Beezer-Heath Funeral Home

Beezer-Heath Funeral Home & Cremation Services, located at 719 East Spruce Street in Philipsburg, Pennsylvania, has been a cornerstone of the Moshannon Valley community for over seventy-five years. Founded in 1947 by the late Walter E. Beezer and John S. Heath, the funeral home was built on a foundation of compassionate care and dignified service. Over the decades, the business remained under dedicated family leadership, passing from Walter Beezer to Robert R. Heath, and later to Margaret Beezer, who continued the tradition until her passing in 1993. The Heath family—Robert, J. Charles, and R. Joel Heath—then assumed ownership, with Joel serving as supervisor until his death in 2016. Today, Emil L. Johnson, III, a licensed funeral director who has been with the firm since 1997, serves as supervisor, ensuring that the same high standards of professionalism and empathy guide every service.

The funeral home offers a comprehensive range of services to meet the diverse needs of families during their time of loss. These include traditional funeral services, cremation services, pre-planning options, and assistance with cemetery arrangements. The facility is designed to be accessible to all, featuring a wheelchair-accessible entrance and parking lot, and provides on-site parking for visitors. Beezer-Heath also maintains helpful partnerships with local florists and provides useful links to resources that can ease the burden on grieving families.

In addition to its core services, the funeral home keeps the community informed through a regularly updated list of obituaries and upcoming services, which can be found on its website. Recent obituaries and service announcements demonstrate the firm’s ongoing commitment to honoring the lives of area residents. The staff, led by Emil Johnson, works closely with families to create personalized tributes that reflect the unique personality and wishes of the deceased.

Beezer-Heath Funeral Home is a member of the Pennsylvania Funeral Director’s Association and the National Funeral Directors Association, reflecting its adherence to the highest professional standards.
