Our History
Report
In 1920, John C. Burns bought a storefront on Norfolk Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Traditionally, funerals were held in the home and undertakers occupied small offices to meet families and show a small selection of caskets. As the demands of funeral service providers changed, a new trend of using a funeral home to have both the wake and funeral became more common to better serve the needs of families during a difficult time.
