A Historic Dayton Landmark:
Our Dayton location isn’t just a funeral home—it’s part of the city’s heritage. Operating out of an 1865 Italianate/Second Empire-style house, the funeral home was built by Samuel D. Edgar as a wedding gift for his daughter. In 1988, Westbrock Funeral Home was proudly listed on the National Register of Historic Places by the National Park Service, marking it as a true landmark. This building, with its unique architectural details and historic charm, provides a comforting space for families to gather, reflect, and celebrate the lives of their loved ones.
