LAFAYETTE, La. — It started off as a funeral home built over a Desoto car dealership. Now, 100 years later, Delhomme Funeral Home is still around. And why? Because of you and a
matter of trust.
"Trust," says president Duane Delhomme. "In the funeral industry, trust and tradition is what keeps you going."
It's 19-21. Lafayette. And on the corner of Jefferson and East Cypress, Rene' Delhomme is juggling businesses: one earthly, and one with its eyes on heaven.
"Right at the underpass, where he had Delhomme Motors which was his Desoto automobile business; he had on the first floor where the cars were, and there was a mezzanine level where his office for the funeral home was," explains Duane, Rene's great-grandson.
