Rhode Island Cremation Laws

Rhode Island requires a 48-hour waiting period before cremation. The state mandates that a licensed funeral director handle all cremation arrangements and obtain a medical examiner's approval.

Rhode Island's small market limits price competition. Consider comparing prices with nearby providers in southeastern Massachusetts or eastern Connecticut for potentially better rates.

We held my fathers funeral here and although this was a difficult time for my family, John and the staff were so kind and helpful throughout the process and made a difficult time as easy as possible. I cannot thank them enough for their kindness and professionalism from begining to end.

I have been here several times over the years due to losses of friends and family members. Unfortunately my own mother passed away a few weeks ago. For what is guaranteed to be a painful process, the professionals at Urquhart-Murphy make it as painless as you can imagine. Mr. Murphy is a very kind man. But the person I need to give a huge thank you to is funeral director John Weeden. John was available for us via phone call any time we had questions, was extremely understanding and thorough with us through the entire process, and he helped us create a beautiful Celebration of Life. We could not have accomplished this without John! I cannot thank him enough.

We would like to thank Quinn Funeral Home and especially Director, Julie Sudol, for making our mother's funeral a memorable and cherished experience. Julie is attentive, compassionate and professional in working with the family, and her execution of tasks and is amazing. From my first meeting with her, I left feeling such a sense of relief. So many of the details that I thought would be ours to take care of, she promised to do herself, and carried out that promise to us. She was available even on her busiest days. Thank you so much, Julie, and thank you to all the Quinn staff who accompanied us on that special day.
