Jim Rush Funeral and Cremation Services

Jim Rush Funeral and Cremation Services We create meaningful experiences that honor a life well-lived. In 1963, Jim Rush came to work for Ralph Buckner, Sr as part of the Buckner Funeral Home.

Whether you are looking for a traditional funeral or at cremation options, our staff will exceed your expectations and prove that affordability and excellence can still go hand-in-hand. HISTORY & VALUES:

The business that is now known as Jim Rush Funeral & Cremation Service has been serving families in Cleveland for over 45 years. He stayed with the firm for years, and when the opportunity became available, Jim purchased the business in 1978. In 1993, the business became part of a larger funeral operation, but Jim continued to manage the business with his sons, Greg & Marc, who are both licensed funeral directors. To this day, the Rush family continues to run the business and make it a priority to operate as the same family-run business that has served the community for decades. We operate two facilities, one on Wildwood Avenue and one on N. Ocoee Street to provide you flexibility and choice. Families come to us because we provide the best service, tailored to your needs, and you can be sure that when you walk through our doors, we will treat you like you part of our own family.
