About Us

This funeral home has been family-owned and operated since its beginnings in the early 1900s, when it was known as Franklin Funeral Home. In the late 1940s or early 1950s, Damon and Lou Edwards joined as partners, and the name became Franklin and Edwards Funeral Home. After Mr. Franklin’s retirement, it was renamed Edwards Funeral Home. In 1976, Larry and Carol Vanover purchased the business and renamed it Vanover Funeral Home, the name it proudly carries today. The Vanover family continues to own and operate the funeral home.
