Established in 1956.

We have 58 years of experience caring for families, families from all walks of life. Each family comes to us because they know we are leaders in our profession, dedicated to excellence in service, and having the highest integrity.

When we sit down with a family, we have just one goal: to create a fitting, memorable and affordable service for their loved one. Together, we explore the wide variety of services and products available, as well as a wealth of creative ideas and suggestions.

Together, we’ll design a memorial or funeral service that suits their needs now, and in the future. Families who come to us know that years from now, they will have deep peace-​of-​mind because in coming to us, they’ve done their best to honor their loved one.
