We'd like to thank Bob and the entire GreifShare Team for giving a wonderful presentation at last week's Remembrance Service. Several members shared their own loss and gave a powerful message about grief during the holiday season.

Colvin Funeral Home, being a successor to the firm of Dimick & Maxam Furniture and Undertaking that started in Princeton in 1852, has continued to be a local family owned and operated funeral establishment.
Colvin Funeral Home, Inc. has maintained a tradition of offering professional, yet personal service that has been associated with the Colvin family since 1908 when Oliver Colvin moved to Princeton. With his four sons joining him and then taking over the business, they continued to be well respected for the quality of service they provided.
There were four young men who worked with the Colvin brothers and were able to learn the skills and obtain the ability to provide that “special touch” that was associated with the funeral home. Joseph "Joe" Maxey, Richard "Rick" Hickrod, Mark R. Walter, and J.B. Wells purchased the funeral home from the Colvin family in December of 1977 and continued the legacy of quality service.
Colvin Funeral Home took an opportunity to provide quality service with another funeral home that had also been well respected in the area. The Corn Mortuary of Oakland City was purchased by the four owners and David Corn in December of 1993 to form Corn-Colvin Funeral Home, which has enabled them to continue providing professional and personal services, that both funeral homes have been noted for.
As a continuation of service to the community in 1994, they felt a need to provide monuments for families in our area. They formed the Tri-State Monument Company which provides a wide range of colors, styles and types of granite at the lowest possible prices. Tri-State Monument is located at 106 E. Brumfield, on the corner of North Main and Brumfield in Princeton.
Colvin Funeral Homes help you create a service that will be meaningful to you and your family. We offer arrangements for funerals or memorials at the time of need and prearrangement and pre-financing of services before the need arises. We can help you arrange for all types of disposition, whether it be in ground burial, entombment in a mausoleum, or cremation. Colvin Funeral Homes are here to provide guidance and expertise for completing arrangements and services that extend beyond the funeral. We provide resources for grief recovery which help the families cope with loss, assist families with insurance claims, social security, and veterans benefits.
Colvin Funeral Homes are dedicated to service to others not by gold but by The Golden Rule. Please call us today if you have any questions or concerns. We are here to help.
