Boone Funeral Homes has been in existence in Evansville, Indiana since the late 1800's. Founded as Klee Funeral Home at 1st Street and Ingle, Boone Funeral Homes then became Klee & Burkhardt Funeral Home at 4th Street and Chandler Avenue. In 1947, George W. and Charles W. Boone acquired the establishment and Boone Funeral Homes was formally born.
In 1985, John and Martha Maier bought-in with the Boone family and expanded the business into its present location in 1989 from Downtown Evansville to the rapidly expanding East Side of Evansville. Currently, Boone Funeral Home on Washington Avenue satisfies the needs of families from Evansville, Newburgh and the surrounding area.

Services
When planning a service, you have many options available to you and we will do all that we can to provide a beautiful and respectful ceremony. No matter your choice, we can offer you a space to join with family and friends in grief, comfort and love. And above all, we will do our utmost to honor your loved one.
When it comes to your final arrangements, shouldn't you make the decisions? The arrangements you make will reflect your exact wishes and desires. Pre-arranging your own service will help to ease the burden of your loved ones. It will also alleviate any questions, problems or differences, which can occur among family members.
The basic Military Funeral Honors (MFH) ceremony consists of the folding and presentation of the United States flag to the veterans' family and the playing of Taps. The ceremony is performed by a funeral honors detail consisting of at least two members of the Armed Forces. The Funeral Honors rendered to you or your veteran will be determined by the status of the veteran.
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) furnishes upon request, at no charge to the applicant, a Government headstone or marker for the unmarked grave of any deceased eligible veteran in any cemetery around the world, regardless of their date of death. When the grave is already marked, applicants will have the option to apply for either a traditional headstone or marker, or a new device (available spring 2009).
A United States flag is provided, at no cost, to drape the casket or accompany the urn of a deceased veteran who served honorably in the U. S. Armed Forces. It is furnished to honor the memory of a veteran's military service to his or her country. Generally, the flag is given to the next-of-kin, as a keepsake, after its use during the funeral service.

During a time when kindness and compassion matter, Jessica, Elizabeth, Jordan and the rest of the Boone Family showed both. They handled everything professionally but kept the human touch. We were able to focus on our family knowing that they would take care of everything else. We deeply appreciate the Boone family.
Thank you so much

The staff at Boone Funeral Home guided our family with compassion through every step of the planning when my husband was ill and after he passed away. Every desire was honored and every need was met-some before we knew there even was a need. We are forever grateful for the caring and professionalism shown to our family at this time.

Jordan and his team made the awful experience a little more bearable. He took the most excellent care of my husband and he went above and beyond by helping with anything I may possibly have needed before, during, and after the funeral. I would 110% recommend Boone Funeral Home to take care of your loved with the utmost respect and professionalism if you happen to need funeral services.
