✨ The Wappner Christmas Tree at Kingwood Center Gardens ✨

Today, the Wappner Christmas Tree at Kingwood Center was lovingly decorated by Sara Brucker, Suzie Massa, and Kendall Mortimer, and it’s truly a beautiful tribute to the season and to the loved ones we carry in our hearts.

This year’s theme centers around the cardinal — a symbol of comfort, hope, and the quiet reassurance that those who have passed are still with us in spirit. Many believe that “when a cardinal appears, a loved one is near,” and our tree reflects that peaceful reminder through its warm, thoughtful details.

We invite you to visit Kingwood Center throughout the entire holiday season to experience the tree for yourself. May it bring you the same sense of calm, connection, and holiday warmth that it brought us while creating it. ❤️🎄✨

Today, and every day, we pause to honor the brave men and women who have served our country with courage, integrity, and selflessness. On this Veterans Day, we extend our deepest gratitude to all who have worn the uniform of the United States Armed Forces.

To our local veterans — thank you for the sacrifices you and your families have made to protect our freedoms and preserve the values we hold dear. Your strength and service continue to inspire our community.

We also want to give special recognition to the veterans who are part of our team. Your dedication, leadership, and commitment to excellence enrich our workplace every day. We are proud to work alongside you and grateful for the example you set.

Today we honor you, we thank you, and we remember that the freedoms we enjoy are built on your courage and sacrifice.

Thank you, Veterans, for your service.

Did you know? The building at 98 South Diamond Street in Mansfield — home today to the historical location of Wappner Funeral Directors — sits on land once owned by Johnny Appleseed (John Chapman). This remarkable overlap of frontier history and a long-standing local business speaks to how the land around us carries stories from many eras. Next time you pass by, you’re walking on the same soil where Chapman once planted nurseries and where generations later, the Wappner family began serving the community.

Autumn Beauty at Wappner Funeral Homes 🍁🌼

As the seasons change, we’re once again reminded of the beauty that surrounds us — especially in the vibrant mums now blooming around each Wappner Funeral Home location.

These colorful fall flowers not only brighten our grounds but also bring comfort and warmth to the families we serve. We are incredibly grateful to our dedicated maintenance team for their time, care, and hard work in planting and maintaining these beautiful displays. Your attention to detail and pride in your work never go unnoticed.

Thank you for helping create such a welcoming and peaceful environment for our community. 💛

Celebrating Excellence at the 26th Annual Scholarship Recognition Program

It was an honor for Wappner Funeral Directors to attend the 26th Annual Scholarship Recognition Program at North Central State College, proudly presented by the NCSC Foundation. Representing our team were Scott Baltzell, Kevin Harter, Sara Brucker, and Kendall Mortimer, who joined as donors and representatives of the Wappner Scholarship Fund.

The event was a wonderful opportunity to stand alongside fellow local businesses and esteemed Emerald Club Members in recognizing the outstanding achievements of this year’s scholarship recipients. Seeing the dedication and drive of these students—and the support they receive from such a committed community—was truly inspiring.

We are proud to support the educational journey of tomorrow’s leaders and are continually impressed by the exceptional things happening at this fine institution.

Congratulations to all the award recipients!

Where Do You Attend Church and What Traditions Do You Hold Dear?

We love hearing about the unique ways people gather to worship and celebrate their faith! Whether it’s a large congregation, a small community, or something in between, every church has its own traditions and practices that make it special.

Do you attend a traditional service with hymns and candles, or is your church more modern with contemporary worship and tech-driven sermons? Are there any particular customs or rituals that hold deep meaning for you, whether it’s a holiday tradition, a community event, or a way you personally connect with your faith?

We’d love to hear about the churches and traditions that are most important to you. Let’s share and celebrate the diversity of faith practices in our communities! 🙏
