Our Story

Loveland Funeral Chapel has been serving the Grande Ronde Valley since 1922. The funeral home was originated by the Snodgrass and Zimmerman families, and was later run by the Dempsey, Coffey and Payne families. In October of 1999, Kevin Loveland purchased the funeral home. In the year 1999, we served 70 families. Last year we served almost 200 families. The reason for our growth is that we promise to give each and every family absolute unparalleled service. We will assist you in creating the most personal and meaningful tribute to your loved one to commemorate the life that was lived. We acknowledge that we cannot make the pain go away, but together we can make the journey of grief less lonely and a little easier.
