About

Schaefer-Shipman Funeral Home has been providing funeral and cremation services for Marysville, Washington, since 1904. For more than a century our commitment has remained unchanged, yet our funeral home has always responded to the changing needs of the community.

Let's celebrate life

Chapel at Schaefer-Shipman Funeral HomeEvery person's life is unique—and deserves to be celebrated with a one-of-a-kind memorial. At Schaefer-Shipman Funeral Home, we are skilled at creating singular tributes that reflect a loved one's passions, personality and individuality. Whether you prefer a traditional funeral service with a coffee-and-cake reception, an intimate memorial with close family and friends or an imaginative celebration with a live jazz band, golf-themed decor and a catered sit-down dinner, there's almost no limit to what we can do.

Now offering human composting

A new choice for nature lovers, conservationists and those who want to protect the planet for future generations, human composting is a more natural alternative to burial and cremation. Inside a vessel created especially for this purpose, organic elements, such as wood chips, mulch and wildflowers, gently transform a body into nutrient-rich soil. Your family may choose to use this soil to plant trees or flowers, or you can place it in a location meaningful to you. The remaining soil is sent to conservation land on the Olympic Peninsula to aid projects such as reforestation, improving soil health and restoring challenged ecosystems.

Caring and compassionate

Our funeral and cremation services are designed to help you through one of the most personal and challenging stages of life. We understand losing a loved one is an emotional and difficult experience, and we are committed to helping you with compassionate, professional and personal service. You can count on us to be there for you in your time of need.

We're a member of the Dignity Memorial® network of funeral, cremation and cemetery service providers, offering compassionate care and personalized service you can trust.

Please contact us if you need immediate assistance or if you would like more information about our services.
