About Us

Mr. John Park was the first funeral director in Centuria. He established the first funeral home known as Park Funeral Home. After his retirement it was purchased and operated by his son Jim Park.

In 1989 the funeral home was purchased by Raymond Rowe of Luck and named Park-Rowe Funeral Home. In 2004 the Park-Rowe Funeral Home became Rowe-Kolstad and in April of 2007 became solely owned by the Thomas Kolstad Family who has been proudly providing services since 1997.
