R. Johnson Family Mortuary E . R. Johnson Family Mortuary has been serving Galveston County and surrounding areas with empathy and reverence for several decades. In the summer of 2002, the Late Rev. E. R. Johnson acquired Fields Funeral which opened in 1949. The mortuary’s roots are ingrained deeply in the community by standing side by side with families as they take their first steps toward healing. Staff members are caring and experi- enced professionals who understand that each family is unique and has personal requests and traditions. These requests are of utmost importance to the staff of licensed funeral directors. The staff takes the time to help individ- ualize services for your loved one, so the celebration of his or her life is tied to personal beliefs and personality. PLANNING AHEAD The funeral home understands that making the multitude of decisions that come at a time of loss can be diffi- cult. The staff offers their support by providing clients with options as they consider making immediate ar- rangements. Many who have under- gone the emotional strain of arrang- ing a funeral within hours of losing a loved one have made the choice to pre-plan their own funeral. Doing so lifts the burden from loved ones by relieving decision-making pres- sure at a time of grief and emotion- al stress. Funeral arrangements are a deeply personal choice. Pre-planning pro- vides you with the time needed to make practical, detailed decisions that reflect your standards, lifestyle, taste and budget. And the funeral home assures you and your family that the choices you make will be carried out as planned. Consider E.R. Johnson Family Mortuary as your source for compas- sionate care and exemplary service.
