As we mark National Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness Month, we also honor those who care and provide for the victims of this devastating disease. The work of our Nation’s caregivers can be physically demanding and emotionally exhausting — especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, when caregivers have made substantial sacrifices to protect their loved ones suffering from Alzheimer’s.

Did You Know...that the conflict between the colonies and England was already a year old when the colonies convened a Continental Congress in Philadelphia in the summer of 1776. In a June 7 session in the Pennsylvania State House (later Independence Hall), Richard Henry Lee of Virginia presented a resolution with the famous words: "RESOLVED: That these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States, that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain is, and ought to be, totally dissolved." On July 4, 1776, the thirteen colonies claimed their independence from England.

Our History

In 1914 Stanislaus Fournier purchased a door-to-door funeral contract business, The National Funeral Association. He then sent his youngest son, Arthur V. Fournier to school to be a licensed funeral director and embalmer, and founded The Fournier & Fournier Funeral Home. Shortly after his other two sons Ovila and Hector joined the family business. The Funeral home was originally run as a storefront business, with wakes and funerals held in the family's home. A tenement on Cumberland Street was purchased in 1921, which is the location of the present Funeral home. In 1937 the building was renovated to include visitation rooms, and the wake was moved from the private home to the Funeral home.

Arthur became the sole owner of the Funeral home in the early 1950's and was joined by the second generation, two son-in-laws, Robert E. Darling and Robert G. Rock, and a nephew Roger H. Fournier.

The Fournier & Fournier Inc. Funeral Home has remained a family run business for over 85 years. The third generation of the Fournier family is now at the helm and continues to serve their families with the same compassion and understanding that preceded them.
