Souers-Cardaras Funeral Home

Souers-Cardaras Funeral Home, located at 46 Fayette Street in Nelsonville, Ohio, has been a cornerstone of the community since the late 1800s. Originally established by Arthur Vorhees, C.L. Stout, and C.G. Johnson, the funeral home has a rich history of providing compassionate and dignified funeral services to families in southeastern Ohio. Over a century later, Souers-Cardaras continues to honor this legacy by combining time-honored traditions with modern amenities and a commitment to affordability.

In 1996, Van Cardaras purchased the funeral home from Nevin Souers, who had operated it for over 20 years with a dedication to high standards of service. Mr. Cardaras inherited this commitment, ensuring that the funeral home remains a trusted partner for families during difficult times. The current building, built in 1954, showcases the detailed craftsmanship of its era, featuring elegant French doors, plaster light cornices, and other period elements that create a warm, inviting atmosphere. Recent renovations include a newly completed family center with a large adjoining kitchen, offering additional comfort and convenience for families gathering to honor their loved ones.
