Services
The funeral home occupies 1327-31 S Broad Street with four separate chapels and dedicated off-street parking lots accommodating over 75 vehicles—a significant logistical advantage in South Philadelphia's dense streetscape. The facility's capacity for large gatherings is specifically marketed as a distinguishing feature. The website offers virtual tours of the facilities upon request.
The funeral home emphasizes personalized tributes and cultural customization, particularly for families observing Asian funeral traditions. Their published content indicates hands-on guidance for specific ritual elements rather than generic multicultural accommodation.
Baldi Funeral Home and Pennsylvania Burial Company have operated from 1327-31 S Broad Street since 1921, making them South Philadelphia's oldest family-owned funeral establishment. The operation spans two distinct entities under shared family leadership: Baldi Funeral Home directed by Victor L. Baldi III, F.D., and Pennsylvania Burial Company supervised by Peter J. Jacovini, F.D. Together they maintain four chapels and parking capacity for over 75 vehicles—unusual amenities for an urban funeral home in a dense Philadelphia neighborhood.
The business has built particular expertise serving Philadelphia's diverse Asian communities, offering specialized Buddhist services under the name 东方殡仪馆 (Eastern Funeral Home) and NHÀ QUÀN AN TƯỜNG. Their published guides on Cambodian funeral chanting and Cantonese funeral traditions demonstrate institutional knowledge of specific ritual requirements including joss paper burning, incense offerings, and multi-day observances. This cultural specialization, combined with their century-long tenure in South Philadelphia, positions them as a rare provider capable of accommodating large gatherings with traditional Asian funeral customs in a historic urban setting.
