Ritchay Funeral Home

Ritchay Funeral Home Family owned and operated funeral home. Our funeral directors have collectively served the area for over 75 years.

Personal attention to detail and a wide range of services provided to area families is the greatest strength of Ritchay Funeral Home in Wisconsin Rapids and Feldner/Ritchay Funeral Home in Nekoosa. We’ve built our reputation on giving area families the perfection they demand and deserve. Our goal is to treat all families the way we would want to be treated – with respect and dignity. The Ritchay name has been trusted in the Wisconsin Rapids area since 1957. We are a second generation family-owned funeral business. Our competitive prices, overall value, and our “family to family” service are why our reputation is our best recommendation. When it comes to serving your family’s wishes and expectations, we will provide exceptional service. If we haven’t served you personally, we have probably served many of your friends and neighbors. We invite you to call or stop by and give us the opportunity to show you what we can provide you and your family. "Family to family service" - A Ritchay tradition.
