It all began in 1852 when Peter Burkey started a cabinet making business in Hamburg, PA. Eventually he was called upon to make wooden caskets. The pairing may seem odd at first, but the very roots of the founding makes very good sense. Down through the generations, the Burkey Family served the needs of the greater Hamburg Area in both the funeral business and as cabinet makers.
Staff members of Burkey & Driscoll Funeral Home Inc. are caring and experienced professionals who understand that each family is unique and has personal requests and traditions. These requests and traditions are of utmost importance to our staff of licensed funeral directors. John C. Driscoll has been involoved in the funeral business since he was 16 years old.

Whether you'd like a funeral or a more creative celebration of life, we can assist you to select the funeral service options that hold the most meaning for you and your family.
Obituaries act as quiet reminders of the finite nature of our lives. Yet, for those who have recently experienced the death of a family member or friend, an obituary means so much more. It is a bittersweet reminder of all we've lost, but it can also help us to remember all we enjoyed while they were alive.
G. K. Chesterton wrote, Courage is almost a contradiction in terms. It means a strong desire to live taking the form of readiness to die. The men and women who served in the armed forces, whether during a time of war, or one of peace, are living examples of that contradiction. Each should be honored and remembered, so that our gratitude never fades.
