Northwood Funeral Home

Northwood Funeral Home & Crematory has been a cornerstone of the West Palm Beach community since 1952, providing compassionate, family-focused funeral and cremation services for over seven decades. As a fully licensed funeral establishment, Northwood offers a comprehensive range of options including traditional burials, cremations, memorial services, visitations, and viewings—all without the corporate overhead that often drives up costs. The home is family-owned and operated, with a dedicated team led by owner and licensed funeral director Paul, who brings 36 years of experience to every family he serves.

Conveniently located at 5608 Broadway Avenue on U.S. Highway 1, the funeral home is easily accessible from major medical centers, cemeteries, and Palm Beach International Airport. The facility features a wheelchair-accessible entrance and parking lot, ensuring comfort for all visitors. Northwood also operates an on-site crematory, allowing families peace of mind knowing their loved one never leaves the care of the trusted staff.

Services are designed to be both affordable and personalized. Cremation packages start at $1,285, and burial packages at $2,745. Families can arrange services online through a simple five-step process, from notifying the care team to receiving death certificates and cremated remains. For those planning ahead, Northwood offers pre-planning options that relieve loved ones of difficult decisions during emotional times.

The staff respects all faiths and works closely with families to honor diverse traditions and beliefs. Unlike direct disposers, Northwood is a fully licensed funeral home capable of conducting full funeral rites, memorials, and viewings. The team is available 24 hours a day, with no answering service—families speak directly to a real funeral director.

Northwood has earned a stellar 5-star rating on Google Maps, with 44 reviews praising the compassionate and attentive care provided by staff members like John and Ernie. Testimonials highlight the home’s long-standing reputation, with some families returning for multiple generations. The funeral home also maintains an online obituary gallery and offers resources to help families navigate the difficult decisions surrounding burial versus cremation.
