Quam Plaisted-Cushman Funeral Homes

While Mr. Quam served in the armed forces in 1944, Mrs. Quam operated the business. After returning home in the fall of 1945, Mr. Quam bought the complete inventory of nineteen caskets and a 1933 Ford Hearse from Dr. Leif Almklov, who had been in the funeral home business in Cooperstown since 1898.

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.
