History

Established in 1877.

The Morris Rosenberg Furnishing Undertakers opened for business in North Philadelphia to cater to the needs of the growing Jewish community. Later in 1911, Raphael-​Sacks entered the neighborhood to provide funeral services. These two legacy companies joined in 1958 and became Rosenberg’s Raphael-​Sacks.

In 1944, Goldsteins’ Memorial Chapel began its growth in the North Philadelphia community with founders Jack Goldstein and Ruth Snyderman becoming licensed funeral directors. It has long been believed that Ruth was the first licensed female funeral director in Philadelphia and the first Jewish woman to achieve this status.

In 1992, Goldsteins’ merged with Rosenberg’s Raphael-​Sacks. We now offer the Philadelphia Jewish community the benefit of nearly 140 years of experience with every service, pre-​arrangement or counseling we provide.
