History

Coulee Region Cremation Group was founded on January 1, 2010. The plan was to start with low overhead in order to keep costs down and prices affordable. Being born and raised in the Coulee Region, this concept was designed to benefit the local community that didn’t have a cremation focussed option.

Through the years, the company has adapted to the changing needs of the families we serve. In the beginning, outsourcing was the focus. Overtime as the company grew, we are proud to offer inclusive services where everything is done in house. We have been the trend setter in the State of Wisconsin and will strive to keep Coulee Region Cremation Group at the forefront of the industry.

Whether you want a reception with a lunch in our dining room, an open-house gathering with your family and friends, or a traditional service with a minister, your expectations will be met. My wife, Tracy, daughter, Fin, son, Ben and I thank you for trusting us with your family. It is an honor and privilege to serve you. Let’s celebrate life together.
