We remember when people took the time to serve others.

Personal service. From our family to yours.
When the pastors of the Holy Cross Parish saw how fast the Easton community was growing back in 1967, they urged Robert J. Kane to establish a funeral home that would serve the large number of families that had moved into the area. Mr. Kane, who had been a licensed funeral director for several years, responded to the needs of the community, bought a historic building on Washington Street and founded the Robert J. Kane Funeral Home.

Mr. Kane has been serving the community for more than three decades, offering compassionate, caring personal service to the families of Easton and surrounding communities. In 1995, Stephen Raymond became co-owner of the Robert J. Kane Funeral Home after years of loyalty and commitment.
The belief of both Robert and Stephen was for the funeral home to remain independent and family-owned, while continuing the tradition of providing quality service to each family served through dependability, honesty, and care.
