In 1913, John W. Embser purchased the struggling firm of James Earl. With the funeral parlors across from Fassett House and the two horse drawn carriages acquired from this transaction, he founded the Embser Funeral Home. The beginning years were difficult, but the Embser Funeral Home eventually gained a foothold in the local funeral business.
Walter and Richard, two of his children, joined the business after his retirement in December of 1938. By the time of his death, the Embser Funeral Home was thriving; it had sufficient property for expansion and was debt free. Walter and Richard Embser took on the task of running the funeral home, after many years of assisting their father.
