Wagner Funeral Home

Wagner Funeral Home is a funeral service provider located at 17365 Johnson Memorial Drive in Jordan, Minnesota. The business is owned and operated by licensed mortician Joseph M. Wagner, who has been serving the community since at least 1999. In addition to its Jordan location, Wagner also operates a funeral home in Belle Plaine, Minnesota. The funeral home offers traditional funeral services, cremation options, and related arrangements, with on-site parking and wheelchair-accessible entrances and parking lots for the convenience of families during their time of need. Wagner Funeral Home has been a part of the local community for over two decades, providing end-of-life care and support to grieving families. The facility is designed to accommodate a range of funeral services and includes preparation and embalming facilities. As a small, family-operated business, Mr. Wagner personally handles all preparation and embalming work without additional employees. In recent years, the funeral home has been the subject of regulatory oversight. A routine inspection conducted by the Minnesota Department of Health in September 2017 identified several violations of Minnesota statutes governing mortuary science. These included improper storage of food items (applesauce from a family apple orchard) in the preparation and embalming room, failure to display required licenses, lack of proper documentation for decedent records, and inadequate availability of merchandise price lists. The department issued an administrative penalty order in November 2017, which was subsequently affirmed after a hearing in 2018. The order required corrective actions, including removal of prohibited items from the embalming room, completion of OSHA bloodborne pathogens training, and submission of proper forms. A total penalty of $7,500 was assessed, with $2,500 forgivable upon compliance and a non-forgivable penalty of $5,000. As of the most recent available data, Google Maps indicates that Wagner Funeral Home is temporarily closed, and the business remains unclaimed on Google with no official website listed. Despite these regulatory challenges, Wagner Funeral Home has historically been a recognized provider in the Jordan area, offering compassionate care and funeral services. The funeral home is licensed by the state of Minnesota and operates under the professional guidance of Joseph Wagner, who holds a mortician license.
