“Our Funeral Home was established in 1932 and is [what I would like to consider] a Community Institution. We are supportive of all the Churches, their functions and their needs. We are also supportive of the local organizations, such as The Kiwanis Club, Elks Lodge, Lions Club and the Mercy Center, that help others.
"Anyone can place an ad, we try to give our time as well, enhancing our community.
“It is a privilege to serve families in their time of need, you are doing something constructive celebrating life”
