About Us

Woody was born and raised in Marion, graduating from Marion Harding High School in 1990.  From there he attended the Ohio State University and graduated from the Cincinnati College of Mortuary Science in 1994.  He has been a licensed funeral director and embalmer since 1995 and worked in the funeral industry all of his life.  Woody and his wife Meredith have been married since the fall of 2000 and they have one son, Brody.  

Woody is a member of Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church, the Ohio Embalmers Association where he serves on the Advisory Board, the Ohio Funeral Directors Association, the National Funeral Directors Association and the Marysville Kiwanis Club.

Darrel Stanley began helping us in the Spring of 2004 in West Mansfield.  He is a retired mail carrier for the West Mansfield Post Office. 

Darrel knows just about everyone, and just about everyone knows Darrel.  We are happy to have Darrel on our team.

He and his wife, Diane, have 3 children and 6 grandchildren.

Mike began working with us in January 2012.  He and his wife, Joyce, moved to Marysville in the late summer of 2011 from Corning, New York, to be closer to their son, Greg, and his family who reside in Powell.  They are also the proud parents of Mike and Laura, who reside in Idaho and Missouri respectively and are grandparents to 6. 

Mike enjoyed a successful career in automotive sales and also retired from the US Army, serving 3 years active and 24 years in the Army Reserve.  Upon his retirement, Mike worked two years with a funeral home back in New York, and we are lucky he wished to continue in this line of part-time work after his move to Ohio. 

A member of Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church, Mike enjoys home improvement projects, walking his dog, Gabe, and baseball….a greater New York Yankee fan we have not found!
