About

The Grisier family started in the funeral business in Stryker Ohio in 1896. William and his wife Margaret were the first generation in the business and turned the business over to his son Wendell P. Grisier in 1909. Wendell and his wife Frances ran the business and in 1936 his son William (Bill) and his wife Helen Grisier joined the family operated funeral service. In 1944 the Grisier's purchased a funeral home in Archbold Ohio. At that point the Grisier's operated the business together until William and Helen's son Fred came back to help with the businesses in 1958. In 1981 Fred's son Todd joined the firm upon Bill's retirement. In 1988 Scott also Fred's son joined the business and in 1991 the Grisier's purchased the former Edgar Funeral Home in Wauseon Ohio. In 1996 the Grisier's consolidated the Wauseon operation into the Edgar-Grisier location. In the fall of 2002 the Grisier family purchased the former Miller Funeral Home in Delta. Today Todd and Scott along with director David Fox Jr. and with the assistance of Bill Chester operate the four funeral homes. Today 110 years later five generations of Grisier's continue to serve our communities.
