About Us

Before coming to The Morrison Funeral Home, Jim graduated from SUNY Farmingdale in 1987 and shortly afterwards received his New York State Funeral Directors license. In 1995, he received his New Jersey State Funeral Directors license. In 2005 Jim was appointed manager of the funeral home and has been guiding and assisting local families in their time of sorrow and grief.  Recently Jim and his wife Jean purchased the funeral home and continue to carry on the customs and traditions that celebrate the lives of thoes that have entered eternal rest.  

Jim is the present and former President of the Passaic County Funeral Directors association, 2003-2005 and an active member of the Tri-Boro Area Chamber of Commerce. Also, during 2003-2005, he served on The New Jersey State Funeral Directors Funeral Association Board of Directors, and the Legislative and Law committee.

Jim qualified for the designation of Certified Funeral Service Practitioner (CFSP), by the Academy of Professional Funeral Service Practice. A number of professions grant special recognition to members upon completion of specified academic and professional programs and "CFSP" is funeral service's national individual recognition.

The Academy of Professional Funeral Service Practice, since its 1976 founding, has had as its goals:

1. to recognize those practitioners who have voluntarily entered into a program of personal and professional growth,
2. to raise and improve the standards of funeral service and
3. to encourage practitioners to make continuing education a life-long process in their own self-interest, the interest of the families they serve, and the community in which they serve.
