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 on 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.

What do you remember? Do share..
Holding you & your memories in love.

When my daughter was younger, I found a page she had written in her journal that simply read, “Moon, dune, I’ll be with you soon.” I don’t know why, I don’t know what for - she doesn’t remember either - but still to this day, I say it […]

Speaking Grief is more than a documentary: it’s a movement. We’re going to help our society get better at grief. Our website is full of practical information about grief and grief support: speakinggrief.org

Avoiding hard conversations doesn’t protect us—it leaves those we love unprepared in life’s most vulnerable moments. Asking tough questions now is an act of love, courage, and care. The truth is, planning for death is one of the most powerful ways to show up fully for life. [image via ]
