If a death has just happened

  1. Call the Jewish funeral home first — not the cemetery. The funeral home brings the deceased into their care, contacts the cemetery and the rabbi, arranges the chevra kadisha and a shomer, and knows what every office in this guide needs. If a hospital or hospice asks which funeral home, name a Jewish one; if the death was at home, the funeral home tells you whom to call.
  2. Decide where. If there is a family plot or a synagogue cemetery, say so; the funeral home confirms the space is available. If not, the cemeteries in this guide marked as selling to the public or confirmed by their office are the place to start, and the funeral home will call the offices for you. Take the time the family needs to choose well; the funeral home and the rabbi will tell you what timing is possible.
  3. Decide when. Jewish tradition favors burial soon after death, and funerals are not held on Shabbat or festivals. Within that, the funeral home proposes a time once the cemetery and rabbi are confirmed, and the family's needs — people travelling, a rabbi's availability — shape it. Your rabbi will guide you on what is right for your family.

Questions families ask

How many Jewish cemeteries are there near Tampa & Sarasota?

EverJewish documents 17 Jewish cemeteries within about 52.5 miles of central Tampa & Sarasota, across 9 towns — 6 standalone Jewish cemeteries and 8 Jewish sections within larger cemeteries. The nearest towns are St. Petersburg, Largo, Clearwater, Tampa.

Which Jewish cemeteries near Tampa & Sarasota are selling plots to the public?

No cemetery in this region has yet documented public plot sales on EverJewish. Most pages still say "details not yet confirmed" — call the office, and ask about membership as a path in.

How quickly can a Jewish funeral happen near Tampa & Sarasota?

Often within a day or two. What sets the timing: the cemetery's schedule, Shabbat and Jewish holidays (Jewish cemeteries generally don't hold burials then), the death certificate and burial permit, and family who need to travel. Waiting for close family is common. The funeral home will tell you the earliest time that works.

Which Jewish funeral homes serve Tampa Bay & Sarasota?

2 Jewish funeral homes are documented in the region: Segal Funeral Home — Beth David Chapel in Tampa; Robert Toale & Sons Funeral Home at Palms Memorial Park in Sarasota. Each page lists what is documented about tahara, shomer, Shabbat and holiday practice, and what remains an open question.

What should a family confirm before choosing a Jewish cemetery near Tampa & Sarasota?

Whether plots are currently available and to whom (members, the public, or pre-sold only); who may be buried there, including interfaith and section rules; costs in writing — plot, opening and closing, perpetual care, monument; and which funeral home the cemetery works with. Every cemetery on EverJewish can be asked directly from its page, and questions marked "planning ahead" carry no urgency.

How do I get pre-need prices from the Jewish cemeteries near Tampa & Sarasota?

Tell us once what you're looking for — how many plots, which section, your timeframe — and the Jewish cemeteries near you answer on EverJewish: availability, what's required, and pricing with payment plans. Offices that have joined answer in their own words; for the rest, your page shows what is on record and their number. No calls until you choose.

About this guide

EverJewish documents 17 Jewish cemeteries across the Tampa Bay & Sarasota region, spanning nine towns in Florida within about 52 miles of Tampa and Sarasota. The guide includes six standalone Jewish cemeteries and eight Jewish sections within larger cemeteries. Towns with documented burial options begin closest with St. Petersburg, Largo, Clearwater, and Tampa, then extend to Brandon, Lutz, New Port Richey, Sarasota, and Venice.

Of the 17 documented cemeteries, one — Jerusalem Gardens in Venice — has confirmed its details directly with EverJewish. Five cemeteries have detailed information compiled from their public websites.

Cemetery offices may confirm or update their information with EverJewish at no cost.

Two funeral homes serving the Jewish community are documented: Segal Funeral Home — Beth David Chapel in Tampa and Robert Toale & Sons Funeral Home at Palms Memorial Park in Sarasota. Because policies and availability vary among cemeteries and can change, families are encouraged to reach out directly to the burial locations and funeral homes they are considering to confirm the details that matter most during this difficult time.
