About Watson Funeral Home

In 1830, Paynter Frame Watson, an undertaker, cabinet maker and manufacturer of carriages, wagons and farm implements started a funeral home in Centerville, Delaware (currently Roxana). In the late 1800s, "in hopes of partaking in the expected new prosperity," the business was relocated to Selbyville, Delaware. In November of 1969, Richard T. Watson Sr. purchased from Ronald and Gladys James the present day location.

After 176 years of service, the family owned tradition continues today in the Heart of Millsboro, DE. We offer traditional funeral, cremation services and pre-arranged funeral services.
