Our Story

We are family-owned and operated for four generations.

Doeppenschmidt Funeral Home was established in 1923 by Oscar and Emmie Doeppenschmidt. After Oscar's death in November of 1952, son Bennie and his wife, Ruth, took over operation.

Carl Doeppenschmidt started his service at Doeppenschmidt Funeral Home in 1970. He and his wife, Barbara, took over operation after the death of Carl's father, Bennie, in February of 1992.

Carl and Barbara continue the same tradition of service and care since the funeral home was established in 1923.
