General Info

We are pleased to announce the opening of Passages Cremation Center, Modell’s new privately owned crematory. Conveniently located just 15 minutes away from our funeral home in Darien, it is our honor to provide the community with a locally owned option for a quality, trustworthy cremation provider. Ours will be the only funeral home in the immediate area that owns and operates their own crematory, bringing the number of businesses that families must trust with their loved one down to one. Beginning in winter of 2022, families will have the option to use our privately-owned crematory for their loved ones and will have the assurance that they will receive the highest level of care through every step of the process. Passages Cremation Center also includes a special witnessing room where families can be present for the start of the cremation process, allowing for a ceremonial send-off of their loved one. We look forward to offering this new service to families and creating a meaningful cremation experience.
