Services
Krienen-Griffith structures its services around three pillars: immediate need response, advance planning, and aftercare support. The funeral home emphasizes reducing family stress through preparation and continues engagement through its year-long grief program.
Krienen-Griffith Funeral Home traces its roots to 1917, making it one of Delaware's longer-established funeral providers. The business operates from two locations: the original facility at 1400 Kirkwood Highway in Elsmere (Wilmington), DE 19805, and a second location at 101 West 6th Street in New Castle, DE 19720. Each facility maintains its own phone line—302-994-9614 for Elsmere and 302-328-9300 for New Castle—allowing families to connect directly with their preferred location. The funeral home positions itself around the principle that "every life is unique so every service should be as well," emphasizing personalized arrangements rather than standardized packages.
