Bramley Funeral Home

Chester and Pearl Bramley opened the doors of Bramley Funeral Home in Divernon in June of 1924. Eventually their son, Charles, joined the family business and worked beside his father as they served the growing needs of their community. In 1991, Charles’ son, Tim, became part of the family business, which allowed them the opportunity to expand and add a second location in Auburn. Today, Tim owns the business along with his children, Sarah Bramley Jones and Tyler Bramley.

As one of the last family-owned funeral homes in the area, the Bramleys pride themselves on the compassion and care they have given to the grieving families of Divernon, Auburn and surrounding communities over the past 100 years. 

“It speaks volumes for a business to be able to thrive for 100 years,” Tim said. They recently purchased a new building in Divernon that boasts both a chapel and a reception area. “Since the original opening 100 years ago, we’ve seen the funeral industry evolve and change. We take every effort to learn and grow along with the times in order to best serve each family’s unique needs,” he said.
