Family vs. Corporate

With so many corporately owned funeral homes in our area... choosing a Family Owned funeral home, like ours, is the better choice.

A singular focus

All of our attention is devoted to making our funeral home the best it can be in terms of satisfying the needs of our friends and neighbors. We are not distracted nor bound by corporate mandates. We are more flexible, and much more responsive to your needs.

Personal pride

Unlike a corporately owned funeral home, this is our own.  This is our town and this is our business. You can be assured we take great personal pride in keeping our facility and our vehicles in top condition. We are also very proud of our staff, and regularly pursue continuing education to maintain the highest level of professional services.

A long-term commitment

In a corporately owned funeral home, personnel changes occur frequently.  We all live here.  We are your neighbors.  It is very important to us to not only fill your current needs, but to build a relationship so you will choose to return to us in the future.  We are committed to our community, and when you need us, we will be here.

A focus on families, not profits

Corporations answer to shareholders. We answer to you. In our family-owned funeral home, there is no pressure from the corporate headquarters to increase profits. We understand our business will do well only when we serve you well.

A knowledge of local customs

Funeral traditions vary greatly around the country. We have a fine understanding and appreciation of our local customs and your expectations. The staff and management assigned to a funeral home by a corporation may be from another state or even a different country.  That can create a lack of awareness and cause disappointment when your expectations are not met.

An investment in the community

Just as you do, we turn to our neighbors for services and products. Whenever possible, we choose to do business with other local and family-owned and operated businesses. We also try to support all of our local charities, schools, sports, and other community efforts.

Special services

Because we are attuned to the needs of our community, we can best provide any special services our families need. From preneed planning to aftercare services, you can count on us to understand and provide for your needs.

A personal relationship

When a family suffers the loss of a loved one, it can be comforting to know your funeral director. We take every opportunity to be involved in our community, and to create the kind of personal relationships that will allow us to provide the individualized, sensitive service your family deserves.
