David Funeral Home

David Funeral Home, now operating as Frioux-David Funeral Home, is a trusted funeral service provider in Abbeville, Louisiana, located at 2600 Charity Street. With a legacy of compassionate care that began nearly a century ago, the funeral home has deep roots in the Vermilion Parish community. Originally founded in 1937 by Mr. George Berges as Berges Funeral Home on St. Peter Street in New Iberia, the business was acquired by Mr. Dennis David in 1961 after Mr. Berges’ passing. The Davids built a new facility in 1964 at 1101 Trotter Street and renamed it David Funeral Home. For decades, the David family expanded their reach, acquiring W.L. Landry Funeral Home in Jeanerette, establishing locations in Youngsville, Loreauville, and Lafayette, and founding David Marble & Granite. They also acquired Jacquemoud Funeral Home, Hebert Funeral Home of Abbeville, and Broussard Funeral Home of Erath, and in 2004 purchased Beau Pre Memorial Park, now one of the region’s most beautiful cemeteries. In October 2024, Walter “Sammy” Frioux and his wife D’lisa—who had been part of the David team since 1997—acquired the business, forming Frioux Funeral Home and Frioux Marble & Granite. This transition ensures the tradition of local, family-owned service continues. David Funeral Home offers a full range of services including traditional burial and cremation, personalized funeral and memorial ceremonies, graveside services, and pre-planning consultations.
