HISTORY
For over a century
SHERMAN'S FLATBUSH MEMORIAL CHAPEL, INC.
has served the Jewish Community of Greater New York.
The establishment of this
service organization by the late WILLIAM SHERMAN, who was a veritable pioneer
among Jewish Funeral Directors, continued to grow under the incomparable
guidance of his son, JOSEPH SHERMAN, who left his own special imprint on
SHERMAN’S. He too was able to pass
on this family legacy to another generation.
ARNOLD E. SHERMAN and his son faithfully guided SHERMAN’S for decades until
the time of his passing. When
ARNOLD left this world, he knew that his son JOSEPH, who had worked by his side
for many years, would continue the sacred family tradition.
JOSEPH SHERMAN now carries the responsibility passed on from generation
to generation.
It is obvious that the evolution of this organization had undergone many
changes within the four generations. However, the one thing we will not change
is our personal care and concern for every family so that we can, in our way
help mitigate the pain during this period.
The exacting demands made upon us in moments of high emotional stress have met
with our tactful consideration and unquestioned integrity. Our motto has
been "service to those in need". This service is the most essential part of our
objective. The evidence of this spirit has been indelibly inscribed upon
thousands of unsolicited testimonials that have been gratefully expressed by the
families who have been serviced over the years.
It is a tradition with SHERMAN'S
FLATBUSH MEMORIAL CHAPEL, INC. to be prepared to serve day and night,
regardless of circumstances. Our staff is especially trained to be courteous,
thoughtful, and discreet in the arrangement and conduct of a funeral and is
instructed to give completely of itself to the needs of each family.
