, and the importance of ceremony and remembrance.
