As a youth growing up in Johnson City, my parents taught me a valuable lesson: When I would shovel snow, mow lawns and wash cars for friends and neighbors. I was told that if I worked hard, honored my promises and was fair with people, I would make money and succeed. My father told me to charge a little less than others and provide a little more service than was expected. Some of my friends were happy to charge a few dollars more for any work they did, so they could make more money working less. As a result of being fair and completing my work as promised, I often found a person would give my name to a friend and I had another person to help. I never lacked work, and I learned a valuable lesson about business and helping others - Always provide more than people expect.

This is a lesson I continue to benefit from today. I believe in providing quality services at fair and reasonable prices. I understand that many in our community today have limited financial resources. I work hard to control my overhead and work harder to meet and exceed a family's expectations. I believe increasing the number of families I serve is the best way to keep prices low, not charging more from a smaller number of families. Select Hopler & Eschbach Funeral Home and your family will be served by a capable funeral director and staff committed to providing quality service at prices you can afford.
