Our funeral home was first located on West Washington Street and moved to 112 Main Street at the end of the 19th century. The building was the first one in the city to have an elevator. The furniture store business was on the first floor and the undertaking business was conducted on the second floor. In 1946, a specific building for the funeral home was constructed at our present location. The furniture store remained on Main Street until it closed in the late 1950's. An extensive remodeling project took place in 1973 and several extension and updates thereafter.
Ron Segert purchased the funeral home in late 2006. He graduated from Mortuary school in 1996 and received his Funeral Director/Embalmer license in 1997. Ron had worked in the funeral business prior to receiving his license and feels that good service is very important. He is a member of the West Chicago Lions Club, Chamber of Commerce, St. Mary's Church and West Chicago City Museum. Ron wishes to continue the tradition of the funeral home.
