Cooper Funeral Home

Cooper Funeral Home Cooper Funeral Home is family-owned and operated, serving Jarvis area families for nearly 50 years.

In 1974, Martyn and Brenda Cooper moved to 1 Dennis Street in Jarvis. The plan was to open a funeral home on the upper level while turning the basement apartments into living quarters. In June of that same year, Cooper Funeral Home opened to serve the community. Over 30 years later, Martyn and Brenda’s eldest son Ian became a partner in the family business. He is committed to maintaining the fine

reputation earned by his father. As was the case in 1974 and still is today, our motto is: "Serving You As We Would Be Served."
