In 1908, Charles L. Verheyden, a 20-year-old native of Grosse Pointe, founded the first Chas. Verheyden funeral home. He opened his first location at his own home on Field Avenue, where he operated the business for two years. Then in 1910, Charles built one of the first funeral parlors in Detroit on Mack Avenue, near East Grand Boulevard. Charles operated this Detroit funeral home for 30 years until he moved the home to its present Grosse Pointe location in 1942. In 1951, Charles expanded the Grosse Pointe funeral home to double its original size. After these improvements, the renovated funeral home was and is still recognized as one of the finest funeral home establishments in the U.S. The Grosse Pointe funeral home is renowned for its charming Early American colonial architecture and furnishings. The home's comforting, warm atmosphere creates a sense of home for its guests. Then in 1995, Chas. Verheyden Funeral Homes, Inc partnered with William J. Duross, the owner of Duross Funeral Home in the Warren community. Today, both of our beautiful funeral homes continue to provide superior services and personalized, touching tributes for the families of Warren and Grosse Pointe. Our compassionate, professional staffs at each of these locations are here to serve you and guide you through the entire funeral process.
