Calhoun-Mania Funeral Home

When we purchased our Funeral Home 2009, the single most important promise to the families we would serve, would be to surpass any expectations they would have. We have worked steadily toward this goal by providing honesty, integrity and compassion to families. From the moment you enter our door to the final good bye of your loved one, we treat our families with compassion in thoughtful ways that

would give you the opportunity to preserve cherished memories. We want you to spend time here sharing stories and memories with us, your family and your friends and in a welcoming atmosphere and environment you can feel comfortable in and proud of. If your proud, we are proud, too. We are acutely aware that one of the most difficult calls you will ever make is to a Funeral Home to say the words that someone you love has passed away. From the moment we hear your voice we know it is up to us to assure you that your loved one will be treated with respect and dignity while in our care. When we meet you, our intentions are for you to be completely comfortable and cared for as if you were visiting an old friend in their home. This can only be felt with warmth that comes from within each one of us. We too, have experienced the loss of close family members and friends, so we understand. We are all in this profession because we want to be in it, we are extremely proud of what we do. We are also aware of the financial expenses for a funeral, especially when faced with the unexpected which can be intimidating when you are financially unprepared. There are many options, nothing about our Funeral Home is “cookie cutter” because we know each situation is different. We hope that families who don’t know us will consider and trust the Calhoun-Mania Funeral Home by allowing us to continue our tradition of service since 1884, for all families of various Faiths, Races, Cultures and financial needs in the community. We take great pride in offering a traditional ceremony that is dignified and affordable, tailored to meet every family's special needs, customs and budget. We are committed to providing unparalleled attention to detail, something you deserve and should always expect. Mania, CFSP

Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week and a time of deep reflection, and it is significant because it fulfills Old Testament prophecies about the Messiah, particularly Zechariah 9:9, which foretold a king coming to Jerusalem riding on a donkey. This event marks Jesus' triumphal entry into the city, symbolizing peace and the fulfillment of God's promises.

Wishing you joy, peace, and reflection as Holy Week begins.

Did you know that a new permanent sign has been installed at the Woman's Club of Rutherford (founded in 1889), located at 201 Fairview Ave. It now proudly stands on the club’s property near the corner facing Fairview Avenue.

The planning process began nearly a year ago, when a two-person committee was formed to bring the project to life. Leslie Beck, Club Vice President, and I, Club Trustee, eagerly began working on the design, colors, and lettering in collaboration with Majestic Sign Company.

What began as a very amateur sketch from me — one I was hesitant to even share — quickly became some what of the foundation for something special. Once we started, we were fully committed. During our travels, we paid close attention to signage everywhere we went, gathering inspiration from top to bottom. After exploring several ideas and dedicating over a year to the process, the sign is now complete and beautifully in place.

With the approval of our Executive Board and the continued support and guidance of Club President Laura O’Connor, the vision became a reality. Leslie and I felt strongly that the sign’s aesthetic should reflect the spirit of the organization — feminine, elegant, classic, and welcoming. The final design features a soft off-white background with gold leaf lettering and trim, creating a timeless and refined look.

We are incredibly proud of the result and hope the community enjoys it as much as we do. This spring, flowers will be planted and the sign will be professionally illuminated to enhance its presence even further.

It is with deepest gratitude, we extend our heartfelt thanks to the Borroto family for their generous donation in loving memory of their mother, Ida Borroto. Ida was a cherished member and past president of the Woman’s Club whose dedication, warmth, and leadership touched so many lives.

Through their kindness and generosity, her legacy continues to inspire and uplift our community. This project is made possible in part because of their meaningful gift, and we are truly grateful.

Sincerely,
Debra Mania and Leslie Beck
