Description
The Glunt Funeral Home and Crematory, Inc., as it is known today started in August of 1960 when Harry A. and Ivaleen Glunt purchased the B.C.Kiehl Funeral Home in Edinboro, PA. Bert Kiehl was the first funeral director at the 210 Erie Street location from 1935 to 1960. Ivaleen Glunt was the only Funeral Director in Edinboro until her son Harry D. Glunt earned his Funeral Director's license in 1965 and joined the staff, following his grandfather and mother's footsteps. In 1976 Harry D. Glunt purchased the funeral home from his parents and became the owner of the Harry D. Glunt Funeral Home. In 1995 the funeral home was incorporated as the Glunt Funeral Home, Inc. with Harry D. Glunt, as the president and supervisor. On September 25, 1999 Harry D. Glunt and 6 other independent funeral directors formed the "Independent Care Group, Inc." The group has expanded to 10 members made up of colleagues who have helped each other in the past and also share a similar philosophy. The purpose of the group is to control cost by joint purchasing and marketing, and combining efforts for prearranging funerals. Joining the staff in 2002, as a licensed Funeral Director was Harry's son, David T. Glunt, the 4th generation Funeral Director in the Glunt Family. In August of 2005 David was named the new president and supervisor of the Glunt Funeral Home Inc. In 2014, the Glunt Funeral Home purchased and installed its own crematory and the name was changed to Glunt Funeral Home and Crematory, Inc. Not many funeral homes of its size have their own Crematory but the Glunt's wanted to offer the piece of mind that their clients never have to leave their care. You are welcome to call us at any time of the day, any day of the week, for immediate assistance. We also provide a wealth of information here on our web site so you can learn more from the privacy of your own home.

The staff at Glunt Funeral Home and Crematory went over and above my family’s expectations while handling my Dads funeral. The professionalism we experienced was exceptional. While there was construction during the time Dad’s funeral was being held (certainly no fault of the Glunt’s) our family and friends were all able to gain access to the Funeral Home with very little inconvenience.

When my grandfather passed away last week, we were heartbroken. Glunt’s funeral home took care of any worries we may have had about the process of saying goodbye. They personalized our experience. David was warm and caring toward us. We felt like he was part of our family in the way he took care of our beloved grandfather. During the funeral service he made sure he explained what we needed to do as pall bearers in the ceremony. I had confidence in Glunt’s that they would make the calling hours peaceful and special for our family and they didn’t disappoint. From having tissues, mints, room for all of our many many photo boards, Dave was there to help us with any aspect of the process. If we had to choose a word for the way Dave Glunt and Glunt’s Funeral Home it would be compassionate. Thank you for everything you did to make us feel at peace in grandpa’s passing.

David Glunt took excellent care of our family when my grandfather passed away. He was 100% there for every question, concern, and detail. He walked us through every step of the way and we felt very, very well taken care of.

When my father passed away, EVERYONE at Glunt's made the experience as easy as possible! I feel like they are family because of the sensitive and caring manner they have! They handled all of the little details that I could not have thought of, before I knew they were needed! I highly recommend them!
