Our History
The funeral home started in the 1880’s by Claus Salomon. It changed ownership around the turn of the century but continued in operation under the ownership of J.N Schnoor. The location of operation changed when J.N. Schnoor built the original and existing building on the corner of Broadway and 15th St. just a block and a half east of where it began. That building still stands with modifications and additions that began in 1936 when Walter A. Huebner purchased the funeral home from his employer J.N. Schnoor. Previously, three generations of Huebner’s had been funeral directors at the funeral home before the retirement of Walter R. “Butch” Huebner and Dennis Huebner. Michael Hoy purchased the funeral home in August of 2020 and he and his staff are continuing to serve the Denison community and surrounding towns of Crawford County with a tradition of honesty, integrity and dignity.
