Crafton Funeral Home opened for business in October 1979. The building was build in 1936 and even though it was renovated for the business it still holds the ambience of that era.

The Craftons have 2 children - a son Patrick Crafton who is a licensed funeral director and embalmer and works in the business and is married to Kristen - a daughter - Mary Thomas Vincent who is married to Eric and has 2 children- Andrew and Connor. Toms son Patrick and his brother, Gary work in the business as a funeral directors as well as Derek Reser who is an apprentice. The Craftons take pride in their family owned and operated status and offer personal and dedicated service to the community.
Crafton Funeral Home offers the Lifes Tribute DVD (video) as well as a Lifes Tribute Collage. This is our most recent offering of ways to personalize the loved ones funeral or memorial service. The video is a collection of pictures chosen by the family that best depict their loved ones life. This is put to soft background music and can be played throughout visitation. The collage is a group of photos put together in an 8X10 portrait. Both these tributes are made in house and the photos never leave the building.
