Knollcrest Funeral Home was established in 1989. When Robert Van Staalduinen and his family purchased the land where the funeral home is today, there were trees, an old farmhouse, and a barn. Robert and his wife Elaine built and decorated the funeral home with the goal of creating a comfortable, home-like place where people could come during a difficult time.

KNOLLCREST FUNERAL HOME & STEUERLE CHAPEL MAINTAIN A FULL TIME ADVANCED FUNERAL PLANNER

Paula Sexton is a funeral director with years of valuable experience. That experience makes her an even more diligent Pre planning Specialist. She's an extremely important asset in both of our locations, and even more important, to all of the communities we serve. Pre-planning has become more and more common. There's no question that an Advanced Funeral Planner like Paula can tell you why. "It's an important and very sound aspect of thorough financial planning, and more than that, it is a gift that offers a great sense of relief to survivors, relatives and friends", states Paula, adding, "so many decisions that have already been made, allows families a sense of peace that they are carrying out the wishes of their loved ones precisely as they wished."

Paula describes these premade arrangements as a way of releasing a family from a burden in the midst of terrible grief. It is a generous and unselfish process that offers peace to the family and the loved one prior to passing. The consultation is free of charge and comes with no obligation. It's definitely worth exploring.

If you have any questions or need any assistance at-need, or you’re considering pre-planning, please contact us. We’re here to help no matter what time of day or night you need us.
