Park Lawn keeps acquisition train rolling along
You can read in this press release issued yesterday by Park Lawn Corporation (PLC) that, effective yesterday, they added four stand-alone funeral homes to their company via the purchase of two funeral businesses in the suburban geographic area to the west of Chicago, Illinois.
PLC announced the purchase of the Fitzgerald Funeral Home & Crematory of Rockford, Illinois. . . . a firm that operates out of two chapels. The company also announced the purchase of Burke-Tubbs Funeral Home – Freeport and Burke-Tubbs Funeral Home – Forreston. Those firms are located in Freeport and Forreston, Illinois respectively.
Here’s what Park Lawn Corporation CEO J. Bradley Green said in a prepared statement in the press release from Park Lawn Corporation, “We are thrilled to expand our operating presence in the State of Illinois through the strategic acquisition of the Fitzgerald and Burke-Tubbs businesses. We are honored to welcome these esteemed businesses and their dedicated teams into the Park Lawn family. Their addition to our portfolio enables us to better serve Illinois families with the outstanding care and excellence for which these businesses are known.”
According to information from their respective websites, Fitgerald Funeral Home & Crematory was founded in 1914 and Burke-Tubbs Funeral Homes were founded in 1953.
Funeral Director Daily take: The privatization of Park Lawn Company certainly has not slowed down their acquisition rate. Just one month ago, Funeral Director Daily reported on a Park Lawn Corporation acquisition in Texas. Here is that article.
According to information contained in the press release, Park Lawn Corporation now operates in two Canadian provinces and 17 states of the United States.
