Our Story
Founding partners Steven Annecone and Robert Brady opened Lemon Bay Funeral Home & Cremation Services in Englewood in 1972.
The building that houses the funeral home’s newly renovated Englewood Chapel was built by the Father of Englewood roads, Peter E. Buchan, and originally opened as a store at Buchan’s Landing in the 1920s. The building became Tate’s General Store in the 1930s and later Tate’s Market. During the 1960s, the building housed an antiques store; it became the location of Lemon Bay Funeral Home when Steven and Robert launched their business.
Lemon Bay Funeral Home & Cremation Services is part of the Kays-Ponger & Uselton group of funeral homes, which became part of the Dignity Memorial network in 2018.
