Newcomer Funeral Home & Crematory Northeast Chapel

Newcomer Funeral Homes offer families an unusual combination of high-quality and low price. Funeral directors at heart are caregivers, and most funeral homes provide high-quality service. But providing that service at a low price is difficult. At Newcomer we have been doing that for almost 20 years. Our price is hundreds, often thousands of dollars less than other area funeral homes. And the quality of our service is so high that almost 98% of the families we serve would recommend us to other family members and friends.

Jessica and staff at Newcomer NE Chapel deserve 10 stars for the amazing job they did for our daughter's service. There were unexpected delays since we were bringing our daughter home from Seattle WA to Columbus, OH. The time, care and attentiveness they took for every detail was noticed and appreciated. The costs were fair and reasonable for the service you receive from Newcomer NE. Even though this is not a business that people wish to revisit for obvious reasons...I would HIGHLY recommend Newcomer NE Chapel.

On 3/20/24 I alone with my sister-in-law and another aunt went to Newcomer, Funeral Home. We met with Rebekah Just to get an idea on the services offered. 4/17/24 My niece passed away, and newcomer was contacted to come and retrieve her remains. Two of their employees arrived in the mist of a sunny, thunder/hail storm day.They were very gentle as they escorted her from the home. 4/19/24 We met with Joe this time. It was mother, two sisters and myself. Things were going well, so the sisters and I allowed the mother to send her daughter home in the manner she chose. We were all in agreement with what was said, I then asked what time we could view the body before the service? Joe informed us that they did not have the space for us to see our loved one prior to the day of service, what he offered was for the family to arrive one hour prior to the public viewing, which would allow us to make any corrections that we deemed necessary. This was new to us. We have always been allowed to view our loved ones the evening before in case there were adjustments needed. I joked with Joe that he should have money in his pocket, should he need to make a run to Dollar General to pick up makeup. One of the sisters mention that she had the wig and would like to style it and bring it over with the clothes. Everything is going well, times set It was decided that we would have the family there at 10am with viewing from11am-1pm service following 1-2 pm.At the end of the meeting Joe passed out Business cards to each of us he explained that he would be off the weekend, but should any issues or concerns arrive it would be easier to reach him by email, he would be checking through out the weekend.4/20/24 I called sister and we discussed the long time the family would be sitting there if they arrived at 10am I sent an email to Joe and sister called the office When Joe reached back out to me I found that we had more than the time of service to contend with. Joe, thought we were using their facilities for the service which was not the case. My niece had a church home that she was very active in until her illness so we would not have needed to use their facilities. Joe seemed a little put off by the change request which to me wasn’t that hard to switch since arrangements had just been made less than 24 hours and five days out from day of service. Unbeknown to Joe or myself the on-call person had already switched the location. Our only other issue was the long time the family would be sitting there. The family still arrive at 10 for their viewing with the visitation to start at 11 to 12 and the service would begin from 12 to 1. Joe and I ended up speaking via phone and Joe tried to make sure I knew I was not the next of kin to be making these changes. So even though there was time to change the time it was not done. 4/23/24 sister was to bring the wig over and do final touches but when she called around 5pm she was told that the body was not ready and she would not be able to do her hair. What they could do was send a picture to mom once she was dressed (didn’t) happen.4/25/24 I was the first family to arrive and my heart dropped. My niece’s face had foundation only and had an ashy cast to it. This is what my concerns not viewing prior to service was all about. Once the rest of the family arrived the sister took the blush and eyeshadow I had to bring warmth/color to her face this was during the visitation. Had we received a photo we could have asked them to add a little more color to her cheeks but that’s just another thing that didn’t happen. One of the cousins that works in the industry stated that her body was too low in the casket. I chose not to address this because all kind of things could have gone wrong. The Eulogist finished and turned the service back into the hands of the funeral home. The person left the sanctuary and someone other than Newcomer called for pallbearers.As they left the church the family was in the back of the line. Communication is key had we all done a better job some of this could have been avoided. Sandy H(aunt)

We don’t typically leave reviews but just had to say how amazing our experience was with Newcomer. Not only were the prices reasonable but the staff made us feel like family. Jessica Ball went above and beyond to make us feel at home and cared for during such a difficult time. We also worked with Rebekah, Liz and Joe. All were amazing, kind and the communication with our family was spot on. We were never out of the loop and never had to call in looking for anything. We were also never pressured to buy anything, given many options to choose from and answered all of our questions thoroughly and let us make the choices we wanted to make. Thank you for taking care of our mom and giving her the service she deserves. We can’t thank you all enough. We will always recommend Newcomer as again, they do treat you as if they are your family.

When considering funeral options for loved ones, many different decisions will need to be made: burial/entombment or cremation, simple or elaborate. A funeral can last minutes or days. It is a rite of passage that can be as unique as the individual reflecting their hobbies and lifestyle. It could also include aspects of their social, ethnic, professional and spiritual background. It is usually important to have a family conference before visiting our funeral professional to understand the wishes of the deceased as well as to make initial decisions and gather important information. Once you meet with our funeral professional, you will be asked first to consider how you want to honor and celebrate the life. Then we will turn to the question of how you want to care for the physical remains. A funeral or memorial service, whether traditional or contemporary, is the first step in healing. It is always valuable to remember that a funeral is a rite of passage allowing family and friends to remember and pay tribute to a life that has touched them in a significant way. We are here to provide professional guidance through those options serving the wishes of the family in all aspects.
