Pre-need planning is just that: planning for a funeral, burial, or cremation arrangements before you need it.

Often, just like creating our estate plan, we might put it off or hesitate to talk to our loved ones about it for fear of being called "morbid."

But planning for the future isn't morbid. It allows you (or your loved ones) to make clear, thoughtful decisions without the stress, urgency, or emotional weight that often comes with a loss.

Pre-need isn't about “being morbid.” It’s about:

- Making sure your wishes are honored
- Avoiding financial or logistical confusion later
- And giving your family peace of mind.

Stay tuned for our pre-need checklist. ♥️

Did you catch Oakley and Bentley at the Jubilee Parade?

2025 marks our 150th anniversary, and we couldn't ask for two better mascots than the Funeral Doods. ♥️

Follow this peaceful green path to our Scattering Garden.

For some pet parents, holding onto ashes doesn’t feel right. Instead, they choose to let their beloved companion return to the earth. Here, we gently scatter their cremains, allowing them to become part of the natural world once more.

If you follow us or have visited our funeral home, it's likely you know about the Funeral Doods, Bentley and Oakley.

These small-town doodles are official employees and licensed therapy dogs. Whenever someone needs a shoulder to cry on, the comforting weight of a furry friend at their side, or the nuzzle of a wet, warm nose, these two are there to provide it.

Congratulations!

Visited Krill Funeral Service in Bryan, Ohio to present a resolution from the Ohio House of Representatives honoring Krill Funeral Service on its 150th anniversary.

Founded in 1875 by Henry Krill in Edgerton, 4 generations of the Krill family ran the funeral home before the new owner, Gary and Amie Burr, bought the company in 2021.

The town of Bryan Ohio is located in the northwest corner of the Buckeye state. It has a small train depot that still operates as an Amtrak station. In the parking lot is a historical marker that recalls the fastest train in America. The sixty-seven miles of railroad track from Toledo, Ohio to Butler, Indiana is the longest multiple track straight railroad line in the world. It was on this stretch of track that the New York Central Railroad Company tested the feasibility of operating high-speed passenger service.

In 1966, the New York Central Railroad modified a passenger rail car. They added an aerodynamic cowling around the bottom and on the top two jet engines for power. The engines were second-hand General Electric J47-19 jet engines, originally used as boosters for the Convair B-36 Peacemaker intercontinental bomber. The railcar M-497 was nicknamed the Black Beetle by the press and tested on July 23, 1966. The railcar with the jet engines strapped to the roof reached a maximum speed of 183.68 mph, an American rail speed record that still stands today.
