Our Dry Ridge Chapel

Founded in 1920 by Harry Eckler, the Eckler Funeral Home has served families in the Dry Ridge, Crittenden, Mt. Zion, and surrounding areas for decades.  In 1962 a spacious chapel was built upon the site of a former Methodist Church, just across the driveway from the building that houses the offices and from 1934 to 1962 served as the chapel.  Upon Mr. Eckler's death, his son, John M. Eckler continued to operate the funeral home until his retirement in 1979.  James R. Hudson purchased the funeral home at that time and continued with many years of service to the community.  The Eckler-Hudson Funeral Home was purchased on July 27, 2007 by Bob and Lila McDaniel and extensive renovations have been completed since then including the addition of a refreshment/kitchen area adjacent to the chapel.
