A modern Grand Junction funeral home

Designed by a funeral home architect and built in 1997 specifically as a mortuary and crematory, the Callahan-Edfast facility is a modern, welcoming place to plan a funeral or cremation. Warm, smiling associates, a water feature and a foyer with a soaring ceiling and amazing natural light help create a soothing and hospitable atmosphere for each family who walks through our doors.

The non-denominational chapel holds about 200 in traditional pew seating. Families are welcome to use our Clavinova digital piano; a modern audiovisual system allows us to play music and show multimedia videos. A private room with a restroom adjoins the chapel and lends a level of comfort to families.

The funeral home lounge and coffee bar accommodates about 30 people for a reception before, during or after a service.

Our private on-site crematory

Cremation is an increasingly common choice, but not everyone knows that cremation can also include a beautiful ceremony or even a viewing with visitation. From a cremation without a funeral service to a cremation with a memorial that follows, we help you understand the variety of arrangements that are possible and partner with you to create a unique service for your loved one.

Callahan-Edfast Mortuary & Crematory performs all embalmings and cremations at the Patterson Road funeral home. That means your loved one never leaves our care.

Let’s celebrate life

Grand Junction is a beautiful mountain town, nestled in the Grand Valley between the Grand Mesa and the Colorado National Monument. The natural beauty of this area draws people outside, and we specialize in planning outdoor memorials that take advantage of this special backdrop. Whether mountainside ceremonies, sunset celebrations and balloon or dove releases, we'll work to plan a funeral to your exact specifications.

We are always here for you, whether you are planning a funeral ahead of time or need immediate assistance.
