Roman soldiers legally were not allowed to marry, so they legitimized their relationships in death by dedicating gravestones of their loved ones. This practice transferred to Britain while military forts were shared by the Romans and the British.

Look what we found in the archives — best guess is that it was published in the 1990’s - decades ago! Times have changed, but our dedication to serving families has not.

We are closed today, to honour all who have served and still serve today take a moment to remember.

Have you ever heard of a fantasy coffin? In Ghana, people like to be buried in containers that represent their lives. It's believed that if the deceased is properly honored, such actions secure spiritual favor for the family left behind. Caskets have been shaped like planes for pilots, fish for fishermen and even a Mercedes-Benz for a businessman.

🎃 Happy Halloween from Piercy’s Mt. Washington Funeral Home 👻

As the pumpkins glow and the “spirits” come out to play, we want to wish our community a safe and happy Halloween.

We spend our days bringing comfort and peace — but even we can appreciate a little seasonal spookiness. 😉

Stay safe, be kind, and enjoy the treats (and maybe a few tricks)!

🕹️ Throwback Thursday!
Look what we found — an old board game featuring downtown businesses! 🏙️

Did you know Piercy’s Funeral Home first opened its doors in 1941? That’s over 80 years of serving our community with care and compassion. ❤️

We love these glimpses into local history — it’s amazing to see how much (and how little) has changed!

A common misconception about funerals is that they make us too sad. In reality, sadness is not something to be avoided when we lose someone we love deeply. Grief is a natural, necessary response to loss, and it's okay to feel it.

Funerals offer us a safe space to embrace our pain and begin the healing process. They allow us to gather with family and friends, share memories, and find comfort in the presence of others who also cared for the person who has passed.

Remember, it's okay to be sad. It's okay to cry. It's okay to feel. Funerals help us honor our loved ones and our emotions, creating a path towards acceptance and healing. 💔💐
