Roper and Sons Funeral Home

Roper and Sons Funeral Home Roper & Sons Funeral Home is now in our 120th year of serving Lincoln, Nebraska families with honor, integrity, and dignity.

Four generations strong and founded in December of 1901, Roper & Sons Funeral Home has been serving Lincoln families with honor, integrity, and dignity for 120 years. Roper & Sons Funeral Home was founded in December 1901, when Charles H. Roper began offering funeral services with Charles Beecher. The first facility opened at 124 South 13th Street, and began the longstanding tradition of offering

funeral services with the honor, integrity, and dignity that Lincoln deserves. The current building at 4300 O Street was opened in 1959 and continues as our primary facility today. Roper & Sons Funeral Home continues to uphold Charles H. Roper’s commitment to serving Lincoln residents and the surrounding communities as well as keeping the business in the hands of family. The business is now managed by Tom Roper and Dean Schneider, along with Bill Roper and Charles "Pooch" Roper.

When families tell us that they "received excellent service in a caring manner" at their loved one's funeral, we take that personally.

Serving families with kindness and heartfelt support is at the center of everything we do.

This Memorial Day, we pause to honor the brave men and women who served our nation with courage, sacrifice, and dedication.

At Roper & Sons, it is a true privilege to serve the families of veterans and active military. Honoring a life marked by service is something we never take lightly. From military honors to personal tributes, we are deeply grateful for the opportunity to help families celebrate the legacy of those who gave so much.

We remember with gratitude and respect.

Our first Memorial bouquet-making event was all we hoped it would be. Together, our guests created beautiful bouquets in memory and honor of the loved ones who continue to hold a special place in their hearts.

The afternoon was filled with remembrance, conversation, creativity, and connection. Thank you to everyone who joined us and shared this special time together as we reflect on the meaning of Memorial Day.

Thank you, Stem Gallery for your partnership in this event. 💐

Honoring the men and women who served our country is a beautiful tribute that sometimes gets overlooked. Including an Honor Guard is a quiet, moving way to acknowledge their service and offer deep respect for their commitment. It also brings families a sense of comfort that reflects what words often cannot.
