About Us

The death of a loved one is a difficult time in your life and it is wise to make choices based on the quality of care you will receive. There is a difference when you call Wichmann and Fargo Funeral Homes. Since voting for funeral homes began in the annual Post Crescent "Best of the Valley" competition, we have been voted by the public as the "Best Funeral Home" each year. We feel this is one of the reasons why we are honored that more families turn to us for funeral services than any other funeral home in Northeast Wisconsin.

As a consumer, you have many choices in funeral homes. Some funeral homes will advertise as being low cost providers while others will cut corners on staffing and facilities. We feel the best approach is to provide the very best professional services, the finest facilities, and the most experienced and compassionate staff, at a fair and reasonable price. We offer the widest range of options. We are not the least expensive nor the most.
