📚🍎 Back to School Blessings! ✏️🚌

As students sharpen their pencils and teachers prep their classrooms, we want to wish everyone in Archbold, Wauseon, and Stryker a joyful and successful school year! Whether you’re heading off to kindergarten or college—or pouring into young minds as a teacher or staff member—this is your moment to shine.

May this year be full of growth, kindness, and new beginnings. And when challenges come (as they always do), may you be reminded of this promise:

“The Lord will guide you always; He will satisfy your needs… You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.” – Isaiah 58:11 🌱

Here’s to early mornings, packed lunches, hallway hellos, and all the memories yet to be made. You’ve got this! 💙

— With encouragement from all of us at Grisier Funeral Homes

💙 Plan Ahead, Protect Your Family’s Tomorrow

Life can be unpredictable—but your loved ones shouldn’t have to face the uncertainty of “What would they have wanted?” when the time comes.

Pre-arranging your funeral or cremation wishes is a loving gift you can give your family. It:
✅ Ensures your wishes are clearly known and honored
✅ Relieves your family of making difficult decisions during an emotional time
✅ Locks in today’s prices, protecting against future cost increases
✅ Gives you peace of mind knowing everything is taken care of

At Grisier Funeral Homes, we make pre-arranging simple, personal, and stress-free. We’ll walk you through every detail—at your pace, with no pressure.

📞 Call us today or visit us to start the conversation. Your family will thank you.

🌿 Sunday Thoughts 🌿
In a world that moves fast and never seems to stop…
Sunday reminds us to slow down.

To rest.
To reflect.
To reconnect.

Whether it’s gathering around the table, sharing quiet moments, or simply breathing in the peace of a slower pace — may today be a day to enjoy your people, recharge your spirit, and thank God for both.

From our family to yours, may your Sunday be full of grace, gratitude, and rest. 💙

🌤 “God doesn’t just move mountains… sometimes He hands you hiking boots.” 🥾⛰️

Not every obstacle vanishes — sometimes, He strengthens us to climb it.

But take heart:
“The Lord will guide you always; He will satisfy your needs… and strengthen your frame.”
— Isaiah 58:11

So lace up, trust the path, and know He’s with you every step of the way. 💪🙏

“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” — Psalm 34:18

Grief doesn’t follow a timeline. Some days are heavier than others.
But even in the darkest night, morning still comes.

If you’re walking through sorrow right now, may the rising sun remind you:
You are not forgotten.
You are not alone.
And healing—slow and quiet—is still happening.

Let today bring you peace.

📣 Thank You, Archbold Buckeye 🗞️

Today marks the end of an era in our small town.

For generations, the Archbold Buckeye has done more than just report the news — it’s documented our milestones, celebrated our victories, and stood by us through our toughest moments. From birth announcements to community events, sports scores to local legacies, the Buckeye has been a faithful thread weaving our stories together.

To the editors, writers, printers, and delivery folks — thank you. Your dedication helped keep Archbold informed, connected, and proud.

We celebrate your legacy today with deep gratitude and a touch of sadness. You will be missed — not just for what you did, but for who you were to this community.

🔥 Beat the Heat, Not Your Budget! 🔌

Northwest Ohio is hot this week, and we’re all feeling it! Whether you’re cranking the AC or hiding in the freezer aisle at the grocery store, here are some quick tips to stay cool and save energy during a heat wave:

☀️ Close blinds & curtains during the day to keep the sun from turning your home into an oven.
❄️ Use fans strategically — ceiling fans should spin counterclockwise in the summer!
🌙 Open windows at night to let cooler air circulate — if it’s safe to do so.
💡 Unplug unnecessary electronics — they generate more heat than you think!
🍉 Eat light — fresh fruits, salads, and frozen treats are your best friend.

From all of us at Grisier Funeral Homes, stay safe, stay hydrated, and check on your neighbors. A little kindness (and maybe a popsicle) goes a long way. 🍦💙

💙 With Deep Gratitude to Our Communities 💙

For 129 years and across six generations, Grisier Funeral Homes has had the privilege of serving the families of Archbold, Stryker, Wauseon, and the surrounding areas—not as strangers, but as neighbors, classmates, and lifelong friends.

This isn’t just where we work. These are the communities where we were born, raised, and now raise our own families. We’ve walked the same streets, attended the same schools, prayed in the same churches, and shared in the same joys and sorrows.

It’s because of your trust and support that we’re able to continue doing what we love—helping families find comfort, meaning, and healing in life’s most difficult moments.

As we look ahead, our promise remains the same: to walk gently alongside those grieving, to support and serve with compassion and care, and to honor the lives of those you love in ways that are deeply personal and profoundly meaningful.

Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your lives for over a century. It is our greatest honor to serve you.

Our Story

The Grisier family started in the funeral business in Stryker, Ohio in 1896. William and his wife, Margaret were the first generation in the business and turned the business over to his son, Wendell P. Grisier in 1909. Wendell and his wife, Frances ran the business and in 1936 his son, William (Bill) and his wife Helen Grisier joined the family operated funeral service.

In 1944, the Grisier's purchased a funeral home in Archbold, Ohio. At that point the Grisier's operated the business' together until William and Helen's son, Fred, came back to help with the businesses in 1958. In 1981, Fred's son, Todd, joined the firm upon Bill's retirement. In 1988, Scott, also Fred's son, joined the business and in 1991 the Grisier's purchased the former Edgar Funeral Home in Wauseon, Ohio.

In 1996 the Grisier's consolidated the Wauseon operation into the Edgar-Grisier location. In the fall of 2002, the Grisier family purchased the former Miller Funeral Home in Delta. In 2019, Grisier Funeral Homes welcomed generation number six back into the business in Adam Grisier.

Today, Todd, along with director David Fox, Jr. and apprentice Adam Grisier, and with the assistance of Bill Chester, Don Krieger, and Rebekah Boysel operate the four funeral homes, working hard to serve their communities with honor, excellence, and humility.
