Hi Olivia,

I just wanted to say how amazing everyone has been. The people who helped at the funeral were incredible, there was an older woman, and I wish I remembered her name, but she was SO kind and SO compassionate and SO helpful to me throughout the visiting hours. I want to give her a big hug.

And thank you for making the whole decision making process not overwhelming. You have been so quick to respond to my questions, and just so kind and thoughtful. I am beyond impressed, and I thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

Our Story

Our History

Our Portland funeral home was originally founded as SS Rich and Son Funeral Home in 1838 by Samual Snow Rich. The business operated at facilities on Pearl Street, Exchange Street and Mellen Street before a new funeral home was constructed on Woodford Street in 1959.

At the time of the move, the new Portland funeral home became Jones and Rich Funeral Home, as Edward C. Jones became part-owner along with his father-in-law, Irving Rich. After the death of Jones in 1974, his widow, Elizabeth “Betty” Rich Jones, and her son, David Jones, took over the business.

On January 17, 2017, Jones, Rich and Hutchins Funeral Home unveiled a new name: Jones, Rich and Barnes Funeral Home, recognizing the continued leadership of industry veteran Robert Barnes, a certified funeral service practitioner and vice president of the firm. Barnes, a licensed funeral director, has a long history with the funeral home dating back to 1975.
