With over 65 years of experience, we have established ourselves as a trusted and compassionate funeral home in Northeastern Pennsylvania.

Our History
Our journey began in 1954 when Thomas P. Kearney opened the doors to our Old Forge location. With the help of the G.I. Bill and a modest loan from his father, Thomas J. Kearney, a World War I Army Veteran, Thomas P. Kearney established the funeral home where it stands today, at 517 North Main Street in Old Forge. Over the years, we have grown and expanded to serve a diverse range of families, becoming the most trusted choice in funeral homes.
