Our Family History

Abraham Gutterman, came to this country and built a livery business on the Lower East 
Side.
In 1892 that business became A. Gutterman Undertaker,  the first Jewish owned funeral 
business in Manhattan.   

Four generations later, and now into the third century, Gutterman Brothers, Funeral 
Directors is a Jewish funeral home owned and operated by his direct descendants, 
serving the Jewish communities of Hudson and Morris Counties with pride and respect.
Gutterman Bros.  is independently owned and operated by the Gutterman Family!
TRADITION and FAMILY, these are  foundations of our heritage.  It is with great pride 
that we, as a family, can provide outstanding service to the Jewish community in times 
of need. We focus on the importance of the customs and practices of Jewish Burial and 
in the manner in which the Jewish community is treated.  We are committed to providing 
you with the PERSONAL service that families deserve and expect.


We will always help you to make sound decisions to accomplish the task at hand of 
caring for your family member in a dignified and respectful manner.
