About Us

In 1908, Lilly & Zeiler Inc. Funeral Home was founded by Edward D. Lilly and Charles G. Zeiler. At that time, Mr. Lilly was a funeral director, employed by the G. France Funeral Directors and Embalmers Co., located at 403 S. Wolfe Street in Fells Point, Maryland. Mr. Zeiler owned and operated a local livery business that supplied horse-drawn carriages (referred to as hacks) for funerals, weddings, concerts, and other special occasions. 

Upon Mr. France's retirement, the two partners formed Lilly & Zeiler Inc.   

Lilly & Zeiler Inc. Funeral Home is now operated by a fourth-generation great-grandchild of Charles G. Zeiler and his daughter.
