One of the few funeral establishments in the area still run by a single family is Adams-Green Funeral Home & Crematory. Since 1885, the same family has owned and operated this funeral home, which has served the communities of Fairfax and Loudoun counties with pride.
The Herndon Funeral Home is a historical landmark that sits on a hill overlooking the town’s first Town Green. The first funeral home in town was opened by Thomas Edgar Reed in 1885.
On most Sundays, our overflow parking is the back lot at Adams-Green Funeral Home. But that lot is not available Dec. 1.
If the meeting lot is full when you arrive please use street parking or the municipal parking lot on Spring Street behind Sully’s Pour House. Here’s a map. pic.twitter.com/u0HxFdTHJv

Ed Reed, his son, took over the firm in 1919 and constructed the current structure in 1920. In 1954, after purchasing the company, J. Berkley Green added a whole second floor and a chapel to the structure.
The current owners are renovating and enlarging the structure with an eye toward improving its long-standing character and welcoming vibe.
Unique features of the property include:
- its front porch lined with rocking chairs;
- a formal chapel capable of seating 125 people;
- many historic photographs of the surrounding community;
- two parlors; and
- numerous private areas to sit and reflect.
