Officials of Becker Funeral Homes joined with Regional Chamber members, Mahoning County Commissioners, Boardman Township Trustees and others for a ribbon-cutting ceremony last week at the new Davis-Becker Funeral Home, 8536 Market St.
      The new 12,000 sq-ft facility is the Mahoning Valley’s most modern and comfortable funeral home, with many features that set it apart from other funeral homes in the area, including:
      •A large non-denominational chapel that can accommodate 200 family members and friends for services,
      •Four beautifully appointed viewing rooms,
      •State-of-the art audio and video technology, soon to include the ability to stream a live telecast of funeral services online via Skype to those unable to attend in person,
      •An adjacent Family Center for after-funeral dining, and
      •A monument store and flower shop on the Family Center premises
      According to Dan Becker, president of Becker Funeral Homes, “This facility represents a longtime dream of mine and was designed from the ground up to provide the ultimate in services to families in the Mahoning Valley.”
      The Davis-Becker Funeral Home in Boardman will serve Boardman, Beaver Township, Canfield, Poland, Youngstown and surrounding areas.
