Evan Glende, lifelong resident of the Fergus Falls area, together with Sam Miller, built the present facility in 1950 called the Glende-Miller Funeral Home. Years later, Adolph Johnson joined the firm and the name Glende-Johnson Funeral Home was adopted.

As part of the remodeling, a state-of-the-art 4,200 square-foot addition was constructed in what was the original funeral home parking lot. Among many other things, the renovation included the addition of a brand new chapel and crematory.
