Wieting Funeral Homes, Inc.

Pielhop Funeral Homes, located at 215 South Main Street in Brillion, Wisconsin, is a family-owned funeral home that has served the community for over nine decades. Originally established as Luecker Funeral Home in 1938, the business has evolved through generations of dedicated ownership. In 1956, Merlin A. Wieting, Sr. and Evelyn Wieting purchased the Luecker Funeral Home and Furniture Store, founding what became known as Wieting Funeral Home. The Wieting family expanded the facility in 1968, incorporating the original Luecker Chapel into a modern funeral home. In 1972, the business became Wieting Funeral Home, Inc. when Merlin “Fuzzy” Wieting, Jr. joined the family. The funeral home acquired the Reedsville Co-op Funeral Home in 1985, extending its service area.

In September 2020, Sarah and Jason Pielhop purchased Wieting Funeral Home, Inc., renaming the business to Pielhop Funeral Homes while maintaining the same compassionate care and commitment to the Brillion and Reedsville communities. The website pielhop.com states, “When you choose Pielhop Funeral Homes, you are choosing 9 decades of locally owned and family owned funeral service.” The funeral home continues the legacy of service established by the Luecker and Wieting families.

Pielhop Funeral Homes offers a full range of funeral services, including traditional funerals, memorial services, cremation options, and pre-planning arrangements. The business provides personal services such as flower ordering through local florists and financial assistance for qualifying families. Both the Brillion and Reedsville locations are wheelchair accessible, with on-site parking and wheelchair accessible entrances. The Brillion facility also offers a tour of its handicap-accessible facilities. The funeral home regularly publishes current obituaries online and offers notification services to keep the community informed.

With a perfect 5-star rating from 24 reviews on Google Maps, the funeral home is recognized for its professionalism and compassion. The business is deeply rooted in local history, tracing its origins to the Luecker Funeral Home built in 1938 and the Techman-Wieting Funeral Home in Hilbert in 1953. By honoring this heritage, Pielhop Funeral Homes continues to provide meaningful support to families during their time of loss.
