In 1914, A.T. Colbert and his son, Ollie M. Colbert, established the first and only funeral home in Gretna. The original building was a two-story structure located on the Main Street lot from where the business still operates today. The lower floor of the building was a general store; the upper floor was used for the funeral establishment.

Most of us plan ahead in life. We plan for our wedding, our children's education, family vacations, and other significant expected life events. We also plan for the unexpected events of life by purchasing home, auto and medical insurance. Understanding the benefits of pre-planning has prompted many to take the step to plan their own arrangements.
Many who have undergone the emotional strain of arranging a funeral within hours of losing a loved one have made the choice to pre-plan their own funeral. Doing so lifts the burden from their loved ones by relieving decision-making pressure at a time of grief and emotional stress. Funeral arrangements are a deeply personal choice.
Most of us are not prepared to plan and carry out a funeral ceremony for someone we love. And so much of the information available on this critically important subject fails to focus on what is most important: having a personalized, meaningful funeral that helps families and friends begin the healing process of mourning after the death of someone we love.

Everyone was so kind and caring to me and the family. They were always asking if there was anything we needed. They held my hand. They were very helpful thru all of the arrangements. Thanks to everyone at Colbert and Moran. Especially Mark. You were always concerned about our feelings. Thank you so much.
