The Martin A. Gleason Funeral Home is family owned and operated, as it has been since its inception in 1913.

                          Why is a Family-Owned Funeral Home Better???

A singular focus. All of our attention is devoted to making our funeral home the best it can be in terms of satisfying the needs of our friends and neighbors.  We are not distracted nor bound by corporate mandates.  We’re more flexible. More responsive to your needs.

Personal pride. This is our business.  You can be assured we take great personal pride in keeping our facility and our vehicles in top condition.  We are also proud of our staff, and regularly pursue continuing education to maintain the highest level of professional services.

A long-term commitment. It is very important to us to not only fill your current needs, but to build a relationship so you will return to us in the future.  We have a long-term commitment to this community.

Today, as in many industries, The funeral profession has seen the emergence of national, and even international funeral service conglomerates.  But unlike other industries, these conglomerates rarely promote their presence.  Often, there isn’t even a name change.  And that makes it difficult for you, as a consumer, to easily tell the conglomerate-owned funeral firms from our family owned firm.  Without asking, you might never know if the owners you may have come to know and trust continue to make the day-to-day decisions which affect your family when you need the services of a funeral home.

Special Services Because we are attuned to the needs of the community, we can best provide any special services our families need.  From preneed planning to aftercare services, you can count on us to understand and provide for your needs.

A Personal relationship. When a family suffers the loss of a loved one, it can be comforting to know your funeral director.  We take every opportunity to be involved in our community, and to create the kind of personal relationships that will allow us to provide the individualized, sensitive service your family de serves.
