Serving Newfoundland, NJ and the Highlands with dignity, personal attention, and complete arrangement support.
When Joyce answered the phone, families didn't feel like they were calling a business. That's the detail that keeps appearing in reviews of Stickle-Soltesz Funeral Home, and it's the detail that defines everything about how this home operates. Located on La Rue Road in Newfoundland, they serve the quiet communities of the New Jersey Highlands, where people know their neighbors and expect to be treated accordingly.
From the first call, the staff takes on the logistical weight so families don't have to. One family needed to bring their loved one home from South Carolina. They made a single phone call to Stickle-Soltesz, and the entire transfer was arranged for them. Another family, exhausted after six months of caregiving, found that the staff had already thought of what they would need before they had to ask. That kind of attentiveness isn't a policy. It's a practice built over years of genuine service to this community.
With a perfect 5.0 rating across every review, Stickle-Soltesz has earned the trust of families during the hardest moments of their lives. The measure of that trust is simple: people who have been through loss here come back to recommend this home to others.
Stickle-Soltesz Funeral Home offers full-service funeral arrangements tailored to each family's wishes, faith, and budget. Whether a family needs a traditional burial, cremation services, or a graveside ceremony, the staff guides every step with clarity and patience. They also coordinate out-of-state transfers, handling the documentation, transportation logistics, and communication with other funeral homes so families are spared that burden entirely.
Pre-planning services allow individuals to document their wishes and ease the decisions their families will face later. The home assists with death certificate filings, obituary preparation, and coordination with local cemeteries and clergy. Every arrangement is handled with the same attentiveness regardless of the scope, because for this staff, no service is routine.
Families in Newfoundland, Sparta, Wanaque, and throughout Passaic and Sussex counties have relied on Stickle-Soltesz for personalized, unhurried care. The staff's willingness to stay available, answer questions, and adapt to what each family needs has made them a trusted name across the region.
