Charles E. Brown and son, Clarence, of Hudson, purchased the former W.A. Satterlee Funeral Home of Addison, Michigan in October 1934. The W.A. Satterlee Funeral Home had been in business twenty-three years prior to the Brown's purchasing the facility. Charles E. Brown had conducted business in Hudson for forty years and his son had been associated with him for twenty years prior to the Addison facility purchase.

David L. Van Hemert started working for Clarence E. Brown and Son Funeral Home in 1954, upon his graduation from Wayne State University School of Mortuary Science. He moved to Addison from Muskegon, along with his wife and young daughter Brenda. Their son Robert was born in 1957 at Addison Hospital. David purchased the Addison and Hudson businesses on September 12, 1966. In 1967, David and his family moved to the Hudson location.

 Robert and wife Sheila moved into the Addison facility November of 1980 upon Robert's graduation from Wayne State University School of Mortuary Science. Robert manages the Addison facility. This establishment was operated as a business and home as their family began to grow. In July 1994 construction began on the current facility, which is located on U.S. 127, known as Steer Street in the village. The official opening was held on October 8, 1995. Robert and his family currently live in the old establishment, which is located directly behind the current facility.

We wanted our new facility to feel warm and friendly, and that certainly has been achieved. The interior throughout the building consists of warm, home-like colors complete with a fireplace, as opposed to the dark and cold decor found in many funeral homes. This 5300 square foot building can comfortably accommodate the needs of Addison and its surrounding areas. We have been honored with countless compliments by our visitors regarding how home-like and comfortable our facility is. If you haven't had the opportunity to visit our Addison establishment, give us a call and we'd be happy to provide a tour.
