In January of 2011, Jason and Michele "Oz" Oszczakiewicz purchased the business from Mary Thomas after the passing of her husband Fran Thomas. Jason and Michele are local residents of the area and support the local businesses and organizations of Doylestown and surrounding communities. Jason is a licensed funeral director in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York and has been involved in the funeral industry since the age of 17. He can easily assist families when a death occurs across state lines due to his licensure in the tri-state area.

This can alleviate the financial burden that family members face when a loss occurs and assets are limited or depleted due to lack of planning or health care expenses. Varcoe-Thomas Funeral Home supports the local community by its memberships in the Central Bucks Chamber of Commerce, Doylestown Business Alliance, Doylestown Rotary Club, Knights of Columbus Council of Our Lady of Mount Carmel and other professional organizations and youth sporting programs.
