History
Report
The Bryce Funeral Home was founded in 1917 at 2188 Fifth Avenue in the living quarters of the late Lowell H. and Evelyn Merrick Bryce. Troy possessed innumerable funeral homes in those days of 75,000 population, with much competition.
However, in 1936, Lowell purchased 1820 Fifth Avenue in downtown Troy, an authentic brownstone with iron fenced courtyard, providing his growing clientele a large mahogany paneled parlor and one of the first casket display rooms in Troy.A second brownstone at 1818 afforded an additional parlor when L. Merrick Bryce, Lowell's son, joined the firm in 1947.

Earth Burial Services
Report
To begin funeral planning, whether it be for pre-need or at-need the first decision should be to consider the final disposition, Burial or Cremation. This is a personal choice and one that may take time to consider. The one thing you should remember is that you can have visitation and a funeral with both types of disposition.
Cremation Services
Report
Cremation offers many different options in services, selections, personalization, memorialization and final placement of the cremated remains. In fact, there are actually more considerations involved in cremation than there are for burial. However, these considerations need not be overwhelming and your funeral professional can help you understand the choices.
