Get to know us
Smith Funeral Chapel was founded in 1956 by William and Agnes Smith and is now in its third generation of family ownership — with the county's first on-site crematory, a 240-seat chapel, and the same family answering the phone. Start wherever you like:
Our History
Founded in 1956 by William and Agnes Smith, and in 1982 the first funeral home in Eau Claire County to install an on-site crematory — a decision that still defines how we work.
Our Staff
The founders, the family who owns the chapel today, and Eliza and Arnie, our preplanning team — the people who answer the phone and stand in the room with your family.
Our Facility
A chapel that seats 240, a baby grand piano with a live pianist, video tributes and livestreaming, and Agnes' Dining Hall — ours for your luncheon, and rentable for community gatherings too.
Family owned means accountable
The people who own this funeral home live here, answer the phone here, and stand in the room with your family. When something matters, you are talking to the people whose name is on the building.
That is not a slogan for us. It is how this chapel has run since William and Agnes started it in 1956 — and it is why the family still owns it today.
