Our History
Walton’s Douglas County Mortuary in Minden was established
by Edward B. McCaffery, Jr., to bring the same level of service
excellence to the families of Minden and the surrounding area,
as that of Walton’s Chapel of the Valley in Carson City.
Since
1959, Ed McCaffery’s vision of funeral service excellence
has led to his expansion into other communities in Nevada and California
through the construction and acquisition of new facilities. In 1986,
Mr. McCaffery’s daughter, Tammy Dermody joined with him to
continue this vision, creating what has come to be known as the
“Walton’s Family of Funeral Homes”.
Walton's Douglas County Mortuary is entering a new era with the planned construction of a new, beautiful facility in Minden that will provide the families of the area with an even higher level of service, convenience and facilities. Our professional staff at Walton's Douglas County Mortuary consider themselves not just Funeral Directors, but Event Planners. We have helped thousands of families through their most difficult times of need, and it is our mission to help each family create a meaningful tribute to their loved-one. We offer all of the elements necessary to create a complete and coordinated service, including flowers and monuments. We are always available to assist families at the time of need or with pre-planning.
Continuing the Tradition of Service Excellence
Following decades of growth by building a reputation for providing
services of dignity and respect, Walton's Family of Funeral Homes now
operate twelve funeral facilities, a cemetery, five crematories and
mausoleums. These facilities serve the communities of Reno, Sparks,
Carson City and Minden, Nevada and Susanville, California.
Waltons Family of Funeral Homes remains independent
and family owned, with Tammy Dermody and Ed McCaffery overseeing
daily operations.
