The Armentrout Funeral Home was
opened on September 1, 2001 by
Michael "Mike" and Pamela
Armentrout. The original funeral
home location was at the corner of
E. Wapakoneta and N.
Westminster Streets in what was
first built to be the Farmers
Commercial Bank. This building
after the bank closed its doors held
every imaginable type of store and
business, from a drug store,
hardware store, library, and several
other different offices. The
Armentrouts started work on the
project in late May and opened for
business that following September.
The funeral home was operated at
that location until February, 2005
when the operation was moved to
its present location at 200 E.
Wapakoneta Street. This was the
original funeral home building built
around 1941 and 42 by the
Weygant Family and subsequently
operated by the McAuley Family,
prior to its closing. The funeral
home building was then used as
private residence and housed the
Rice Barber Shop and also for a
foster home for boys before it was
totally renovated by the Armentrouts
with the help of a number of local
residents who volunteered their
time and skills. Since the move to
the original funeral home building,
the renovations and updates
continue. Some noticeable others
behind the scene, but all with the
idea of better serving the
community. Built on the principle of
providing the best quality services
and reasonable priced
merchandise, the Armentrout
Family continues to serve the
community and its ever changing
needs.
