Markwood Funeral Home has served Keyser from 111 S. Mineral Street since 1878. The same address. The same quiet promise.
A licensed funeral director is awake, listening, and ready to help you take the next small step — at any hour, day or night.
A funeral is not a transaction. It is a moment a family will remember for the rest of their lives. We have treated it that way since 1878.
In 1878, Markwood Funeral Home opened on Mineral Street in Keyser. Built on a simple belief: every family in Mineral County deserves dignified, compassionate care — in their hardest hour.
Nearly 150 years later, we serve from the same address. The names have changed; the promise has not. We are here — day and night — for the families of Keyser and Mineral County.
