Welcome

A funeral home Hebron families can count on

Hebron does not have a funeral home of its own, so when a family in town loses someone, they need one they can trust nearby. Parker & Burns Funeral Home & Cremation Services is family owned and operated, just south of Hebron in DeMotte. We believe every family deserves care that is personal, unhurried, and worthy of the life being honored, whether that means a traditional funeral, a simple cremation, or a celebration that is entirely your own.

Services do not have to be held in DeMotte. We work closely with area churches and cemeteries, so your family can say goodbye at your own church in Hebron, at the graveside, or wherever feels right. We are proud members of the Hebron Chamber of Commerce, the DeMotte Chamber of Commerce, and the Indiana Funeral Directors Association.

When you call, you will get exceptional care. That is our promise, day or night.
