Since 1955… personal attention from a full service mortuary

In 1955 when Naselle native son Eldred and wife Dorthy Penttila first opened the doors of Penttila's Chapel by The Sea in what was then the rural outskirts of south Long Beach, they committed themselves to serve this community with compassionate, sincere, caring and above all, personal service with attention to every detail, no matter the situation or family choice.  From Rosburg to Oysterville and points between and beyond, they chose to serve area families as they would themselves be served.

Fast forward to today, and you can see more than a few changes, and yet the same basic committment to families remains.  Since 1989 ownership has been by Ron and Liz Hylton ably assisted by Dan Hickey and Dale Staudenraus.   

By visiting our site, the only one of it's kind in the lower Columbia region, you have access to information about  service options, our facility, history, mechandise and other services we offer.  For over 54 years it has been a priviledge to serve area families and yet one thing hasn't changed: we still personally answer the phone "24/7" and when called, respond as needed, usually in a matter of minutes.  It's a tradition here and one we're very proud of. 

Eldred wouldn't have it any other way and neither would we.
