ABOUT US

Who We Are

The Jones Funeral Home has been faithfully serving the Altoona and surrounding area families for over a century. We are proud of our heritage, commitment to excellence, caring and dedicated staff, and unquestionable integrity. The Jones Family sold and entrusted the business to Garrett Anderson to continue the legacy that was started by Edgar W. Jones back in 1915, followed by his son, Robert M. Jones Sr., then by his son, Robert M. Jones Jr. Garrett wants families to be able to focus on celebrating the life of loved ones and help you begin the healing process as soon as possible. 

Our caring and experienced professionals are here to support you through this difficult time. We offer a range of personalized services to suit your family’s wishes. You can count on us to help you plan a personal, lasting tribute for your loved one. We’ll carefully guide you through the many decisions that must be made during this challenging time. As a family-owned funeral home, we are proud of the quality of service and personal attention we offer each and every family.

You are welcome to call us at any time of the day, any day of the week, for immediate assistance. Or, visit our funeral home in person at your convenience. We also provide a wealth of information here on our website so you can learn more from the privacy of your own home.

Notable Funerals: Since the founding of the funeral home, we have served the Altoona-Johnstown Diocese by conducting services for five Roman Catholic Bishops: Bishop Garvey (1920), Bishop McCort (1936), Bishop Guilfoyle (1957), Bishop Carroll (1960), and Bishop Hogan (2005).
