Funeral and Burial Services for Quincy Township Families

When a Quincy Township family loses a loved one, they need a funeral home that will walk with them, step by step, through every decision. Thomas L Geisel Funeral Home offers traditional funeral services, including visitation, a formal funeral service, and a graveside committal, arranged with the same care whether the family is planning weeks in advance or arriving at our door within hours of a loss.

We also arrange memorial services and celebration of life gatherings for families who prefer to honor a life without a traditional service structure, and we coordinate burial with area cemeteries on the family's behalf, since we do not operate a cemetery of our own. For Quincy families who served, or whose loved one served, we provide dedicated veterans and military funeral honors, working directly with local posts and the appropriate military branch to arrange full honors.

If you would like to understand each step in advance, our team is glad to walk you through the process in plain language.

Many Quincy families also ask about combining a funeral or memorial service with cremation. Because our facility includes its own on-site crematory, we can offer a traditional viewing followed by cremation, all without transferring a loved one to a third-party facility. Whatever combination of services your family chooses, our team is ready to talk it through with you, without pressure and on your own timeline. Call (717) 264-6416 whenever you are ready to begin.

Why Quincy Families Choose Thomas L Geisel Funeral Home

Funeral service has been the Geisel family occupation since 1919, and the current firm has served Franklin County families since Tom Geisel purchased the business in 1983, moving to its present Falling Spring Road location in 1993. Today the firm is led by fourth-generation funeral director Thomas L. "Tommy" Geisel II, continuing a tradition the family calls "A Family Serving Families."

Our 13,000-square-foot facility, which includes a dedicated stained-glass chapel, allows us to host visitations and services on-site without renting outside space. Our on-site crematory means Quincy families never need to send a loved one to another provider for cremation. Local families have left us more than 127 Google reviews averaging 4.9 stars, and we have received Franklin County Community's Choice recognition for "Best of Franklin County."

Our licensed funeral directors, including Chad E. Starliper, Jeremy R. Shoemaker, Adam Winegardner, Erika McKissick, Hunter Martin, and Tim Wilt, along with Advance Planning Specialist Lisa Mayes, bring decades of combined experience to every Quincy family we serve, whether the need is immediate or the family is pre-planning ahead.

About Quincy Township, Pennsylvania

Quincy Township sits in southeastern Franklin County, bordering Adams County to the east, and takes its name from President John Quincy Adams. The township's roughly 5,300 residents live across two distinct landscapes: a western half that lies in the Cumberland Valley section of the Great Appalachian Valley, an agricultural area with elevations between 650 and 1,100 feet, and an eastern half rising into South Mountain, where the Appalachian Trail crosses the township on its way toward Caledonia State Park.

The borough of Mont Alto sits surrounded by Quincy Township's northern edge as its own separate municipality, and the township is also home to Mont Alto State Park, one of Pennsylvania's oldest state parks, bordering the much larger Michaux State Forest. Pennsylvania Route 316 connects Quincy Township north to Chambersburg, the Franklin County seat and home to Thomas L Geisel Funeral Home, and south to Waynesboro, while Route 997 runs through the township's center toward Mont Alto and Scotland.

Because Quincy Township has no funeral home of its own, families here have long looked north to Chambersburg, about a 20-minute drive along Route 316, for funeral care within Franklin County.
