Roper & Sons Funeral Home is now in our 120th year of serving Lincoln, Nebraska families with honor, integrity, and dignity.

Four generations strong and founded in December of 1901, Roper & Sons Funeral Home has been serving Lincoln families with honor, integrity, and dignity for 120 years. Roper & Sons Funeral Home was founded in December 1901, when Charles H. Roper began offering funeral services with Charles Beecher. The first facility opened at 124 South 13th Street, and began the longstanding tradition of offering funeral services with the honor, integrity, and dignity that Lincoln deserves. The current building at 4300 O Street was opened in 1959 and continues as our primary facility today. Roper & Sons Funeral Home continues to uphold Charles H. Roper’s commitment to serving Lincoln residents and the surrounding communities as well as keeping the business in the hands of family. The business is now managed by Tom Roper and Dean Schneider, along with Bill Roper and Charles "Pooch" Roper.

In 125 years of serving families, we’ve also learned the importance of listening and being willing to change to meet families’ evolving needs and expectations.

At Roper & Sons Funeral Home, we’ve continually adapted to meet those needs—creating new options for families to gather and remember, using technology to bring people together, and offering resources and education to support them beyond funeral services. While our traditions remain important to us, so does making room for change.

When is the right time to preplan a funeral?

It's when you feel ready to make a few important decisions about what you want and share those with the people you love. Preplanning gives you the opportunity to consider your choices, ask questions, and make arrangements without the burden of leaving decision-making to your family.

At Roper & Sons, we’re here to help you take that step whenever the time feels right.
