Demarco-Stone Funeral Home, Inc.

For over a century, DeMarco-Stone Funeral Home, Inc. has served families in Rotterdam, Guilderland, and the broader Capital Region of New York with unwavering compassion, professionalism, and trusted guidance. Founded with a commitment to providing dignified, personalized care, the funeral home has grown to become a cornerstone of the community, helping generations navigate the difficult journey of loss with clarity and comfort.

DeMarco-Stone offers a comprehensive range of funeral and cremation services designed to honor every life and meet the unique needs of each family. Traditional funeral services, memorial ceremonies, and celebrations of life are crafted with deep respect for personal, religious, or cultural traditions. For those choosing cremation, the funeral home operates an on-site crematory, ensuring transparency, trust, and respectful handling of loved ones. Preplanning services allow individuals to make their wishes known in advance, relieving their families of difficult decisions during a time of grief. The team also takes special pride in serving veterans, arranging military honors, coordinating VA benefits, and creating meaningful tributes that reflect a life of service and sacrifice.

The Guilderland location, situated at 5216 Western Turnpike, opened in 1993 and provides a modern, welcoming environment for families. The facility features a spacious chapel, full accessibility including wheelchair-accessible entrances and parking, and ample on-site parking to accommodate gatherings of all sizes. Whether for visitations, funeral services, or receptions, the calm and comforting atmosphere helps families focus on remembering and honoring their loved ones.

DeMarco-Stone’s dedication extends beyond the day of service. The funeral home offers a virtual grief support group, the Healing Hearts Grief Support Group, which meets on the first and third Tuesday of every month to provide coping tools and connection for those navigating loss. Families consistently praise the personal attention, affordable options, and the genuine care shown by the staff, who are available 24/7 to offer immediate assistance.

With two accessible locations—one in Rotterdam and one in Guilderland—DeMarco-Stone Funeral Home remains a trusted partner in the community, committed to creating meaningful, affordable services that celebrate life and support healing.
