Peinert-Dunn Funeral Home- Tontogany Chapel

Peinert-Dunn Funeral Home, located at 18620 Washington Street in Tontogany, Ohio, is a family-owned and operated funeral home dedicated to serving families in Wood County and surrounding communities with compassion, dignity, and personalized care. The business traces its roots to 1975 when Donald E. Dunn, Stephen C. Dunn, and Marvin W. Dunn founded the Dunn Funeral Home, building upon an existing funeral home tradition. Under the Dunn family’s stewardship, the number of families served increased sixfold in the first year alone, and the historic 1890s Victorian structure underwent three significant expansions — in 1977, 1993, and a later addition — to accommodate growing needs. Today, the facility features three large, enhanced parlors that can be combined into one larger chapel if needed, a flower receiving room, handicap-accessible restrooms, a spacious family lounge, and both interior and exterior elevators, ensuring a comfortable and accessible environment for all visitors.

In 2012, Dunn Funeral Home merged with Peinert Funeral Homes to form Peinert-Dunn Funeral Homes, solidifying its commitment to remaining family-owned while expanding its ability to serve the community. The Tontogany Chapel, known for its warm, homelike atmosphere, offers a complete range of services tailored to honor each individual’s unique life and legacy. These include traditional funeral services, cremation options, veterans’ services, memorial ceremonies, and graveside services. The dedicated staff works closely with families to handle all logistics, paperwork, and coordination with cemeteries, clergy, and other vendors, striving to lighten the burden during times of grief. Pre-planning services are also available, allowing individuals to document personal wishes and lock in current pricing, providing clarity and peace of mind for loved ones.

Peinert-Dunn Funeral Home serves families from Tontogany and nearby communities, including Bowling Green, Delta, Deshler, Grand Rapids, Liberty Center, North Baltimore, Toledo, and Waterville. The chapel is fully wheelchair accessible with on-site parking, and the facility maintains a family-focused environment where friends and relatives can gather to pay their final respects. While the business is currently listed as temporarily closed, it remains a trusted resource for those seeking immediate-need arrangements or pre-planning guidance. For more information, families can contact the funeral home by phone at (419) 823-4471 or by email at peinertinfo@aol.com.
