Published package clueThe official funeral-package page lists Traditional Services at $4,000.00, but families should ask for the current General Price List before making decisions.
Best shortcut: find the individual obituary first, then use the exact event address printed in that memorial. Do not assume every service, burial or reception is at 1417 E. Simcoe St.
Use the Official Syrie Funeral Home Obituary Page First
The official Syrie obituary page includes a search field for finding all obituaries. Start there when you need a current notice, a service date, a visitation time, a memorial service location, flower tools or guestbook access.
- Open the official obituary page at syriefh.com/obits.
- Enter the person’s full name first. If the result does not appear, try only the last name.
- Try a maiden name, former married name, nickname, middle initial or spelling variation when needed.
- Open the complete individual memorial instead of relying on a preview, search result or copied notice.
- Confirm identity using the person’s dates, family names, residence, service city and obituary details.
- Read the service block separately from the life story. It may include visitation, memorial service, funeral, burial or flower instructions.
- Recheck the official memorial before travel, livestream viewing, flowers or donations.
Sharing tip: copy the official memorial URL and share that link. A copied obituary text or screenshot can become stale if the family or funeral home updates the service information.

Micro-Step Guide: Find a Syrie Funeral Home Obituary
- Open the official obituary page rather than starting with an obituary aggregator.
- Use the search box for the person’s full name.
- If no result appears, search the last name only.
- Try common variations: maiden name, former surname, middle initial, nickname, accented spelling or suffix removed.
- Open the full obituary and check the person’s dates, family names and Lafayette-area clues.
- Look for service headings such as visitation, family receives visitors, funeral service, memorial service, burial or interment.
- Copy the exact event address and time before ordering flowers or starting navigation.
- Call (337) 235-2305 when the service is urgent and the memorial is unclear.
Service-Day Checks Before You Travel or Send Flowers
Viewing or visitationCheck date, start time, end time, location name and whether the family is receiving visitors before the service.
Memorial or funeral serviceConfirm whether the service is at Syrie Funeral Home, a church, chapel, cemetery or another venue.
Burial or intermentBurial normally has its own cemetery destination. Do not use the funeral-home map unless the obituary says the service is there.
Flowers and sympathy storeFollow the individual memorial’s flower or sympathy-store instructions rather than a third-party listing.
GuestbookUse the person’s official memorial if a guestbook or memory-sharing tool is provided.
LivestreamDo not assume a livestream exists. If remote attendance matters and no link is shown, call the funeral home.

Funeral Packages, Price Questions and Arrangement Appointments
Syrie’s official funeral-package page says families are not limited to package choices and may itemize services. It also lists Traditional Services at $4,000.00. Because prices and selections can change, use that page as a starting point and ask the funeral home for the current General Price List before making decisions.
| Need | What to ask Syrie Funeral Home | Why it helps |
|---|---|---|
| Current package details | “Can you explain what the current Traditional Services package includes and what is not included?” | The official page notes that casket or container costs may not be included in every listed choice. |
| General Price List | “May I review the current General Price List, casket price list and outer burial container price list if those choices apply?” | The FTC Funeral Rule protects the right to receive price information and compare itemized choices. |
| Arrangement appointment | “When can the family meet with a funeral director, and what documents or details should we bring?” | The first meeting may require legal name, date of birth, Social Security number, next-of-kin details and service preferences. |
| Death certificate copies | “Who files the death-certificate information, and how many certified copies should the family order?” | Banks, insurance, property, pension, benefits and succession tasks may require certified copies. |
Official price page: open Syrie Funeral Home Funeral Packages, then call to confirm current prices and itemized options.

Local Lafayette optionLafayette Parish Health Unit lists Vital Records among its services at 220 W. Willow Street, Building A, Lafayette, LA 70501.
