DellaVecchia Funerals & Cremations

DellaVecchia Funerals & Cremations, located at 690 Woodtick Road in Wolcott, Connecticut, is a family-owned funeral home dedicated to serving the community with compassion, professionalism, and personalized care. Founded in 1948 by Arthur C. Dellavecchia and his wife Helen Simone, the business began with a vision to provide elite yet affordable funeral services in Southington. The couple’s commitment to excellence led to the opening of a second location in Wolcott in 1967, expanding their ability to support families across the region. Over the decades, the family legacy continued as their son David became a licensed funeral director and later joined by daughter Adele and her husband Philip Fama. Today, DellaVecchia Funerals & Cremations is proud to be part of the Dignity Memorial® network, the largest provider of funeral, cremation, and cemetery services in North America, while still maintaining the personal touch that has defined the business for more than 70 years.

At DellaVecchia, every life is celebrated uniquely. Whether families choose a traditional religious funeral, a contemporary celebration of life, or a simple cremation, the team works closely with loved ones to design a service that reflects the passions, personality, and memories of the deceased. The Wolcott location features an onsite chapel that can accommodate groups of all sizes and can be arranged to suit any vision. The funeral home also offers catered receptions, from breakfast buffets to ice cream socials or full dinners, coordinating with local caterers to handle every detail. For those seeking outdoor celebrations, the staff can create memorable events such as evening picnics with live music or themed gatherings.

Cremation services are a significant part of DellaVecchia’s offerings. The team educates families on the many cremation options available, from direct cremation to full funeral services before or after cremation. They also provide cremation jewelry, assistance with scattering ashes, and delivery of remains. Pre-planning is another cornerstone of their service, allowing individuals to make arrangements in advance to relieve loved ones of emotional and financial burdens. The funeral home offers prepayment plans with flexibility and relocation protection within the Dignity Memorial network.
