Leave a ❤️ below if our funeral home has been there for you.
Dering-Henson Funerals & Cremations was founded with one goal: to provide families with the best possible care during their time of loss. We have committed to continuing that same service for the coming generations.

❤️ Wise words from Brene Brown on compassion and connection:

My mom taught us never to look away from people’s pain.

The lesson was simple:
Don’t look away. Don’t look down. Don’t pretend not to see hurt. Look people in the eye. Even when their pain is overwhelming.

And when you are in pain, find the people who can look you in the eye.

We need to know we are not alone, especially when we are hurting.

This lesson is one of the greatest gifts of my life.

– Brene Brown

👉 Start the conversation with your family today.

Families fight over everything — who gets Mom’s china, Dad’s record collection, the “good” couch.
Don’t let your funeral expenses become another thing to argue over.

Pre-plan now, because the only thing worse than losing you… is losing the argument.

💙 Remember, grief is not weakness — it’s love in action.

MYTH: It’s important to “be strong” in the face of loss.

FACT: Feeling sad, frightened, or lonely is a normal reaction to loss. You don’t need to “protect” your family or friends by putting on a brave front. Showing your true feelings can help them and you.

Do you agree?

About us

History

Dering’s Funeral Home is a long standing establishment of Morgantown. It was originally formed in 1909 by Fred Dering then was operated by his son, Edward Dering for a number of years. In 1984 the Dering family sold the funeral home to local investors in the funeral business. After working for Dering’s Funeral Home for fifteen years, Thomas Henson had the privilege and honor of buying the funeral Home in 2008 and changed the name to Dering-Henson Funeral Home. He enjoys meeting and serving the people of the community and is proud Dering’s has been a community friend since 1909.
