James Stephens

Meet James Stephens - Owner, 2025-Present

Within the first few weeks of helping around a small funeral home, I knew I was meant for funeral service. I feel it is a great privilege to care for the deceased and serve their surviving family members. I find great joy and incredible fulfillment as I help families manage their grief and plan meaningful and personalized services to honor their loved ones.


I grew up in Green Bay, the fourth of seven children. Following a two-year church service mission in Peru, I graduated from Utah State University. With my wife Alexis, we have four children, Weston, Jack, Calvin and Reese. As a licensed funeral director, I have been fortunate enough to manage and operate various funeral homes in Utah and Wisconsin. I am very grateful for the opportunity to continue providing the families of Oconto County with the highest possible level of service and compassion.
