Anderson Funeral Home

Anderson Funeral Home Anderson Funeral Home & Cremation Services is a family owned funeral home in St. Paul, Minnesota.

The firm was founded as the "Johnson & Sons" funeral home at 932 Payne Avenue. The funeral home was purchased by Harold & Melba Anderson from the Johnson family in 1943. Funeral Director Harold Anderson was joined in his profession by his sons Ronald Anderson in 1964 and Jeffrey Anderson in 1979. The funeral home eventually outgrew its facility on Payne Avenue, and a new building was constructed o

n Arcade Street (Highway 61) a block south of Phalen Park Golf Course. Harold Anderson died in November of 1988, but his sons continue to operate the mortuary. Anderson Funeral Home stands as a testament to care and concern for families of the Saint Paul and surrounding suburbs who have suffered the death of a loved one. Many funeral homes today have been acquired by large multi-national corporations, but we at Anderson Funeral Home have always prided ourselves on providing the personal service every family deserves at a fair and reasonable cost.

The Grief Room opened more time slots for community. They rent out space by suggested donation with no one turned away lacking funds.

Our funeral home is a steward of The Grief Room, donating and supporting in every realm that we can. We believe so deeply in it's existence. It's part of the solution & rebuilding of our grief landscape.

Minnesota, we are holding us all in love as we navigate more community death and grief.
