Since 1962, we've served thousands of families across Montgomery, Greene, and Warren counties. Our deep roots in the community mean we understand local customs, cemeteries, and clergy relationships.
Loss doesn't follow a schedule. A licensed funeral director is available any hour of the day or night to answer your call, arrange immediate needs, and provide calm guidance when it's needed most.
The Whitmore family has guided this chapel through three generations. We're not a corporate chain. Decisions are made here, by people who live in this community and care about it deeply.
We provide a full General Price List to every family—no surprises, no pressure. You'll understand every cost before making any decisions, and we'll work within whatever budget you have.
We've conducted services honoring every faith background and cultural tradition. Our staff is trained to accommodate your specific religious, cultural, and personal wishes with full respect.
Our chapel, visitation rooms, and reception area are all on-site—giving your family a private, dignified space without the need to coordinate between multiple locations.
The highest honor we receive is when a family returns to us, or refers someone they love. Here are a few of their words.
When we lost my mother unexpectedly, I didn't know what to do or where to start. The team at Evergreen walked us through everything with so much patience and kindness. I never felt rushed or pressured. The service was exactly what she would have wanted.
Our family has used Evergreen for three generations now. When my father passed, it was my turn to make the arrangements, and they made the process as peaceful as it could be. The chapel is beautiful and the staff treated us like family.
I pre-planned my own arrangements two years ago and the experience was wonderful. No pressure whatsoever—just honest conversation about my wishes and the costs involved. It gave me real peace of mind, and I know my family will be grateful.
Whether you've just experienced a loss, want to learn about your options, or are considering pre-planning—we're ready to help with a gentle, unhurried conversation.
