What is the history of Hultgren Funeral Home and Cremation Services?
In 1943, Paul Hanerhoff purchased the funeral home from the Young family and moved to our current location. He eventually removed three homes to build our current Wheaton building. After he passed away in 1976, Vern Hultgren purchased the business and moved his family into the apartment upstairs. In the 1990's, Tim Hultgren purchased the business. Together with his wife, Susan, they have completely remodeled the facility over the past two years. In the spring of 2022, Hultgren Funeral Home and Cremation Center will open in Carol Stream.
