Since 1935, the Dawson Funeral Home has been committed to providing the very highest standard of funeral service in the Tri-State Area. My grandfather, Frank A. Dawson believed in the creed of Rotary International: “Service Above Self.” His beliefs were passed on to me and still ring true today.
A promise I make to each and every family we serve is “we’ll do our best.” These words borrowed from the Cub Scout Motto is how we approach serving those who trust us with their most prized possession. If at any point in time you feel that we are missing the mark or not living up to our promise please let me know personally so that we can be aware.
The Dawson experience represents the very finest combination of service, facilities and value in the East Liverpool Area and beyond. The Dawson Funeral Home is continually recognized among its peers for its on-going commitment to excellence and is often recognized for its innovative and progressive practices. Each member of our team stand willing and able to respond to the needs of every family who selects Dawsons. We proudly remain locally owned, locally operated and committed to the highest standards in funeral service – always available and “doing our best” for you 24-hours a day.
