Our Story

The Dawson Funeral Home was established in 1935, by the late Frank A. Dawson, upon the death of his predecessor, E.G. Sturgis. Mr. Dawson, who died in 1988, was a native of East Liverpool who believed in the community. He was deeply involved in supporting education, the service clubs, churches and various charities.

A Paul Harris Fellow with Rotary International, he constantly followed the creed of the organization: “Service above self.” His beliefs were passed on to his grandson, Frank Dike Dawson, company president. These family members, along with the entire Dawson staff, are committed to the high standards established by their founder.

Today, Dike Dawson represents the third generation of the Dawson family, along with our staff, provides the very finest combination of service, facilities and value in the East Liverpool Area and beyond. Holding membership in virtually every professional funeral association, the Dawson Funeral Home is continually recognized among its peers for its on-going commitment to excellence and is often recognized for its innovative and progressive practices.

Not only is the Dawson Funeral Home the only locally owned funeral home in East Liverpool, we offer more amenities than any other area facility.  The Dawson Family Center is a one-of-a-kind facility in the Tri-State area.  Our after-care programs are second to none.  The support and attention to detail is beyond expectation.

Available 24-hours a day, feel free to contact any of our staff by phone or email at anytime. The Dawson Funeral Home - We’re people who know you and people you can count on when you need us.
