In 1946 Murnard and Florence England, who owned England's Funeral Home in Eugene, purchased the Schwering Funeral Home in Creswell. In 1979 the England's sold the funeral home to a Portland based company that owned several funeral homes and cemeteries in the Northwest. In 1995 that company was sold to a multi-national corporation based in Houston, Texas. The funeral home returned to local ownership in 2005 when it was purchased by the Musgrove family of Eugene.
