Pielhop Funeral Homes

Two locally owned funeral homes & cremation care centers in Brillion & Reedsville. Luecker Funeral Home was built in 1938 in Brillion. Luecker retired.

For 18 years, the Luecker Family served the community until Fred L. The Wieting Funeral Home legacy began in 1953 when Merlin A. Wieting, Sr. and Harvey Techman began operating the Techman-Wieting Funeral Home in Hilbert. In 1956, Merlin Sr. and Evelyn Wieting moved to Brillion and purchased the Luecker Funeral Home and Furniture Store from the Luecker Family, starting the original Wieting Funeral

Home. In 1968, a building expansion project began, encompassing the Luecker Chapel built in 1938, to the funeral home it is today. In 1972, Wieting Funeral Home became Wieting Funeral Home, Inc. when Merlin "Fuzzy" Wieting, Jr. joined the family business. In 1985, the Reedsville Co-op Funeral Home was purchased by the Wieting's. Previously, the Co-op Funeral Home was opened in 1939. In 1945, the Cooperative bought Shimon Funeral Home and retained Edward Shimon as their funeral director. The funeral home building was retained until 1959 when the Co-op built the new funeral home on the same location as the previous building. In 1994, Merlin Sr. passed away. This lead to the corporation known as Wieting Funeral Home, Incorporated to be restructured into two separate corporations; Wieting Funeral Homes, Inc., owned by Merlin “Fuzzy” Wieting, Jr. and Wieting Funeral Home of Chilton. This now meant that in 1995, Fuzzy Wieting solely owned and operated both the Brillion and Reedsville funeral homes. In September of 2020, Jason & Sarah Pielhop purchased Wieting Funeral Home, Inc., its' assets and the properties from Fuzzy and Kathy Wieting. They will continue the legacy of care, compassion and support that the Wieting’s have shown for many decades to the communities as Pielhop Funeral Homes in Brillion and Reedsville and throughout Northeast, WI. When you choose Pielhop Funeral Homes, you are choosing 9 decades of locally owned and family owned funeral service.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who has placed an order!

The second banner installation will extend toward the cemetery and throughout Peters Park. The Brillion Lions Club is also working with the City of Brillion to identify additional installation locations.

We will continue accepting orders for the third installation through June 26. Orders received after that date will be processed for next year's display.

The banners will remain on display through Veterans Day and will be safely stored during the winter months. Our goal is to display the banners annually from Memorial Day through Veterans Day as a lasting tribute to our veterans.

Thank you for helping us honor those who have served. 🇺🇸
