Established in 1922 by Howard D. Morton, the Morton Funeral Home has been a pillar of compassion and support for families in our community. Originally serving as an ambulance service as well, Mr. Morton built a legacy of dedication and care. In the late 1950s, Virgil L. Howard assumed ownership of the funeral parlor, continuing the tradition of excellence set by his father-in-law.
