About Ullrey Memorial Chapel

Ullrey Memorial Chapel was founded in 1942 by Sutter County Sheriff Bert M. Ullrey and his son Burwell William Ullrey, who served as Sutter County Coroner from 1942 to 1958. The chapel has operated continuously from its original Downtown Yuba City location for more than eight decades. The founding family held prominent roles in Sutter County civic life; during the 1955 Feather River levee failure — one of California's most destructive floods — Burwell William Ullrey, as county coroner, was the primary official responsible for managing recovery and identification of flood fatalities. Walter Ullrey joined the family business in 1946 as a funeral director and embalmer and remained active for nearly six decades. A third generation entered operations in 1970 when Burwell Leigh Ullrey joined the chapel, followed by a fourth generation in 1981 with the arrival of Damon Ullrey. The chapel's facility includes a dedicated chapel space, an on-site crematory, and private and identification viewing rooms. Among its historically significant holdings is a fully restored vintage Eureka Cadillac coach, recognized as the only known surviving example of that specific model built on a Cadillac chassis.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to plan a funeral?

Planning a funeral can vary in time depending on the arrangements and the individual's preferences. It can take a few days to a few weeks to finalize all the details. However, with funeral preplanning, you can take your time to make decisions at your own pace, ensuring everything is in place well in advance.

How much do funerals cost?

The cost of a funeral can vary widely based on factors such as the type of service, casket choice, burial or cremation, and location. According to the National Funeral Directors Association (NFDA), the median cost of a funeral with a viewing and burial in 2023 was approximately $8,300 (not including a burial vault, which adds another $1,695).

How much does cremation cost?

Similar to funerals, the cost of cremation can vary based on the type of cremation, urn selection, and whether you choose a memorial service. The NFDA reports the average cost of a cremation with a viewing in 2023 was about $6,280.

Is it cheaper to preplan a funeral?

Preplanning funeral arrangements can often be more cost-effective than arranging a funeral at the time of need. This is because you can lock in current prices and avoid future price increases. Additionally, prepaid funeral plans allow you to spread out payments over time, making it easier to manage financially.

How can I pay for a preplanned funeral?

Altogether offers flexible payment options for preplanned funerals to help you and your family members save money. You can pay in full with cash or a credit card or spread out the cost over time with a convenient installment plan.

Will my plans be able to be changed after I pass?

Generally, prepaid funeral plans and arrangements cannot be altered after the individual has passed away.
