Spear-Mulqueeny Funeral Homes strive for excellence in
every aspect of funeral service. Each member of our staff
is committed to the belief that we are here to assist in
the grieving process by offering quality service in a timely,
compassionate and cost-effective manner. While families
are different, each and every family member deserves the
commitment of respect from the staff of Spear-Mulqueeny
Funeral Home.
The Spear-Mulqueeny Funeral Homes have been a vital, care
giving member of Lake County for over 80 years. The Mulqueeny
Funeral Home was founded in 1922 by William Mulqueeny and
the Spear Funeral home in 1932 by John L. Spear. In 1975
the two firms merged and now offer two convenient locations
to better serve you. It is our commitment to provide the
finest service. Our driving force has been, and always will
be, to provide dignified, caring and quality service.
