Services
The funeral home is an important part of any community. In addition to providing a variety of necessary services to the community such as burial services, cremation services, memorial services and celebrations of life, funeral homes also serve as resources for those grieving the loss of a loved one.
Funeral Services Throughout history, burial has been a common practice in human communities, large and small; around the world. Learn more about burial, the burial services we offer, as well as the basic components of a traditional funeral service in this section of our website.

We also have a total facility on-site generator in the event of a power disruption.

No benefit is paid to survivors upon the second spouse's death. The Veterans Administration (VA) will pay a burial allowance up to $1500 if the veteran's death is service-connected.

My husband's service was held here and it was the most personable, sweet & professional experience from start to finish.
I had never planned a service and had no idea what to do or what questions to ask. However, I was guided through the process and they made something unimaginably difficult become calm and soothing.
My heart was happy to have my husband honored at S. W. Brown & Son!
When loved ones are special - the place also has to be special and that is guaranteed here!

Absolutely the best! Pete made me feel comfortable from the time I walked in the door. He was incredibly knowledgeable, professional and compassionate. Brown and Son Funeral Home should be your choice if you want an expert in the field who knows how to give personal attention to families when we are going through this process.
