The history of our service to Delaware families begins a hundred years ago in 1906, when William E. Haines opened his funeral home in Wilmington. It was later purchased by John W. Spicer, and then merged with a funeral home owned by James Mullikin. For many years, we maintained three locations in Wilmington, New Castle (Wilmington Manor), and Delaware City. The Wilmington location was then sold, and we purchased a facility in Newark. The current owners, Frank C. Mayer III and Matthew C. Smith, continue the company’s century-old tradition of compassionate, dignified service.
