About
Report
Founded by Andrew Chomko in 1905 at the corner of South 7th Ave and Scranton Street and moved to our present location in 1925. The building remained the same until 1974 when Ed Sr. began a large renovation and expansion project. In 1988 and 1990 additional adjoining land was acquired for expansion and parking.

Pre-Planning
Report
Pre planning yours or your loved ones funeral is a relatively simple process. You can pre-pay funeral expenses with an irrevocable burial account or with an assignment from life insurance. The pre planning of a funeral is a burden that you or your loved ones will not have to cope with, after the loss of a loved one.
Veterans
Report
As a Veteran, you have entitlements. In the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, death certificates are at no charge (presently $20.00 each) for the veteran, spouse, and dependent children. From the federal Government, you are entitled to a burial flag, burial space and grave digging with grave marker in Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) run cemeteries, and your spouse may be buried with you at no charge.
FAQ’s
Report
How will current CDC guidelines and state mandates effect my loved one's funeral or memorial service? Current CDC guidelines suggest limiting attendance to immediate family and close friends, however the Governor of Pennsylvania has mandated indoor gatherings to no more than 25 people.
We are capable of having outdoor gatherings of up to 250 people, and we also have an option to offer our clients a drive-thru viewing or memorial service on our premises.The drive-thru option would be the same as a traditional viewing or memorial service, but outside under tents, with attendees passing through in their vehicles.
