History

Foyer at Showalter Blackwell Long Funeral HomeJohn L. Showalter, a Connersville native and graduate of Indiana College of Mortuary Science, was anxious to own a funeral home. In 1968, he and his wife, the former Judith Holtel, purchased the Baker Funeral Home with locations in College Corner and Liberty, and later the Fosdick Funeral Home in Liberty. In 1978, they formed Showalter-Blackwell Funeral Chapels with his long-time friend and associate J. Michael Blackwell and his wife, the former Sandy Howe of Connersville. They purchased Myers Funeral Home in April 1978.

One year later, Joel D. Long, originally from the Orange community in Fayette County, moved back to Connersville with his wife, the former Vickie Brockman, to take a position as a licensed funeral director. In 1998, the funeral home recognized Long's commitment to the business and the community, changing the name to Showalter Blackwell Long Funeral Home.

Today, Showalter Blackwell Long Funeral Home is a member of the Dignity Memorial® network of funeral, cremation and cemetery service providers, offering exclusive benefits and amenities as well as compassionate care and personalized service.
