History
Heritage Funeral Homes was formed by the joining together of a group of like-minded and respected funeral establishments in Milwaukee: The Scheuerell family began serving Milwaukee in 1914, and passed that tradition through to James Scheuerell. In 1965 Wilfred Tebo and his sons-in-law James Peppey and John B. Klemmer started their own firm, and in 1975 John T. Klemmer joined Tebo Peppey Klemmer. Gillette Johnson & Sons dates back to the 1930's, with Gillette's son-in-law Raymond Reiss joining the business. Today, Tim Johnson and Mark Reiss continue their Grandfather's and Great-Uncle's traditions of integrity and service. In 1995 James Scheuerell, John Klemmer, Timothy Johnson and Mark Reiss merged their respective businesses to form Heritage Funeral Homes. In 2007 Altstadt Tyborski Ermenc McLeod joined Heritage Funeral Homes. Altstadt Tyborski has served the families of southeast Wisconsin for over 100 years, and will continue to do so as a part of Heritage Funeral Homes.
