Every life is a story—full of chapters that shape who we are and the legacy we leave behind. 📖✨

As Angela Agranoff beautifully said, “Every person is a book, each year a chapter.” Some chapters are filled with joy, others with challenge, but each one adds depth, meaning, and character to the narrative of a life well-lived.

We honor every chapter of your loved one’s story, celebrating the moments that made them unique and the memories that will be carried forward. If you’re reflecting on someone special today, may their story bring you comfort, strength, and a sense of peace. 🕊️

Supporting someone who is grieving can feel overwhelming, but understanding what they may be experiencing can make a world of difference. 💛🕊️

Grief isn’t a straight line. Many people move through phases like denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance—sometimes skipping a stage, sometimes repeating one, and always at their own pace. There is no “right” way to grieve.

By becoming familiar with these stages, we can offer better comfort, patience, and understanding to those who are hurting.

We’re here to walk alongside families through every stage of their grief journey with compassion and care. If you or someone you love needs support, please reach out. You’re not alone.

Every life is filled with dreams, goals, and meaningful moments still waiting to unfold. 🌟

Joseph Campbell’s words remind us that “Dreams and goals are coming attractions in your life.” Even in times of loss, hope has a way of gently guiding us toward new beginnings, fresh purpose, and the strength to keep moving forward.

We believe in honoring every chapter of a person’s life—from the memories that shaped them to the hopes they carried in their hearts. May we all find comfort in remembering the beauty of the past and courage in embracing what lies ahead. 🕊️

Our Story

My name is Ernie Heffner and I am the president of our family owned funeral homes. Although I am proud of our rich history which goes back more than 100 years.

You will not be embarrassed. Our facilities are comfortable and spotless. Our services are handled with warmth, dignity and respect. In fact we are so confident that you, your family and friends will not only be pleased but actually impressed with how we serve that we have a written guarantee! Since 1989, we offer every family a money back, 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. We take the risk out of selecting a provider. We feel our customers deserve no less.

If you are interested in cremation, you should know we own and operate our own private crematory so we know whose ashes are in the urn AND we return 100% of the recoverable ashes. To review a list of reasons and pictures as to why families choose us for cremation, read more about our Cremation Services here. You will find it all there.
