What Separates Us From Other Firms
Family owned
Generations of Kitsap County families have trusted their loved ones care to Lewis Funeral Chapel and
The Poulsbo Mortuary. Today, many funeral homes operate not as family owed firms, but rather as part
of multinational corporations. Being family owned is a source of pride for our staff and the families we
serve experience the difference.
Convenience
Our locations in the city of Bremerton and in rural Poulsbo are central to the areas each serves in Kitsap
County. This makes Lewis Funeral Chapel and The Stone Chapel Poulsbo Mortuary convenient to you,
your family and friends. For families that do or do not have a church affiliation, our 300 capacity chapel in
Bremerton and 165 capacity chapel in Poulsbo are available for you to honor your loved one with a funeral
service or memorial service.
Personalized services
Our professional funeral home counselors take the time to understand and deliver the wishes of the
fami-lies we serve. All staff members are given the freedom to do what ever it takes to meet and exceed your
family’s expectations.
Price and Value
During one of the most difficult and trying times in your life, your peace of mind is of the utmost
impor-tance. We understand that we have only one chance to perform our work with sensitivity and
profession-alism. For over 100 years, our firms have fulfilled highest standards, offering the most value for what you
feel is appropriate to spend.
Local, In-County Service
Lewis Funeral Chapel and The Stone Chapel Poulsbo Mortuary staff members handle all arrangements,
start to finish, LOCALLY. Unlike many establishments, we own and operate our own crematory, so your
