Personalized funerals and memorials

How will you honor your loved one’s legacy? At Behm Funeral Homes, we are experts at creating unique and memorable tributes that reflect a loved one's passions and personality.

If he was a world-class grill master, we can put together a celebratory cookout, complete with his secret dry rub recipe. Maybe her banana pudding and chocolate chess pie are worthy of a dessert buffet? We can display a collection of paintings or quilts, dress up in sports jerseys or theatrical costumes, or release 100 red balloons.

From small details like photos and funeral favors to custom decor and a live band—whatever the case may be—we will craft a memorial that warms hearts, lifts spirits and deeply reflects the life of your loved one.

We offer many planning ideas and resources.

History

In 1928, John P. Lucas opened Lucas Funeral Home. Frank J. Behm purchased John's funeral home in 1961, renaming the business Behm Funeral Homes. He added a second location in 1977, when he acquired S.P. Weaver Funeral Home in Waynesburg, extending a legacy of caring for families to that area.

For years, Frank was a mentor to funeral directors Chuck Behm and Greg Rohanna, sharing the importance of compassionate care and service excellence. In 2010, Behm Funeral Homes joined the Dignity Memorial family of funeral, cremation and cemetery service providers.

Chuck and Greg, along with a team of dedicated funeral professionals, continue to uphold Frank's ideals and commitment to this day.
