James T. Etheridge, CFSP

Manager, Licensed Funeral Director (N.J. Lic.No.4148)

Jim has demonstrated dedication and leadership throughout his career. He graduated from SUNY Farmingdale in 1987 and shortly afterward received his New York State Funeral Directors license, enabling him to serve families with compassion and professionalism across New York.


In 1995, he obtained his New Jersey State Funeral Directors license. His commitment to the profession is evident through his various leadership roles. He served as the President of the Passaic County Funeral Directors Association from 2003 to 2005 and again from 2021-2023. He is an active member of the Tri-Boro Area Chamber of Commerce. Additionally, during 2003-2005, he served on The New Jersey State Funeral Directors Funeral Association Board of Directors and the Legislative and Law Committee. Jim is currently on the New Jersey State Funeral Directors Advisory Board.


Jim's dedication to professional growth is further highlighted by his qualification for the designation of Certified Funeral Service Practitioner (CFSP) by the Academy of Professional Funeral Service Practice. This designation is a national individual recognition in funeral service, granted to practitioners who voluntarily enter a program of personal and professional growth. Since its founding in 1976, it has aimed to recognize practitioners who strive to raise and improve the standards of funeral service and encourage continuing education as a lifelong process
