History

Located in Bloomington, Indiana, Deremiah-Frye Mortuary Greene and Harrell Chapel has provided burial and cremation services for more than 70 years.

Service excellence

In 1946, Orville Greene and Bob Harrell, a former funeral director of Allen Funeral Home decided to start their own funeral home, which they named Greene and Harrell Funeral Home. The original funeral home was located at Kirkwood and Lincoln. Funeral directors Don Frye and Ron Deremiah later joined Orville and Bob in 1970.

In 1973, Orville, Greene and Harrell sold the funeral home to Don Frye and Ron Deremiah, who changed the name to Deremiah-Frye Mortuary Greene and Harrell Chapel. Seeking a new location in 1975, Frye and Deremiah moved the funeral home to where it is today at 700 Gourley Pike in Bloomington.

Caring for today's families

Both gentlemen are retired today, but they still help serve our families from time to time. Today, our caring and professional funeral directors provide funeral and cremation services to the Bloomington community while delivering the same quality on which the funeral home was founded. Our team upholds this heritage and commitment to our families.

Scott J. Agnew along with other caring funeral directors, including Gary Arvin, Ann Kresler and Paul Clark, continue to serve the Bloomington, Monroe County, and Indiana University communities with extraordinary and compassionate funeral and cremation services.
